Better Buy: Costco vs. Home Depot

Better Buy: Costco vs. Home Depot

Legendary investor Warren Buffett's core philosophy is that he always seeks businesses with some kind of economic moat (attributes that allow them to defend themselves against the competition). It's hard to argue that Costco doesn't have one of the strongest moats around. In fact, Buffett's right-hand man, Charlie Munger, is a huge fan of the company.
