Better Buy: Costco vs. Starbucks

Better Buy: Costco vs. Starbucks

Costco Wholesale (NASDAQ: COST) and Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) have both been great stocks to own over the past few years. For the month of March, adjusted comparable sales (excluding the impacts from changes in gasoline prices and foreign exchange) rose 11.1%, with e-commerce revenue increasing at an impressive 54.5%. Although these March figures showed a slight deceleration from January and February, they clearly demonstrate the strength of Costco's business.
