TOP PICK
In 2001, people spent $6.2 billion on pets and $15.5 billion in 2018, so this is a good growth industry. Zoetis has a livestock business, growing 4--5%; though restaurant closures have slowed growth lately, as people age, they eat more protein. Also the pet business is growing strongly. The average pet owner spends $3,000 on their pet. Another tailwind is that animal drugs have few generics. (Analysts’ price target is $181.18)

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 19/19, Up 26%) Livestock and pets. Consistent grower at 5%. As people get wealthier, they tend to buy more protein, so livestock goes up. R&D benefits humans, has easier approval, and has pricing power. Pets are a high growth industry. Great products in pipeline. Will continue to do well.

BUY
A lot more people have either bought or adopted pets. The cost of keeping an animal has gotten more expensive. You should buy on a pull back. It is a great demographic story.

TOP PICK
An animal health care company that works with pets and livestock. There is over $15 billion in pet spending in the US today. There is not the same price pressure in pet health from insurance companies like in pharma. Getting a drug for a pet is easier and faster than for human use. On the livestock side, developing countries are consuming more protein. Yield 0.59% (Analysts’ price target is $136.14)

TOP PICK
They make drugs for pets. $6.2 billion was spent in 2001 on pets and now it's over $15 billion. Each owner spend $3,000 on their pet, mostly out of pocket. The process to get a pet drug to market is faster than a drug for humans. Lots of growth. (Analysts’ price target is $135.31)

BUY
The companion animal market has grown very strongly in the developed world. This company has less exposure to livestock. They provide testing services to vets. He likes the company. He likes the long term prospects of the company but banks will do better if interest rates keep going up.
