Walmart also caught the eye of Todd Gordon, longtime trader and founder of TradingAnalysis.com, who flagged the stock's "beautiful" uptrend in the same "Trading Nation" interview.

"One stock that I do like is Costco. I continue to hold it in my portfolio simply because it's working," he said, pointing to the stock's neat uptrend since the end of last year.

"Plus, I think Costco trades more as a discretionary rather than a consumer staple just because of the growth rate."
