The strike, if prolonged, could lead to supply constraints which may cause prices to rise, economists warn. These are the sectors that could be the most impacted by the strike:
Food and Beverage: The dozen or so U.S. ports affected by the strike import nearly $100 million a month of beverages and vinegar, according to a <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/10/02/port-strike-shortages-food-cars-alcohol/">report</a> from the Washington Post. According to the American Farm Bureau Federation via the Washington Post, 80% of all imported beer, whiskey, scotch and more come through the ports will be impacted by the strike.
Constellation Brands (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>), the maker of Modelo, is one of the companies that imports the most beer to the U.S., although Constellation may be able to avoid disruptions caused by the port through ground transportation from Mexico. Heineken NV (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HEINY#OTC">HEINY</a>) and other European beverage companies may feel more of the strike&#8217;s affects.

According to the Washington Post, the U.S. ports import more than half a billion dollars worth of cars and car parts every month. The auto industry already saw disruptions in its supply chain earlier this year when the Francis Scott Key bridge collapsed in Baltimore, hindering shipments through one of the country's largest ports. Companies that rely on importing car parts, such as AutoZone Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZO#NYSE">AZO</a>) and O'Reilly Automotive Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORLY#NASDAQ">ORLY</a>), could also see operations disrupted by the strike. Construction: Machinery and construction equipment account for more than $670 million in monthly imports through the dozen or so impacted ports, according to the Washington Post. Homebuilders such as DR Horton Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>), Lennar Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEN#NYSE">LEN</a>) and others could see operations delayed if the strike is prolonged. Overall, the strike could lead to price increases and supply constraints across multiple sectors if it persists beyond a couple of weeks. In addition to the strike, flooding and storm damage from Hurricane Helene could also disrupt supply chain operations in North Carolina and other southeastern states.

Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>) shares are<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" rel="noreferrer noopener"> trading higher on Tuesday.</a>
Constellation Brands has revised its FY25 comparable EPS forecast to $13.60 &#8211; $13.80, compared to the previous forecast of $13.50 &#8211; $13.80. This is compared to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">the $13.70 estimate.</a>
Constellation Brands projects FY25 reported EPS in the range of $3.05 &#8211; $7.92, down from the previous forecast of $14.63 &#8211; $14.93 and well below the $14.62 estimate.
The company anticipates a hefty non-cash goodwill impairment loss of around $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion for its Wine and Spirits division in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, which is factored into the revised reported&nbsp;EPS outlook.
The company also revised its Enterprise net sales growth forecast to 4% &#8211; 6% (from 6% &#8211; 7% prior), citing incremental macroeconomic headwinds affecting consumers, particularly unemployment and prolonged inventory destocking in wine and spirits markets.
The company updated Beer net sales growth to 6% &#8211; 8%&nbsp;(from 7% &#8211; 9% prior) and Wine and Spirits net sales outlook to (6)% &#8211; (4)% (from (0.5)% &#8211; 0.5% prior).
&#8220;While ongoing macroeconomic headwinds, particularly rising unemployment, have led to a recent deceleration in the rate of growth of consumer demand for our products, we are on track to deliver a solid mid single-digit volume increase this fiscal year for our Beer Business,&#8221; said Constellation Brands President and Chief Executive Officer Bill&nbsp;Newlands.
&#8220;These trends have been most notable in the top five states for our Beer Business, which account for just over half of our volumes; however, we continue to see volume growth within the low to mid single-digit range in these states and within the high single-digit range on average across the rest of the country.&#8221;

The CEO noted that improvements from earlier initiatives benefit major brands in the Wine and Spirits sector, although category challenges continue to impact the fiscal year outlook.
Despite these challenges, the company has outpaced the CPG sector growth by nearly 3 percentage points in dollar sales and its Beer Business has achieved notable gains, including being the top dollar share gainer in its category and the third largest in the Beverage industry.
RBC Capital analyst Nik Modi reaffirms Constellation Brands with an Outperform rating and maintains a $308 price target.

Shares of companies within the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness following US economic concerns. An economic slowdown could impact consumer spending.

Constellation Brands's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>) short percent of float has fallen 7.05% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.54 million shares sold short, which is 1.45% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.66 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Constellation Brands has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Constellation Brands's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Constellation Brands's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.54%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Peering Into Constellation Brands's Recent Short Interest

Barclays analyst Lauren Lieberman maintains Constellation Brands (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>) with a Overweight and raises the price target from $287 to $295.

Barclays Maintains Overweight on Constellation Brands, Raises Price Target to $295

Before the markets opened on Thursday. PepsiCo Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pep#NASDAQ">PEP</a>) issued its second quarter financials. While earnings surpassed Wall Street estimates, revenue came short as&nbsp;its three North American business units reported a declining volume.&nbsp;In addition, Pepsi was more cautious with its full-year sales outlook. As a result, its&nbsp;shares were down 1.7% during premarket trading.
One of its rivals one the global snacks and beverages front, Mondelez International (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mdlz#NASDAQ">MDLZ</a>) is scheduled to announce its fiscal second quarter earnings on Thursday, July 25th. Over the last four quarters, Mondelez has consecutively surpassed earnings estimates. But Mondelez, known as the Oreo and Cadbury maker, was also fined $366 million a month ago for rigging European markets. More precisely, the EU regulators found that since 2016, Mondelez has been&nbsp;hindering the trade of chocolate, cookies and coffee between European Union countries in order maintain high prices of its products. Mondelez has been deliberately limiting cross-border sales within the EU, abusing its dominant position. Responding to the commission who found its illegal practices&nbsp;prevented retailers from being able to freely source products in the EU member states with lower prices, Mondelez spokesperson stated that the penalty related to isolated incidents which were&nbsp;remedied before the commission started the investigation.
Another industry peer, Constellation Brands Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/stz#NYSE">STZ</a>) reported its May quarter financials.&nbsp;&nbsp;Constellation Brands continued to beat profit estimates despite delivering a mixed report. Unlike PepsiCo, Constellation Brands reported beer that had its fourteenth consecutive quarter of growth with demand rising 8.3% due to wider consumption. However, Constellation Brands is also struggling with a weakness on one of its fronts, namely wine and spirits whose sales contracted by 5.1% YoY. Fortunately for Constellation, the sluggish demand from wines and spirits was compensated by consumers switching to beer. The beer business made more than 80% of the latest quarter&rsquo;s revenue that Constellation Brands reported.
<h3>PepsiCo&rsquo;s Second Quarter Highlights</h3>
For the quarter ended on June 15th, PepsiCo reported net sales rose almost 1% to $22.5 billion, which was short of LSEG&rsquo;s estimate of&nbsp;$22.57 billion. Fueled by international operations, organic revenue that excludes acquisitions, divestitures and currency changes, actually grew 1.9%.
But net income attributable to the company amounted to $3.08 billion&nbsp;or $2.23 per share, rising from last year&rsquo;s comparable quarter when PepsiCo earned&nbsp;$2.75 billion, or $1.99 per share. When adjusted, earnings per share amounted to $2.28, surpassing LSEG&rsquo;s estimate of&nbsp;$2.16.
Pepsi got&nbsp;hurt by declining demand at its home market.
In North America,&nbsp;financials were hurt&nbsp;by safety product recalls and shrinking product demand as years of price increases led consumers to buy fewer of PepsiCo&rsquo;s products and switch to cheaper alternatives. Frito-Lay North America, the company&rsquo;s second largest business after the beverages unit, reported a volume decrease of 4%,&nbsp;while the&nbsp;beverage unit reported a decrease of 3%. Quaker Foods North America continues to deal with food safety recalls for potential salmonella contamination that was issued in December and January, with its volume shrinking by 17%.&nbsp;
<h3>A More Cautious Outlook&nbsp;</h3>
While PepsiCo previously guided for organic revenue growth of at least 4%, it now expects approximately 4%. But it reiterated its core constant currency earnings growth outlook of at least 8%.
On a brighter note, international demand remained strong despite the price increases. But in the U.S., its largest market, PepsiCo is facing increased competition from private-label brands.&nbsp;

Pepsi Reported Rising Profits But Demand Continues To Shrink At Its Home Market

Breweries in Minneapolis now offer hemp-derived, THC-infused drinks on tap, thanks to a new Minnesota law effective July 1. This change allows taprooms to serve these drinks on tap, not only in cans, provided they display the required label information.
Dan Schnabel, taproom manager at Headflyer Brewing, told CBS that his team anticipated the statute change and quickly adapted. &quot;Having it on tap gives us so many different options for our consumers to taste it, to try it, to enjoy one while they&#39;re here on site,&quot; Schnabel said.
<h2>Regulations Made It Possible</h2>
This development follows the legalization of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/hemp">THC edibles</a> derived from hemp two years ago, which are capped at 5 milligrams per serving and 50 milligrams per package. Last summer, liquor stores began selling these products, accompanied by a 10% gross receipts sales tax.
The state collected over $11.5 million in revenue from July through May, according to the Minnesota Department of Revenue.
<h3>Positive Impact On Local Businesses</h3>
Schnabel noted the positive impact on business, especially for customers seeking alternatives to beer. He also observed growing interest and expanding distribution. As the state prepares for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39627110/minnesota-ag-ellison-asks-judge-to-dismiss-lawsuit-by-cannabis-home-growers-who-want-to-sell-the">legal marijuana sales</a> next year, the cannabis market is poised for further growth.
The new Office of Cannabis Management reports nearly 3,900 businesses selling hemp-derived products, though only 1,873 have paid the gross receipts tax due to various exemptions and non-compliance issues.
CBS <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/new-minnesota-law-allows-breweries-to-sell-hemp-thc-infused-drinks-on-tap/?utm_source=www.cultivated.news&amp;utm_medium=newsletter&amp;utm_campaign=minnesota-says-yes-to-hemp-infused-drinks-at-breweries">reported</a>&nbsp;that with legal marijuana sales imminent, including a 10% gross receipts tax, Minnesota&#39;s market is expected to reach $1.5 billion in annual sales by the decade&#39;s end, according to Vicente LLP.

<h2>What&#39;s&nbsp;Behind The Hemp Hype?</h2>
Recent financial data from Beacon Securities highlights the rapid growth of the cannabis industry compared to major players in alcohol, tobacco&nbsp;and consumer packaged goods (CPG). Companies like<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/05/38802478/coca-cola-pepsico-and-nestl-are-top-plastic-polluters-is-hemp-the-answer-to-nanoplastics-in-the-o"> Coca-Cola</a> (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ko#NYSE">KO</a>), Marlboro (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mo#NYSE">MO</a>), and Budweiser (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bud#NYSE">BUD</a>) are set to be outpaced by cannabis.

<h3>Changing Consumption Patterns</h3>
For the first time, daily cannabis consumption in the U.S. has surpassed daily alcohol use. A 2024 study revealed that 17.7 million Americans reported using marijuana daily or near-daily in 2022, compared to 14.7 million daily or near-daily alcohol consumers.
This shift underscores the growing market potential for non-alcoholic cannabis products as more consumers opt for healthier and socially acceptable alternatives to alcohol.
