7 Growing Consumer Staples Stocks to Buy for Rising Inflation - 6 of 7

 
 

#6 - Archer-Daniels Midland (NYSE:ADM)

The Archer-Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM) helps provide products and services that are essential to the agricultural industry. This puts it at the beginning of the supply chain, and the stock should have a long runway for growth.  

The company has one of the most attractive valuations of any of the consumer stocks on this list. ADM stock trades at a forward P/E ratio of 10x. However, some investors may be concerned about projections for an 11% decline in earnings in the next 12 months. That was evidenced in the company's last earnings report, which showed a YOY dip on the bottom line

But looking ahead, the company has a forward P/E ratio of just 10x. And the Archer-Daniels Midland analyst ratings on MarketBeat suggest a 23% upside for the stock.  

And that lets you focus on the company's dividend, which currently offers a 2.29% yield. Not surprisingly, this is another Dividend King that has increased its dividend for 51 consecutive years.
