Macy’s, Inc. (M), Whole Foods Market, Inc. (WFM): Three Stocks for an Unequal America

Page 2 of 2

Taking out the $1.17 billion Whole Foods Market, Inc. (NASDAQ:WFM) keeps in net cash, the company trades at 2013 33 times P/E but it is also growing EPS and sales by 18.75% and 13% YOY, respectively.

Foolish conclusion

With the exception of Coach, which is also growing very fast abroad (40% YOY top-line growth in China), all the companies named above depend heavily on the mood of high income US consumers. With the stock market reaching historical levels and real estate in fast recovery mode, I think they are a good bet.
