The shares had eased 0.91% to $896.48 during the session before the numbers landed after the close, leaving them nearer the bottom of their twelve-month range than the top. Walmart Inc. (NASDAQ:WMT) has spent years being the cheaper, slower alternative to Costco. That gap has narrowed to almost nothing. Costco trades near forty-five times its past year's earnings and Walmart near forty.
