Down markets = increase in spirits and wine consumption. Diverse brand offerings and a stable of premium brands such as Jack Daniels, Finlandia, and Southern Comfort position Brown Forman to offer desirable returns in this market and going forward.

This is one of those stocks I always have in the portfolio. In the weeks that are so bad you don't even want to look at your holdings, this is a stock that invariably makes me realize things could have been worse if I didn't have it. Nothing glitzy, but good for keeping up the morale if you allocate a continual percentage of the portfolio to it. Nice little perodic dividend too. In really strong markets I wouldn't expect it to outperform, but if we hit a long bout of stagflation I think it'll hold up quite well in comparison to the rest of the market.

Great quarter. Breakout. Rower.

This economy has me wanting to buy alcohol stocks. Jack Daniels is still going to get drank during a recession, so we might as well buy this stock as well as Constellation Brands. BTW it has been beating the S&P for a year now, so sit back relax and enjoy some good ole' Tennessee Sippin' Wiskey! CHEERS!

During what period of time has alchohol ever lost money? Even during prohibition people were making big bucks when the stuff was banned. Outperform long term with some qualilty brands and a good market model

Maker of Southern Comfort - but this is not a big minus! I find that stuff I don't like profits greatly, too refined tastes.
If all else fails, 'SoCo' can be made into rocket fuel to mine the asteroids.

With the housing market and economy what it is, how can you go wrong with booze?
Recs
Global demand for premium spirits esp'ly whiskies. Also note the barrels - many Scotch whisky distilleries buy used barrels from the US esp Jack Daniels, which is one of BF-B's brands.

People buy alcholhal of every type.'
If times are bearish they buy and drink at home. If times are bullish they spend in bars
hotels or any place that sells alcholhal.
It will make money at any time.
