ABOUT THE FOOD & RESTAURANT INDUSTRY

As humans, we require food. That need to eat isn’t going anywhere, so food will always be in both high demand and high production. This makes their stock a stable and profitable one to own – either through commodities, restaurant stocks, packaged food stocks or grocery store stocks.

Here are three subsets of the food industry:

Farming

Farming includes all businesses involved in the production and collection of raw agricultural commodities. This includes things like corn, wheat, soybeans, rice etc.

Processing

Next those raw material foods must be processed into forms that may be more easily distributed and later sold to consumers.

Distributing

The next step is getting the finished or unfinished food products into the hands of hungry consumers. Grocers are the distributors for “unfinished” food products (customers will buy them and cook meals at home), while both fast food and upscale restaurants distribute finished products.

*** SPECIAL ALERT -- July 11, 2020 -- TWO of this Year's Motley Fool Stock Picks Have Already TRIPLED and ONE Has Already Doubled in just 6 Months! ****

We have been tracking ALL of the Motley Fool stock picks since January 2016. That's 4+ years, 54 months and 108 stock picks. As of Friday, July 10th, two of their twleve stocks picks from 2020 have already tripled (TSLA, SHOP) and another one has doubled (ZM)--all in just the first 6 months of 2020. In addition, 6 of their 2019, 8 of their 2018, 9 of their 2016 and 11 of their 2016 picks have also doubled. Best of all, over these 54 months, the average stock pick is up 128%. That beats the SP500 by an average of 104%. And that's even accounting for all of this COVID mess that has wreaked havoc on most stocks. BUT, the Fool has done so well because they have quickly identified stocks this year that will perform well in the post-COVID world. THAT is how the Fool consistently does so well--they adapt and constantly pick stocks before everyone else realizes the opportunities.
  • Shopify (SHOP) – April 2, 2020 pick and it is already up 198%
  • Zoom Video (ZM) – March 19, 2020 pick and it is already up 123%
  • DexCom (DXCM) picked Feb 20, 2020 right before the market crashed and it is still up 45%
  • Tesla (TSLA) picked January 2, 2020 before the crash and it is up 259% compared to the SP500 -1% so it is ahead of the market by 260%
  • HubSpot (HUBS) picked December 5, 2019 and it is up 52%
  • Netflix (NFLX) picked November 21, 2019 and it is up 76%
  • Trade Desk (TTD) picked November 11, 2019 and up 139%
  • Zoom Video originally picked Oct 3 and it is up 259%
  • SolarEdge (SEDG) picked September 19, 2019 and it is up 78%
Now, no one can guarantee that their next picks will be as strong, but our 4.5 years of experience has been super profitable. They also claim that since inception, their average pick is up 504% and now we believe them. Many analysts are saying that we have passed the bottom of this COVID crisis and "certain" stocks will recover quickly and be the new leaders. So make sure you have the right stocks in your portfolio.
