Food & Beverage: Pantry to Counter

Own the businesses competing for everyday food spending across packaged products, grocery baskets and prepared meals. Unlike a broad consumer-brand basket, this portfolio focuses on food distribution and consumption, excluding apparel and household products. The current uneven market favors examining recurring demand rather than relying on an AI spending rebound, although ingredient costs and price-sensitive customers remain risks. Launch basket (equal weight): PEP, KO, WMT, COST, MCD, GIS, KHC, CAG, SBUX Rules: 1. No inverse, leveraged or volatility ETFs. 2. Only names tradable at the enrolled brokers (Moomoo): no OTC listings, no dead tickers, nothing on the refused list.
