Costco Down as Goldman Cuts Rating on Co....

Shares of Costco Wholesale Corp. (COST) is down 2.4% to $64.86 after Goldman Sachs cut its rating on the warehouse retailer to neutral from buy.

In a note to clients, Goldman Sachs analyst Adrianne Shapira wrote that "with current relative valuation well above historic averages and limited remaining catalysts on the horizon, we view current risk/reward less compelling."

The stock appeared to be breaking out yesterday, but this downgrade should cause it to pull back. It has key support at $62.50.
