Costco Wholesale investors are wondering if a special dividend will be announced this December, as the company has not made such payments in consecutive years. While Costco has a history of issuing special dividends, especially following strong performance years, analysts remain cautious this time due to less impressive growth and challenging economic conditions. Last year, Costco paid a $15 special dividend, but given the modest yield of its regular dividends, the company may prefer to maintain flexibility and avoid creating expectations for frequent special payments.
