Tabitha (pronounced /ËtÃ¦bÉ¨Î¸É/) is an English language feminine given name, derived from an Aramaic word that means gazelle. The name was most popular in the United States in the 1970s and 1980s, when it was ranked among the 200 most popular names for girls.
Costco (COST) earnings topped Wall Street estimates for the first time in five quarters Wednesday, but Costco stock has already discounted the good news â and then some. Costco earnings came in strong despite the drop in gas prices, thanks to robust back-to-school sales and an increase in membership fees.
Costco has grown tremendously since its beginnings as a single store opened in Seattle in 1983, in large part due to the efforts and expertise of CEO Jim Sinegal, who was tapped to help found the enterprise because of his experience with a similar venture, the Price Club chain of high-volume warehouse stores.
