Opinions Jim Cramer - Mad Money
McCormick & CoMKCBUYOct 04, 2021
As the economy reopened, shares slid, but shares stabilized last month as the market became volatile. They reported last week some hot sales, but management cut their full-year earnings forecast because of supply chain issues and higher transportation and packaging costs. If these issues can be solved, then MKC would be a terrific buy.

Usually it thrives during a slowdown. Their June report slashed full-year guidance, as consumer goods struggle in Europe and Asia. Also, MKF raised prices and consumers didn't bite. Management still needs to get its house in order; they has slashed their full-year-forecast, forecasting $0.65 EPS vs. $0.83 by Wall Street. Full-year, the company projects 0 to -2% sales growth, down from before. Are still struggling from the supply chain.

COMMENT
MKC sells spices, so it's widely viewed as a lockdown stock. And yet, restaurants will fully reopen and restos make up 20% of their business. This is a hybrid stock, benefiting from the reopening but also lingering stay-at-home habits as people will continue to cook at home but also dine out.
Consumer Products
COMMENT
It reports Tuesday. It's controversial. A big spicemaker including a huge food-service business that supplies restaurants, but of course that got hit badly during the pandemic, though its consumer business thrived during lockdowns as people cooked more. However, when society reopens there will be less cooking.

COMMENT
They make spices. Their last quarter was a blow-out and the stock shot up...too high, and has since pulled back sharply. Now, the stock is only slightly above that last report. Will people still cook at home after the pandemic? Yes--people develop new habits and some will keep cooking because they like it. That said, analysts may fail to back this stock.

TOP PICK
They bought Reckitt Benckiser which propelled from the 10th-largest to the 2nd biggest condiment company in the world. It's recession-proof and has been rising slowly during this current downtrend. They do a lot of partnerships with restaurants. A low-volatile, sleeping name that meets a consistent demand: cooking. (Analysts’ price target is $153.22)
