A Benjamin Graham screener has brought this one to light for me.

Currently trades with a P/E of 14, a P/B of 1.4, and a P/B of 0.4, which are all below the company's 10 year averages.

While the company has only posted 3% revenue growth and 4% EPS growth yoy for the last decade, Weis does offer a growing 3% dividend and has no long-term debt.

Despite holding a bullish long-term outlook on the market, I believe Weis makes a great "recession-proof" holding in a market that is at all-time highs.

Lack of debt will allow for small acquisitions and easier expansion and updating of stores.
