Costco (COST) shares were up after the retailer posted better than expected earnings in the third quarter, a sign that the nation’s largest club chain is flexing its scale and devoted following to navigate tariffs and economic turbulence. Costco is the latest big-box retailer to post quarterly results, as investors and analysts search for clues on how shoppers are spending. Many consumer-facing companies have posted soft results in recent weeks with Target Corp., Procter & Gamble Co. and Kraft Heinz Co. slashing their annual outlooks. Walmart Inc. and a handful of names have been outliers with strong results. Sweeping, on-again, off-again US tariffs have upended operations across industries, fueling chaos among companies, investors and consumers. Courts are weighing in on whether these tariffs can stay in effect. Gap (GAP) shares dropped nearly 21% during trading on Friday after the apparel retailer predicted a tariff impact of as much as $300 million, offsetting better-than-expected results at its biggest brands. On Thursday, Gap said tariffs could result in a $250 million to $300 million hit if they remain at current levels of 30% for most goods from China and 10% for other countries. The retailer said it has strategies to mitigate more than half of that cost. Gap reiterated its full-year guidance for sales and operating income, but added the outlook doesn’t include the potential impact of any duties.
