Keith Fitz-Gerald talks about three stocks: Costco, Palantir, and Lockheed Martin. He shares his thoughts before the market opens.
Costco is selling a big Le Creuset cookware set for $4,999.99. This set has 170 pieces. Le Creuset is a popular French cookware brand.
The set has many cooking tools. It has pots, pans, and other kitchen items. According to Costco, this set has everything you need to cook like a professional chef.
Most of the pieces are in a blue color called “Marseille.” This color is one of Le Creuset’s favorites.
Costco does not sell this set in its stores. You can only buy it online. Also, if you are not a Costco member, there is a 5% extra fee for online purchases.
In the last year, online shopping made up 7% of Costco’s total sales.
