Not All Food Stocks Are Created Equal

XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF

tdp2664 InvestorPlace How do you fight food inflation? The traditional answer for many investors is to own defensive stocks like food companies, whose products will always be in demand no matter the economic cycle. That strategy used to be pretty solid. The difficulty today is that these same companies face input costs that are rising faster than historical norms, in many instances forcing them to increase prices substantially. And not every company will successfully pass on these costs to their customers . As a result, investors need to reevaluate the traditional strategies used to fight food inflation. Let’s explore the potential ways investors can profit from the inevitable. It used to be that you couldn’t go wrong owning a cereal manufacturer like Kellogg (NYSE: K ) or General Mills (NYSE: GIS ). It’s not quite that simple these days. General Mills announced first-quarter results Sept. 21 that were anything but special. While sales grew 9% in the quarter, operating profit dropped by 3% year-over-year, thanks to significantly higher input costs — this after General Mills raised prices 7% in its largest segment, U.S. retail. As expected, higher prices resulted in lower volume. Now, think back to 2008 when the recession hit. Many consumers switched to private-label grocery-store brands. Should cereal manufacturers continue to hike prices, watch for a return to private-label brands. The chief beneficiary would be Ralcorp Holdings (NYSE: RAH ), one of the largest producers of private-label food in the country. Ralcorp also happens to own Post Holdings, the maker of Post-branded cereals that will be spun off later this year. But forget cereal for a moment. Let’s think about other food- and beverage-related companies. Since J.M. Smucker (NYSE: SJM ) bought Folgers from Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG ) in 2008, it’s become just as well-known for its coffee as its jellies and jams. How is it handling rising food prices? Immediately, it seems not so well. Smucker’s second-quarter net income fell 15% large part because of a 30% increase in commodity costs. To counter these increases, SJM too has raised prices, in some cases as high as 30%. Most of Smucker’s necessary price hikes already have been implemented, and it appears by the time they’re fully imposed by next April, commodity costs likely will have eased. Still, Smucker’s price hikes resulted in an 18% increase in quarterly revenue, offset by a volume decrease of 1%. So in the long term, Smucker appears to be doing a reasonable job dealing with rising costs. Since acquiring Folgers, its stock has been on a tear, up 50% — better than any of the companies mentioned above. Who knew it was coffee — not cereal — we couldn’t live without? By now, most investors are aware that Kraft (NYSE: KFT ) is splitting in two. Kraft feels shareholders will benefit from separating its U.S. grocery business from its international snack business, which includes Cadbury. In September, I chronicled the reasons KFT shareholders shouldn’t wait for the post-spinoff benefits to kick in. Since then, Kraft has reported strong earnings despite $1.7 billion in commodity cost increases year-to-date. Kraft’s customers aren’t balking at price increases that will continue through the first half of 2012. New products and more effective advertising are two reasons Kraft has been able to keep upping the ante. Of all the big food companies, Kraft is doing the best job dealing with volatile prices. Possible Alternatives Of course, you can find other ways besides traditional food businesses to take advantage of the food production pipeline. For instance, take a look at wheat. While gluten-free products are popping up in grocery stores — which is good for companies like Smart Balance (NASDAQ: SMBL ) — most diets still include wheat. As the global demand for wheat — and other agricultural foods — becomes increasingly greater, fertilizers are increasingly necessary to help speed the growing process. Two companies that stand to benefit from increasing crop demand are agricultural biotech company Monsanto (NYSE: MON ) and fertilizer specialist CF Industries (NYSE: CF ). Of the two, CF Industries is more likely to benefit from the growing global requirement for food. Of course, before wheat comes out of the field, it has to be harvested. That’s where John Deere & Co. (NYSE: DE ) comes into play. The maker of the iconic green-and-yellow farm machines also is facing higher input costs, but it’s having no problem increasing revenue.

5 High-Yield Dividend Investments for Hungry Income Investors

XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF

tdp2664 InvestorPlace Income-oriented investors are a voracious lot, and what they're constantly on the hunt for is a great big plate of high-yield dividend investments. But to get the supersized serving of nourishment necessary to sate these high-yield appetites, it's not enough to just forage around the supermarket of ordinary stocks. To get yields fit for hungry income investors, you need to check out a variety of specialized dividend dishes. I'm referring here to the more exotic dividend vehicles that often pay double-digit yields. Securities such as Master Limited Partnerships, or MLPs, Real Estate Investment Trusts, or REITs, closed-end funds, energy trusts and shipping/tanker companies are all designed with yield-seekers in mind. Master Limited Partnership: CVR Partners The most basic definition of an MLP is that it's a publicly traded limited partnership. The beauty of an MLP is that, unlike a regular corporation, it is considered to be the aggregate of its partners rather than a separate entity, and that structure allows for what's called pass-through income. In my view, one of the best MLPs out there is CVR Partners, LP (NYSE: UAN ). The company produces nitrogen fertilizers, including ammonia and urea ammonium nitrate. CVR Partners' nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing facility is the only operation in North America that uses the extremely efficient petroleum coke gasification process to produce nitrogen fertilizer. This makes it the lowest-cost producer of nitrogen fertilizer in the U.S. — and arguably the world. CVR has a dividend yield of 10.42% as of Nov. 21, which is plenty of yield to enrich the soil on any income portfolio. Real Estate Investment Trust: Annaly Capital Management REITs trade just like regular stocks, but the advantage of REITs is they offer a way for investors to participate in the real estate market without actually buying property. The bigger advantage for yield hogs is that REITs offer big yields along with the potential for some robust upside. Different REITs specialize in different areas. Some buy commercial properties like shopping malls and office buildings and some are more geared toward residential markets. One proven REIT winner is Annaly Capital Management, Inc. (NYSE: NLY ). The company invests primarily in mortgage pass-through certificates, collateralized mortgage obligations, agency callable debentures and other mortgage-backed securities. Like most REITs, it distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. That income translates into a 15.03% dividend yield, making it a stellar choice for income investors.
