- F-15E took out Shahed-129 UAV (combat/recon)
- UAV was flying over US-led coalition territory

A U.S. aircraft shot down an armed Iranian drone advancing on coalition forces in southern Syria on Tuesday, Fox News confirmed.

The armed pro-regime Shaheed-129 UAV was shot down by a U.S. F-15E Strike Eagle about 12:30 a.m. after it displayed hostile intent and advanced on Coalition forces. This is the second the U.S. shot down an Iranian drone in less than a month.

The coalition forces were manning an established combat outpost to the northeast of At Tanf where they are training and advising partner ground forces in the fight against ISIS. This is the same location where another pro-regime UAV dropped munitions near Coalition forces before it was shot down on June 8.

Republican Ralph Norman has won South Carolina’s special House election to replace Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney in Congress.

Norman defeated Democrat Archie Parnell in a closer than expected race for South Carolina’s 5th Distrct on Tuesday night. Norman had 52 percent of the vote to Parnell’s 48 percent when the Associated Press called the race with 89 percent of precincts reporting.

Norman, a conservative hardliner in the state legislature who won a primary runoff against a more moderate opponent with the help of the Club for Growth, has said he would join the House Freedom Caucus if elected.

__***Costco Sees an Extremely Damaging Flush In Aftermath of Amazon's Big Whole Foods Deal***__

Costco (COST) suffered its worst breakdown since August 2015, on Friday. The retailer shed more than 7% as volume surged to nearly 10 times its 50-day average. This extremely damaging flush began with a huge downside gap leaving behind an ominous top in place. For patient Costco investors, there is light at the end of the tunnel as shares begin to show signs of stabilization today.

Back in early February, Costco began a powerful new rally leg with the help of high volume breakout gap. This news inspired ramp lifted the stock over 2.4%, ending a 10-week consolidation in the process. After a big move throughout February, Costco filled the Feb. 2 breakout gap in mid March. A fresh rally leg followed that drove the stock to new highs. Following two huge distribution days Costco has returned to this major support zone.

In the near term, investors should keep a close eye on the $164.00 to $162.00 area. This major support zone includes the December high, the Feb. 2 breakout gap and the 200-day moving average. If the stock can regain its footing here, despite the massive amount of recent damage, a very low-risk entry opportunity will develop. On the downside, a close back below $161.80 would violate the February low, indicating more downside is likely.

Costco's shares fell 0.9% to $162.89 by Tuesday's close.
