4 Top Consumer Staples Stocks to Watch In August
The world has started to figure out how to live with the coronavirus until it eventually goes away, but it would be naive to pretend things are back to their pre-COVID normal. Many consumers are still self-quarantining at home as much as possible, and millions of people remain out of work. Consumer-facing companies are adapting as quickly as they can, which in some cases means playing offense rather than defense.
To that end, investors will want to keep an eye on four particular consumer staples names this month. Some have earnings announcements in the queue, while others are due to drop big news. All of it collectively reflects the sector's present pulse, as these names are all more or less in the same boat.
