📉 Dollar General’s stock has significantly dropped, presenting a potential opportunity amid market fears of a recession.
🛒 The company’s business model is resilient, but it faces challenges such as inventory issues and competition from online retailers like Amazon.
🌱 Despite current difficulties, Dollar General has the potential to recover as inventory issues are resolved and consumer spending stabilizes.
@Artedeinvertir:
“Now, as I mentioned before, here are current examples of this first piece of advice, out of the five we’re going to see from Warren Buffett, explained. One of these companies could be Dollar General, which is a very good business. If you look at the chart since it went public, it has given enormous returns, except that during the last year, it has fallen from 240 to 130. It is very rare in such stable companies, because it is not a cyclical sector or one with much debt, to see such large drops. This is what Warren Buffett explains, that the market was afraid of a potential recession and that consumer spending would be affected by online sales from Amazon, because the company sells low-value products. These are what are called dollar stores, where there are many items for 1, 3, or 5 dollars, but they are very good businesses. They have a lot of scale; practically three or four companies dominate the entire market in the United States. The company has also had an inventory problem, where, when there was inflation, they stocked up too much with very expensive merchandise, and now that inflation has normalized, the profit margin has compressed. But that will not last forever; the inventories will rotate, and eventually, they could emerge from that difficult situation. So, well, it’s an example, not a recommendation either, but these situations that Warren Buffett talks about happen daily in the markets.”
