Better Buy: Costco vs. Kimberly-Clark

Costco (NASDAQ: COST) and Kimberly-Clark (NYSE: KMB) are both considered COVID-resistant stocks. Costco, which rallied more than 22% over the past 12 months, was buoyed by panic buying throughout the pandemic. Kimberly-Clark saw demand for its paper-based products -- including tissues, toilet paper, paper towels, and diapers -- surge throughout the crisis. As a result, its stock advanced about 8.6% in the past year against the S&P 500's 5.5% gain.

Costco has clearly been the stronger investment, but will it continue to outpace Kimberly-Clark and the broader market? Let's dig deeper to decide.
