Got $1,000? Here Is 1 Stock to Buy for the Long Term

The average mark-up at Costco is 11%, while it can be substantially higher at other major retailers. Because of its massive scale, with trailing 12-month revenue of $218 billion, Costco is able to flex its tremendous bargaining power with suppliers to get favorable pricing on merchandise.
