AG1 Expands Into Retail With Costco Wholesale (NasdaqGS:COST) Nationwide Partnership
Costco Wholesale recently announced a noteworthy retail partnership with AG1, marking a significant channel expansion into brick-and-mortar stores. This development, alongside the company's strong financial performance, aligns with the broader 1.7% market rise over the past month. Despite a market climbing 11% over the year, Costco's 4.59% increase is likely bolstered by its revenue growth and innovative product launches, such as the DripDrop® Hydration variety pack. These factors collectively contribute positively to the company's momentum and complement the general upward market trend, illustrating a robust overall positioning. Every company has risks, and we've spotted 1 weakness for Costco Wholesale you should know about. The best AI stocks today may lie beyond giants like Nvidia and Microsoft. Find the next big opportunity with these 26 smaller AI-focused companies with strong growth potential through early-stage innovation in machine learning, automation, and data intelligence that could fund your retirement. The recent retail partnership between Costco and AG1 represents a meaningful channel expansion, potentially enhancing revenue and earnings forecasts. This move into brick-and-mortar stores could elevate sales volumes and support e-commerce initiatives, while further boosting Costco's diversification efforts across its international markets. Over the past five years, Costco's total shareholder return of 262.00% underscores its consistent performance and growth strategies, contrasting the more modest 4.59% increase over the last year compared to a rising market. This longer-term return showcases an impressive trajectory, highlighting Costco's ability to generate significant returns to investors. With the price target set at US$1052.04, slightly above the current share price of US$1010.50, analysts view Costco as being relatively fairly priced, aligning closely with projected earnings growth and market expectations. The slight discount to the price target suggests the potential for alignment between corporate growth initiatives and market sentiment. Relative to the consumer retailing industry, Costco's 1-year return of 4.59% reflects a performance under the market's 11.5% gain; however, its 5-year performance highlights a formidable ability to achieve sustained growth. This context helps investors consider both short-term dynamics and longer-term growth opportunities.

Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max: The Best View Yet Of New Design Just Leaked
Updated May 31 with more analysis of the iPhone 17 Pro Max design in further leaks. When Apple releases its next iPhones this fall, it'll be clear whether reports of a thicker-than-ever iPhone Pro Max are true. How thick is too thick? A new video showing a dummy may give us clues and now the same source has provided us with a further picture of an iPhone 17 Pro dummy for comparison. More on that in a moment. It comes from prolific leaker Majin Bu, with the caption 'iPhone 17 Pro is beautiful,' followed by a 33-second video. To be clear, this is not the real thing, though it's a well-built mock-up. Assuming it's following the well-leaked details and dimensions (and assuming they are accurate in the first place), what does it tell us? This mock-up shows the rear camera panel in a shade that matches the rear of the iPhone, unlike most earlier leaks which showed the camera panel in black. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported in April that this wouldn't be the case. Here it looks like the camera panel, which stretches across the width of the phone, is made of glass, with the iPhone's color showing through. So, how thick is it? There have been several reports that the iPhone 17 Pro Max will be thicker than ever, potentially to provide a great benefit: increased battery life. In a separate post on X, Majin Bu has published an image showing and iPhone 16 Pro alongside a dummy of the iPhone 17 Pro, to show how the camera modules will change. It's hard to tell but it looks like the iPhone 16 Pro may have slightly larger lenses, though this could be down to the 16 Pro simply being nearer the camera. The most striking differences remain the full-width camera panel and the repositioning of the flash, LiDAR scanner and microphone. In the latest video, the dummy phone is shown from more or less every angle, including side-on. The iPhone 16 Pro Max measures 8.25mm from front to back, while reports have suggested this fall's replacement will be 8.725mm thick. That's a difference of 0.475mm, which isn't exactly gargantuan. As a result, it doesn't look much thicker, if at all, in the video. This may calm those who worry a thicker phone, especially of this screen size, could be too much in the hand. Of course, Apple will have thought of this and curved the edges, for instance, to mitigate this. Though since many people put this expensive piece of technology in a case, there's the thickness of the case to be factored in here, too. The dummy shows other elements just as you'd expect to see them, such as the volume rocker and Action button on the left edge, side button and Camera Control on the right. By the way, it looks like this dummy is a non-U.S. iPhone, as the SIM tray is there, where the mmWave antenna lozenge sits in American iPhones. Of course, if the dummy reflects accurately what the iPhone 17 Pro Max will look like, that SIM tray is likely to be the only cosmetic difference.

All four iPhone 17 models just tipped for ‘metalens' upgrade
The Pro Max version of Apple's beloved iPhone tends to be first in line for significant redesigns and upgrades, but Apple's rumored metalens technology, which promises to significantly shrink the size of the Dynamic Island, could come to all four iPhone 17 models. That's according to GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu, who made the prediction in a research note first spotted by 9to5Mac this week. Previously, Pu said only the iPhone 17 Pro Max would get this design change, but now he's changed his tune and claims all four iPhones will incorporate metalens technology. For the uninitiated, metalens are flat lenses that use metasurfaces to focus light toward the image sensor. It's a serious upgrade from the kind of curved lenses used in most phones. Rumor has it Apple will use a metalens for Face ID that integrates the transmitter and receiver components to reduce the overall size and thickness. That lines Apple up to shrink the Dynamic Island by extension, an upgrade iPhone owners have been calling for since the introduction of Apple's selfie camera spot. Though its dimensions on the iPhone 17 and what kind of size difference we can expect remain up in the air. The Dynamic Island, which houses Face ID sensors and the front camera in addition to showcasing Live Activities, was initially introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro and has remained roughly the same size since. Eventually, Apple's rumored to bring Face ID beneath the display entirely, but that's not expected until at least the iPhone 18. Keep in mind that this all remains the subject of speculation for now. Another Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claimed back in January that the Dynamic Island's size will remain "largely unchanged" with Apple's upcoming iPhone line. Both leakers have proven track records of sharing accurate details about Apple's product line-up, so we'll have to wait and see which predictions pan out. We won't know for sure until Apple's official launch event, which is expected to go down in September if history serves. In the meantime, be sure to check out all the latest news and rumors in our iPhone 17 hub. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips.
