Shares of Costco Wholesale Corp (COST) continue to weaken within the SIA S&P 100 Index Report, currently sitting in the red unfavored zone at spot #80, despite a relatively low 6.35% standard deviation. Performance has deteriorated further with COST down 5.61% year-to-date and 12.35% over the past six months, while relative strength has also broken down versus cash, contributing to a SMAX score of 0 out of 10. From a technical perspective, the stock has failed at all-time highs and has since slipped back into the unfavored zone, with key support levels now identified well below current prices.

Recent technical action in the SIA Electronics and Semiconductor Equal Weight Index suggests the sector remains vulnerable, with mixed point-and-figure signals and meaningful downside risk should key support levels fail.
