Price sits only 2.80% above the 200-SMA at 967.49, with the rising 50-SMA at 935.58 marking a deeper trend floor. The MACD spread of ~7.3 points above signal reflects persistent upside momentum, but RSI at 73.38 signals the move is extended and vulnerable to mean reversion back toward moving-average support. Covered structure favors patience: either a controlled pullback into the 967-980 shelf, or a decisive breakout confirmation above the current 994-1000 zone, would offer a cleaner read than the current stretched tape.

COST is trading at 994.61, extended above both the 50-SMA (935.58) and 200-SMA (967.49), with momentum stretched as RSI prints 73.38. The setup is at an inflection because price is in overbought territory while MACD (18.33 vs signal 10.99) still confirms trend, creating a watch-and-react scenario rather than a chase.
EntryPreferred pullback entry 975-985 (near the 200-SMA at 967.49); alternative breakout trigger on a sustained close above 1000 with MACD still above signal.
Targets1025 — measured continuation if breakout holds above 1000 → 1055 — extension target if momentum (MACD) stays above signal and RSI resets without a trend break
StopInvalidation on a close below 935 (50-SMA at 935.58). Breaking this would signal the intermediate uptrend is failing and the extended RSI condition is resolving via trend break rather than consolidation.
