Academic risk and quality models computed from COST's own filings and price history, not from analyst opinion.
Strong on 7 of 9 fundamental-health tests covering profitability, leverage and operating efficiency.
Altman Z above the 2.99 safe threshold, so the model puts bankruptcy risk in its lowest band.
Beneish M below the -1.78 flag threshold, so the earnings-manipulation model finds nothing unusual in the accruals and margin trends.
Share of earnings coming from accruals rather than cash. Higher values historically precede weaker future returns.
GARCH(1,1) 30-day annualised forecast, above the current 19.0% reading.
Fama-French 5-factor market beta. The five factors explain 16% of this stock's return variance; the rest is idiosyncratic.
The stock’s own historical valuation anchor, which is a fairer comparison than a sector average for a company with a persistent premium or discount.
