FAQ

What investor type does Costco fit best in FoxScore?
Costco fits a more opportunity-seeking investor type in FoxScore: performance is the strongest sub-score. That suggests above-average historical returns — but check stability to ensure the performance wasn’t “paid for” with high volatility or deep drawdowns.
How meaningful is the available history for Costco?
Costco currently has about 15 years of price history available. That covers multiple market cycles including crisis phases, making long-term interpretation of returns, drawdowns and trend shifts more reliable.
What is FoxScore good for — and what is it not for?
FoxScore is an analysis and comparison tool: it helps you sort assets quickly, compare profiles and spot strengths/weaknesses. It’s not a substitute for your own research or fundamental analysis, and it’s not a buy/sell recommendation.
