Everyone has a favorite food. Most people wouldn't count the super healthy items among their favorites. It's likely to be something from a fast food place or even a street vendor if you're somewhere like New York. If you are interested in stock trading and aren't sure where to start, think about investing in something you support— the food you love.
Fast Food Stocks
Have you noticed that some of your favorite fast food stores open new restaurants on every corner at a very fast pace? There are some areas where you can't drive a mile without seeing the same chain. That's good if you like their food and even better if you trade their stocks. Fast food companies had some of the best-performing stocks in 2019 and that's not something that's likely to change anytime soon.
Delivery Services
Getting the food you want at a quick pace is pretty easy today. You just hop into the drive-thru and wait your turn. But what about those days when you don't want to leave the office or your home? There are tons of food delivery services that are booming today. People can get any food they want without spending time in the drive-thru. Investing in companies that deliver food might be a smart way to start your stock trading.
Grocery Stores
There are billions of people in this world and all of them to eat. No one eats out all of the time. That's where grocery stores come into play. There are large chain stores that have taken over almost every town, large and small. Investing in successful grocery stores can help you feel like you are supporting your own stocks every time you shop.
Specialized Foods
Have a sweet tooth? Invest in a chocolate company. Can't start your day without your morning coffee? Pick a brand and check out the stocks there. Specialty foods like these are often the favorites and trading their stocks can help you get the returns you want. With fewer product offerings, their values can often be easier to predict and track throughout the market.
Street Vendors
If you love unique food from street vendors, you aren't alone. There's even an app that shows you locations of vendors you love on the city streets of NY so you can find just what you want, just when you want it. Trading for these companies shows your interest in unique foods and can also be a way for some of these starter businesses to get their feet off the ground.
Trading stocks should be something you enjoy and if you also enjoy certain foods, there's no reason not to combine the two. You'll have a lot more fun with the market if you watch stocks and companies you care about because of your own tastes. It's a great way to dip your toe into the stock market, figure out how things work, and support the companies and food you love to eat regularly.
