Costco annual revenue

As Costco's revenue has grown, Catholic exorcists have multiplied, a correlation of 0.982 that connects bulk shopping to spiritual warfare with the wholesale confidence of a chart that has found demons and discount toilet paper in the same economy. The membership is renewed, the rite is performed, and both numbers climb because the same growing nation funds both wholesale commerce and supernatural intervention. One imagines an exorcist buying holy water in bulk. Costco would stock it.

Costco revenue grew from about 97 billion to over 242 billion between 2011 and 2023. Exorcists grew from about 25 to over 175. Both are upward curves driven by different forces: Costco by membership growth and bulk economics, exorcists by Vatican institutional expansion. Seven data points, two growing trends.

Seven years of Costco and exorcists is the most retail-adjacent entry in the exorcist series: both serve growing markets, both operate through membership-like structures (parish for the exorcist, warehouse for Costco), and both are expanding because demand expands. The holy water is not available in bulk. Yet.
