5. Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST)

Number of Hedge Fund Holdings in Q1 2026: 107

Retailer Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST) is one of Jim Cramer’s favorite stocks and one that he has continued to support even though the shares have struggled. The stock is down by 6.6% over the past year and up by 7.2% year-to-date. July hasn’t been a great month for Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST)’s stock, as it closed 4.2% lower on the 9th. On that day, the firm released its June sales report. The figures saw Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST) post slower adjusted comparable sales over the previous months. Cramer commented on the report and mentioned an overall tight operating environment:

“People felt the month wasn’t that great. And Costco’s in a funk. At 44 times earnings I like it. I contrast the funk with what Walmart’s in. Which is again, it’s a very tough space right now.”

Bell Global Equities Fund discussed Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST) in its May 2026 investor update:

“In a similar vein, we also exited our position in Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST), where we felt the premium valuation – at approximately 45x forward earnings – meant the risk-reward profile on a forward-looking basis was no longer compelling, particularly at a time when many other high-quality companies have seen their valuations de-rate materially lower. We continue to believe Costco is a great business and have held the position in the portfolio for over 12 years, during which time the stock delivered a total shareholder return of approximately 1,000% ~21% CAR. Ultimately, competition for capital within the portfolio is as intense as ever following the underperformance of other high quality companies, and we will continue to monitor Costco closely for a reinvestment opportunity.”
