A Look Into Consumer Defensive Sector Value Stocks

<h3>What is a Value Stock?</h3>
A value stock traditionally has a lower price when compared to stock prices of companies in the same industry. This indicates that the company may be undervalued, as investors are not expressing as much interest in such companies. The most commonly used way to check for value is with the price-to-earnings multiple, or P/E. A low P/E multiple is a good indication that the stock is undervalued. 
<h2>Below is a list of notable value stocks in the consumer defensive sector:</h2>
<ol>
<li>Bunge (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BG#NYSE">BG</a>) - P/E: 9.07</li>
<li>Natural Alternatives Intl (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NAII#NASDAQ">NAII</a>) - P/E: 6.27</li>

</ol>
This quarter, Bunge experienced a decrease in earnings per share, which was $3.45 in Q3 and is now $3.24. Most recently, the company reported a dividend yield of 2.6%, which has increased by 0.14% from last quarter's yield of 2.46%.
Natural Alternatives Intl has reported Q2 earnings per share at $0.31, which has increased by 72.22% compared to Q1, which was 0.18. Industrias Bachoco SAB has reported Q4 earnings per share at $0.08, which has decreased by 91.75% compared to Q3, which was 0.97. The company's most recent dividend yield sits at 2.28%, which has increased by 0.23% from 2.05% last quarter. 
This quarter, Ingles Markets experienced a decrease in earnings per share, which was $3.69 in Q4 and is now $3.65. The company's most recent dividend yield sits at 0.75%, which has increased by 0.08% from 0.67% last quarter. 
Tarena International saw a decrease in earnings per share from 0.45 in Q3 to $-0.18 now. The company's most recent dividend yield sits at 0.0%, which has decreased by 4.32% from 4.32% last quarter. 
The Significance: A value stock may need some time to rebound from its undervalued position. The risk of investing in a value stock is that this emergence may never materialize.

Natural Alternatives International, Inc. (&quot;NAI&quot;) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NAII#NASDAQ">NAII</a>), an international leader in custom contract nutritional supplement manufacturing for over four decades, today announced that new research on the cognitive benefits of SR CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine tablets, a patented sustained release delivery system owned by NAI, has been published in&nbsp;<a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3791010-1&amp;h=2401778467&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mdpi.com%2F2072-6643%2F15%2F4%2F923&amp;a=Nutrients" target="_blank">Nutrients</a>.
Natural Alternatives International announces new research on the cognitive benefits of SR CarnoSyn&reg; beta-alanine tablets
The benefits of CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;Brands&#39; beta-alanine supplementation on functional performance in older adults has been reported in several prior clinical studies. These human studies have demonstrated that supplementing with CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine can delay fatigue, increase strength, and improve functional performance. Various clinical studies concluded that CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine supplementation is associated with improved executive function and that the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of increased tissue carnosine levels supports improved health in older adults.
This new clinical study provided the biggest scale of participants with precise experimental designs, showing SR CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine supplementation benefits cognitive function in sedentary older adults. This clinical study is also the first conducted with a 600 milligram SR CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine tablet providing 2.4 grams of daily supplementation. The study results indicated improved cognitive function in older adults whose cognitive function at baseline was at or below normal. In addition, results indicated significant depression score reductions using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS).
The study included one hundred older adults between the ages of 60-80 who volunteered to participate in this double-blind, randomized controlled study. Any participant who had underlying neurological conditions was not eligible to enroll in the study. All interviews were conducted by a licensed physician. Participants were not permitted to use any additional nutritional supplements for at least six weeks prior to the study.
Before taking their first supplement, participants completed several tests consisting of written questionnaires to assess cognitive function and mood, and a computer-based exam to measure cognitive and executive function. In addition, a series of physical function tests were performed.
Testing occurred prior to supplementation, at the midpoint, and at week ten. Participants were instructed to consume two 600 mg tablets twice per day for the duration of the ten-week study. The SR CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine supplement and the placebo were identical in appearance.
Cognitive and mood measures consisted of cognitive function assessments, including the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), the Stroop pattern recognition test, and the Profile of Mood States (POMS). In addition, participants were also asked to complete the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) and the Geriatric Anxiety Scale (GAS).
&quot;CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;Brands has been devoted to science-based ingredients and products for over 15 years,&quot; said&nbsp;Aaron Starr, Vice President, CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;Brands. &quot;We were very excited to sponsor this clinical study with such a prestigious institution and research team. This was a well-crafted and executed clinical study, especially considering the difficulties of recruiting participants and conducting this study during the pandemic. The positive study results help bolster our existing and extensive CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;research and provides additional scientific evidence of the benefits of CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine to help further educate our customers and consumers.&quot;
SR CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;has six research studies showing brain health and mood improvement, with numerous benefits for users:
<ul>
<li>Improves executive functioning, mental clarity and enhances cognitive process.</li>
<li>Reduces mental fatigue.</li>
<li>Supports brain health, cognitive function, and memory.</li>
<li>Studies show improved attention and task focus in adults.</li>
<li>Helps boost mental clarity, concentration, and alertness.</li>
<li>Promotes a healthy response to everyday stress.</li>
<li>Fosters a more balanced mood and supports a sense of calm.</li>
</ul>
About CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;Brands:
CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;Brands feature two clinically studied, patented ingredients available exclusively from Natural Alternatives International, Inc.: CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;instant release beta-alanine powder and SR CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;sustained release beta-alanine tablets. In 2019, CarnoSyn&reg;&nbsp;beta-alanine successfully obtained NDI status from the FDA and received Self-Affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status. SR CarnoSyn&reg;, an advanced delivery form of CarnoSyn&reg;, received GRAS affirmation in 2017. The GRAS affirmation allows NAI to broaden their product offerings within the food and beverage industries, including medical and other fortified food products.

Stocks That Hit 52-Week Lows On Friday

<h3>What Defines a Value Stock?</h3>

<h2>The following stocks are considered to be notable value stocks in the consumer defensive sector:</h2>
<ol>
<li>Herbalife Nutrition (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLF#NYSE">HLF</a>) - P/E: 6.16</li>
<li>Bridgford Foods (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRID#NASDAQ">BRID</a>) - P/E: 3.38</li>

<li>Adecoagro (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AGRO#NYSE">AGRO</a>) - P/E: 5.44</li>
</ol>
This quarter, Herbalife Nutrition experienced a decrease in earnings per share, which was $0.99 in Q1 and is now $0.96. Its most recent dividend yield is at 1.71%, which has decreased by 1.82% from 3.53% in the previous quarter.
This quarter, Bridgford Foods experienced an increase in earnings per share, which was $-0.09 in Q2 and is now $0.04. Most recently, Ingles Markets reported earnings per share at $3.57, whereas in Q2 earnings per share sat at $3.61.

<h3>What Defines a Value Stock?</h3>
A value stock traditionally has a lower price when compared to stock prices of companies in the same industry. This indicates that the company may be undervalued, as investors are not expressing as much interest in such companies. The most commonly used way to check for value is with the price-to-earnings multiple, or P/E. A low P/E multiple is a good indication that the stock is undervalued.
