$SPY $PPC $CPB $GIS $HRL Latest retail data from Wolf Street. A huge amount of spending is going to eating out. I see this changing in 2027. One reason I’m beginning to accumulate the food producers. I see more people being forced to eat at home more often. While a large percentage of PPC sales comes from Chick-fil-A, I don’t see their sales slowing down. CPB, GIS, CAG and HRL have a smaller percentage of sales coming from restaurants. INGR supplies the food producers. Their ingredients are in everything. ADM and Cargill are the other main suppliers to the food producers. When The Big Ugly hits, people won’t be spending like these charts show. They will be home, if they still have one. My target weights for this sector in the coming weeks. CAG 2.5% currently .77% GIS 2.5% currently .93% CPB 1.5% HRL 1.5% PPC 1% INGR 1% https://wolfstreet.com/2026/04/21/as-gasoline-prices-spiked-did-americans-scrimp-at-other-retailers-to-buy-gas-nope-not-americans-born-to-splurge/

$PPC $CPB $INGR $GIS $HRL I won’t be able to call the exact bottom with these 5 tickers, but I do believe we’re about to enter a solid accumulation period. I still plan on accumulating these 5 tickers for the next 6 months. Starter positions should be initiated soon. I’m already holding CAG. More to follow in the coming weeks. 👍

$PPC $CPB $INGR $GIS $HRL I’ve spent several hours this weekend doing a deeper dive into the food producers sector. While I opened a small position in CAG a few weeks ago, I thought it would be prudent to study the sector more. I ran debt to income ratios and forward PE ratios to determine my order. While some are more growth driven, I’m looking for more conservative, value & stable dividends. PPC supplies chicken to Chick-fil-A No dividend, but has solid growth potential. They do special payouts. $8.40 in 2025. Debt Coverage: The company's debt is well-supported, with an interest coverage ratio of 16.4x, meaning its earnings are more than 16 times greater than its interest payments CPB forward PE is around 9 and dividend 7.43% INGR- low DTI - 80% of food products contain their ingredients GIS - forward PE 10-13 and Divy at 6.87% and has paid a dividend for 127 years. HRL- forward PE 14 and Divy at 5.5% Do some research and see what might fit your portfolio. 👍

$SPY $CAG $HRL $PPC $KHC Food producers' stocks are experiencing a significant sell-off in early 2026 as the industry faces a "perfect storm" of weakening demand, margin pressure, and structural shifts. Investors are rotating away from the sector as bellwethers like General Mills and Kraft Heinz lower their growth outlooks for the year. Remember I’ve stated for while that margin compression would come. It’s going to get worse. Minerals/Materials/Energy costs are going to decimate the bottom lines of most companies. Market has already been pricing in the weakness to come. Most food producer charts look like HRL. It’s brutal. As a contrarian, I’m watching this sector closely. I love to accumulate out of favor tickers or sectors and wait patiently for years until they’re loved again. The only position I’ve opened is CAG. A very small position.

$PPC doubling down on prepared foods — and it’s paying off. 🔥 The Just Bare brand just surpassed $1 billion in sales and is gaining share in fully cooked chicken. That’s real traction as they accelerate this strategy. See why this shift could reshape the growth story 👉 https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2872778/pilgrims-pride-strengthens-prepared-foods-strategy-with-just-bare?cid=sm-stocktwits-2-2872778-teaser-34393&ADID=SYND_STOCKTWITS_TWEET_2_2872778_TEASER_34393

Is $PPC's Just Bare brand the key to improving its future prospects? 🧐 With Just Bare projected to hit $1B in sales by 2025 and leading the fully cooked chicken category, Pilgrim's Pride is doubling down on its prepared foods strategy to reduce commodity exposure and boost margins. Discover if PPC's strategic pivot makes it a hidden value play 👉 https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2872778/pilgrims-pride-strengthens-prepared-foods-strategy-with-just-bare?cid=sm-stocktwits-2-2872778-body-34378&ADID=SYND_STOCKTWITS_TWEET_2_2872778_BODY_34378

$PPC just delivered a mixed bag — and the market won’t ignore it. Fourth-quarter earnings missed estimates and fell year over year, even as sales climbed 3.3% on strength in Europe and Prepared Foods. Revenue growth is there… but profitability is slipping. Is this a temporary margin hit or something bigger brewing? Full breakdown of the quarter 👉 https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2862039/pilgrims-pride-q4-earnings-lag-estimates-sales-up-33-yy?cid=sm-stocktwits-2-2862039-teaser-33241&ADID=SYND_STOCKTWITS_TWEET_2_2862039_TEASER_33241

Earnings miss for $PPC — what's driving the decline? 📉 Adjusted EPS fell to 64 cents, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 78 cents, with net sales also missing forecasts despite a 3.3% increase in net sales from the year-ago quarter. U.S. operations saw a slight sales decline from the year-ago quarter, while Europe and Mexico showed growth amid soft commodity pricing and import pressures. Full earnings breakdown here 👉 https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2862039/pilgrims-pride-q4-earnings-lag-estimates-sales-up-33-yy?cid=sm-stocktwits-2-2862039-body-33235&ADID=SYND_STOCKTWITS_TWEET_2_2862039_BODY_33235
