COST — the share-gain story
COST
Delayed
The thesis
Traffic data is inflecting ahead of the comp the Street modeled.
Share gains are quietly compounding while the category shrinks.
What I'm watching
- COST same-store sales vs comp
- traffic vs ticket mix
- A clean move through the level I flag below
Positioning
Neutral / hedged on COST, 2-6 months horizon. Conviction: High. A weaker consumer would cap the upside; I trade the data, not hope.
