Are These The Best Consumer Stocks To Buy In September?

When it comes to the stock market today, consumer-focused companies continue to gain ground. For the most part, this would explain investor interest in the top consumer stocks now. After all, there are countless means of marketing businesses, wares, and services to consumers in the world today. This would be the case from video streaming services and social media platforms to e-commerce and gaming. Not to mention, the industry appears to be riding economic recovery tailwinds now. This is evident as the recent earnings season saw numerous key consumer-based companies exceed expectations. As such, it would not surprise me to see investors looking for the best consumer stocks to buy now.

For instance, we could look at the likes of Hippo Holdings (NYSE: HIPO). The California-based insurance company would be a go-to for consumers amidst times of uncertainty. Through the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics, the company provides property insurance services. At the same time, even some of the biggest names in the consumer industry continue to bolster their operations. Over the weekend, news broke of Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) looking to provide external shipping services. In theory, this would place the e-commerce giant in direct competition with FedEx (NYSE: FDX) and United Parcel Services (NYSE: UPS). Given all of this, could one of these consumer stocks be top picks in the stock market now?
