How To Drink More Beer, Eat A Lot, Lose Weight And Make Money!

I biked every day this week.  I hope to keep in shape.

After my last trip around the lake, I was hungry.

So I asked myself "Is there a way to make money losing weight and eating more?"

Sure.

The obesity ETF SLIM has a portfolio of companies and have something to do with the weight loss industry or healthcare.  Its largest holdings are Novo Nordisk (diabetes) and Weight Watchers. So yes, you can invest in obesity.

And, there is PBJ, a popular ETF called "dynamic food and beverage".  Its largest holdings are Constellation Brands (beer and liquor) and McDonalds (which is now moving away from healthier foods and back to its fast food (greasy) roots.  So yes, you can invest in beer and fast food.

PBJ is up about 20% over the last 3 years.

SLIM is up 9% since inception about a year ago.

Looking at the ratio chart above the trend clearly favors SLIM.

That said, my thoughts are you could invest in both SLIM and PBJ and play both sides of the "table" on this one for a long time.

More importantly, my thoughts are that you should eat right and stay in shape!  Success in investing takes a long term outlook and to do that you need to stay alive!
