Oktober Is Here

Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV - 85.91
Molson Coors Brewing Company - 45.05
The Boston Beer Company - 111.97

Dow Jones Ind. Ave. - 13,437.13
S&P 500 - 1,440.67
NASDAQ - 3,116.23



    
In this past week, we have seen a decrease in stock prices of the brewing industry. This is part due to an increase in demand for beer. With football, Oktoberfest, and other fall activities, the price of producing beer is increasing. This is what drives the price higher in your nearest supermarket, or gas station. It is the simple law of supply in demand. However, with this slight decline in stock prices, now is the time to buy!! The Boston Beer Company, known for its craft beers, would be a good company to invest in because of a recent increase in popularity of craft brews. I can still predict an increase in stock prices of the craft beer breweries. New seasonal beers are just hitting the market this week as we step into October. Also let’s not forget about Oktoberfest. We should see an increase in stocks also due to the millions of liters of beer being consumed.
