Thursday's Finalists: COST

The Washington-based global cut-rate retailer Costco Wholesale Corp. (COST) is the lone survivor of the early rounds of analysis. It appears on both my standard list and my supplement list of innovative companies. I'll be posting an analysis of COST as a potential bull play prior to the closing bell.

COST was one of three symbols in my analytical universe that have survived this far. The other two, also bull, signals have stumbled, however.

ULTA failed confirmation, and RTN, although confirming its signal, has an insufficiently bullish chart to justify a trade.

In addition to COST, a second symbol on my innovators list, DEO, made it past the early analysis but failed confirmation.
