Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Costco (COST.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Costco's U.S. and Global Core comparable sales growth of 9% in September demonstrates the company's capacity to attract members with its exceptional value, diverse product offerings, and convenience across multiple channels. Even after accounting for an approximate 200 basis point increase in U.S. sales attributed to Hurricane Helene and port strikes, the core growth of over 7% continues to outpace the broader U.S. retail sales figures significantly.
Costco's September adjusted U.S. comparable sales showed a 9.3% increase, attributed in part to an approximate 2 percentage point rise from unusual consumer behavior due to port strikes and Hurricane Helene. These figures align with positive observations during store evaluations. Notably, non-food categories have continued to perform well, particularly jewelry and gift cards, increasing in the low double-digit range. It is anticipated that Costco's robust top-line growth will continue throughout the year, supported by their exceptional merchandising capabilities and distinct value proposition. Additionally, it's suggested that Costco may experience a short-term increase in memberships as a result of more rigorous checks at the point of membership card verification.
Costco's total and U.S. core September comparable sales growth was reported at 8.9% and 7.3%, which include benefits from circumstances such as Hurricane Helene and port strikes, surpassing the consensus predictions of 6.2% and 5.9%. The company's traffic growth was robust, increasing by 7.2% globally and 7.6% in the U.S. This suggests that Costco's value proposition is effectively attracting customers, promoting frequent shopping visits, and gaining market share.

此外，綜合報道，$好市多 (COST.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
好市多在9月份的全美和全球核心可比銷售增長了9%，展示了公司吸引會員的能力，其獨特價值、多樣的產品選擇和跨多渠道方便性。即使考慮到由於颶風海倫和港口罷工而導致的美國銷售增長約200個點子，仍然超過7%的核心增長繼續明顯領先於更廣泛的美國零售銷售數據。
好市多9月份調整後的美國可比銷售增長率顯示爲9.3%，部分歸因於非正常消費行爲導致的約2個百分點增長，其中包括港口罷工和颶風海倫。這些數字與店鋪評估期間的積極觀察相符。值得注意的是，非食品類別持續表現良好，尤其是珠寶和禮品卡，增幅在低兩位數範圍內。預計好市多強勁的頂線增長將在全年持續，得益於其出色的商品陳列能力和獨特的價值主張。此外，有人認爲好市多可能會在會員卡驗證點進行更嚴格的檢查，導致會員數短期增加。
好市多9月份的總體和美國核心可比銷售增長率分別爲8.9%和7.3%，其中包括來自颶風海倫和港口罷工等情況的利益，超過了6.2%和5.9%的共識預測。公司的客流量增長強勁，全球增長率爲7.2%，美國爲7.6%。這表明好市多的價值主張有效吸引顧客，促進頻繁購物，並獲得市場份額。
