ConAgra Foods, Inc. (CAG)

CAPS Rating:
****

A North America's packaged food company serving grocery retailers, as well as restaurants and other foodservice establishments.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Demand for CAG's products should remain stable despite any economic downturn. Dividend is good, cash flows are strong, and they've got dozens of brands that are known by nearly everyone in the country. The only risk I really see is the potential for increased commodity costs.

Large packaged food company. Good and safe bet for the current market as it provides basic food products that people have to buy no matter what state the economy is in. The stock is currently trading at a low P/E of about 11.5 and yields a rich dividend of around 3.6% Recently sold its commodity trading and merchandising operations to reduce it's risk and announced a repurchase of approximately $900 million of its shares during the first half of fiscal 2009. Analysts estimate a solid 8% growth over the next 5 years which is pretty good in the present economy.

I think this stock is a low risk play for the current tough market and should deliver good returns over the long term.
