| Epicurus Institute Analysis |
| Everyone eats, every day and Del Monte produces many of the fundamental foods we consume routinely such as apple sauce, broths and tunafish - inexpensive items that survive even the worst economic times. Additionally, they produce pet products and foods that are well respected by pet owners and have become trusted names in pet foods. Operating since 1916, Del Monte has survived and thrived through economic depressions, recessions, and two world wars. We believe they'll prosper through present economic conditions so we recommend a buy and hold on this stock. |
