The 3 Largest Retail Apocalypse-Proof Stocks in 2021
Investors have been talking about the retail apocalypse for years, but it was the pandemic that more clearly separated the retail sector into the haves and have-nots.
Most retailers got crushed by the pandemic, especially mall-based chains like department stores and those in the apparel sector. During a time when e-commerce and features like curbside pickup have become especially important, the mall ecosystem has been a poor fit. Among the sectors that did thrive were home goods retailers and multi-category retailers that benefited from shoppers consolidating trips. The biggest three in that category, Walmart (NYSE: WMT), Costco Wholesale (NASDAQ: COST), and Target (NYSE: TGT), are also the three largest retail apocalypse-proof stocks on the market right now. Let's take a look at what each has to offer.
