Death care: a crisis-resistant industry
24 June 2022
On five out of seven days in mid-June 2022, over 90% of the stocks in the S&P 500 declined – the most overwhelming display of selling in history. There hasn't been a precedent for a sell-off of this nature since 1928.
Yet, the stock of one particular American company stood relatively firm.
Service Corporation International (ISIN US8175651046, NYSE:SCI) is the leading provider of funerals in the US. Even after the recent sell-off, its stock trades a mere 12% below its all-time high. Compared to ten years ago, it's up 500%. Over the past 20 years, it's up 34 times. Speak of a crisis-resistant investment!
The death care industry benefits from the only absolute certainty that we all have to live with: sooner or later, everyone becomes a customer.
At a time when tech, software and Internet investments have gone out of fashion, one particular death care company could come back into focus. Around the world, there are about a dozen publicly listed companies that provide funerals, cremations, and related services. I picked the one that is currently out of favour, but probably for not much longer.
The stock featured in this report should benefit from not one or two, but three catalysts during the remainder of 2022. The first one of these catalysts is due next month.
The best "stimulant" company in the world?
Easy, cheap exposure to Russian stocks
A non-obvious crisis beneficiary
The best business in the world?
