The consumer goods sector is also in the headlines of the economic press day in and day out. With this very original perspective we are going to propose a series of values that are linked to the sector of consumer goods. It is one of the most neglected segments by small and medium investors. For example, they can be sectors where rice, wines or oils are included. And that you can make them profitable through certain values of the variable income of our country.
For starters, these are generally stocks that are characterized by their small capitalization in the equity markets. That is, with very low liquid titles where it is very complex to correctly adjust entry and exit prices. To the point that it is quite normal to get hooked on their positions and this is one of the reasons why their trading volume is not very high in most of the sessions on the stock market. In addition, they are preferred by speculators to make profits in very short periods of time.
While on the other hand, it should be noted that the original sectors to invest, such as rice, wine or oil, are an option that you have in the equity markets. Where almost none of them is integrated into the selective index of the Spanish stock market, the Ibex 35. If not, on the contrary, they are very data to be in the secondary indices with everything that this fact indicates. That is, maintaining very defined constants for the configuration of their prices and that make them somewhat atypical values from all points of view.
Original sectors to invest in: oils
Within this segment of the stock market, oil has been one of the classics of national equities, although it has fallen into decline in recent years. One of its representatives is deoleo one of the most volatile values on the stock market and that can reach divergences in its prices and on the same day of up to 10% or even with more violent percentages. They are very prone to carry out trading operations due to these characteristics but for this there is no doubt that you have to know how to operate with them. Because they generate a very high risk that can lead you to lose a lot of money in each of the operations carried out by small and medium investors.
It should also be noted that Deoleo is in a very complex business phase and that has led it to trade at historic lows. With a price in the financial markets below one euro unit and which is currently very close to one tenth of a euro. Therefore, it is very clear that it is not intended to create a stable savings bank for the medium and long term. Not surprisingly, you have much more to lose than to win and this is a powerful reason not to enter their positions from this moment on, since surprises can be very frequent as has happened in recent years.
Wine is listed on the stock market
This sector, on the contrary, is already something else because little by little and without hardly attracting attention they can become very profitable for small and medium investors. It is true that they are not values considered as liquid either, but they maintain a tone in the price that can be very interesting for the interests of small and medium investors. To the point that they usually generate annual returns of around 3% or 4%. Through listed companies such as Bodegas Riojanas or especially Baron of Law. They are reserved for a retailer profile that seeks quality in the proposals in the equity markets over other more aggressive variables.
Well, this class of very special securities tend to perform well in the most adverse scenarios in the equity markets. Although in reality its volume of contracts is not very high with very few exchanges in the titles in all the trading sessions. Like the previous one, there are not many companies of these characteristics in the continuous market and of course none of them are listed on the Ibex 35. Not surprisingly, they are very small capitalization companies that generally do not distribute dividends. among its shareholders. As one of its main hallmarks if in the end you are going to opt for this investment so original for a large part of investors.
Invest in rice
Another of the most original options is investing in rice and it is not a majority choice among small and medium investors. In this case through a larger capitalization company such as ebro and that a few years ago it was even listed on the selective index of national equities, the Ibex 35. As one of the most followed and contracted securities by retailers and with a high volume of contracts, even above some of the most followed proposals. At the moment its interest has decreased but it maintains fairly tight profitability ratios.
While on the other hand, it is worth mentioning that Ebro can act as a safe haven in the most unfavorable scenarios for the interests of investors. Not surprisingly, the food sector belongs to a segment that does not stand out for the high divergence between the maximum and minimum prices in the same trading session. In addition, another of its great incentives is that it distributes dividends among shareholders, with a charge in account that rolls 3%. That is, not very high but it can be worth it in the most conservative or defensive profiles. In any case, it is a value to have on the radar for future operations on the stock market.
Advantages of these values
If you want to take positions in some of the stocks that we have mentioned, you will have no choice but to analyze their advantages and disadvantages. Regarding the first, it should be mentioned that it is about anti cyclical values and this means that they can perform better than the rest than in bearish scenarios for equity markets. By acting as a refuge in these situations and being the center of operations for a large part of the small and medium investors. Although with a not very high capitalization in all cases and that can prevent you from adjusting the prices of purchases and sales.
Another of its most relevant benefits is that they are values that do not offer large fluctuations in the configuration of your prices. This is very important for the more defensive profiles who want, above all, the preservation of their savings over other technical considerations. It is also influenced by the fact that they belong to sectors with well-established lines of business in the national economy, such as wine or oil. In other words, their products will always be demanded by consumers and it is difficult for there to be a crisis in this kind of consumption.
Assess its disadvantages
While on the contrary, it is necessary to analyze that as a negative fact these values are not very conducive to carrying out operations in the short or medium term. Because its volatility is not exactly one of their common denominators more important. In addition, in your offer you do not have many proposals to choose from at the moment. Just a series of investment models that meet user demands. The lack of dividends is usually another of its drawbacks to open positions from now on. Since in most cases they are companies that do not offer benefits.
In any case, it will be you yourself who has to assess now whether or not it is worth choosing these values given the offer offered by the national continuous market. Although it can be an excellent decision if you conform as a complementary investment and never as the main or predominant. This may be the best of the keys for operations to be more profitable at any time and situation. And do not forget that it is what it is all about after all.
Finally, it should be noted that it is not advisable to carry out large operations in this class of securities which are so special in the equity markets. If not, on the contrary, it must be formalized under very small movements that cannot affect your income statement. Not surprisingly, we must bear in mind that these are not values such as the blue chips that are integrated in the Ibex 35. With completely different behaviors and that are obvious to all small and medium investors. To the point that they need a different treatment and as a consequence, the strategy to use will be another one that you will carry out from now on.
