Costco (COST) vs Walmart (WMT): Which is a Better Stock to Buy?

Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST) reported fourth-quarter results on September 24. Earnings came in at $6.75 a share against a consensus near $6.55. About $0.15 of that came from a one-off tariff refund, so the beat was narrower than the headline suggests. Comparable sales rose 9.4%. 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.
