5 Travel-Related Stocks That Are Actually Benefitting From the Coronavirus Pandemic

Impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic continue to hurt many businesses and may cause the end of some. Others have, not surprisingly, done well as consumers buy more packaged goods from grocery stores and perform many work and personal tasks from the confines of their homes.

But another trend that's emerging is the desire for more outdoor recreation activities. Hiking, biking, running, and boating have become more popular ways to get exercise in the open safety of the outdoors. Recreational vehicle (RV) makers Camping World Holdings (NYSE: CWH), Winnebago (NYSE: WGO), and Thor Industries (NYSE: THO), as well as off-road vehicle and boating manufacturers Polaris (NYSE: PII) and Brunswick Corp. (NYSE: BC), have all seen their businesses grow through the pandemic. They help people get to new vacation spots and supply what people need to enjoy those trips. And there's reason to think this is a new trend worth looking into.
