Here's My Top Stock to Buy in December
December is a busy time of year. The holidays mean lots of shopping and travel. The cold weather means lots of warm clothes and firing up your home's heating system. So you'd probably think that the top stock to buy this month would be in retail, or perhaps a gas utility. While there may be opportunities in those markets, I'm sizing up a stock in a very different industry: ethanol.
It's not obvious, but there's a good reason for investors to check in on ethanol stocks around this time of year -- every year. Better yet, emerging trends in the industry provide additional catalysts for investors looking for value in an expensive stock market. Specifically, Green Plains (NASDAQ: GPRE) is my favorite stock to buy in December because of both near-term and long-term opportunities.
