The 75th anniversary of Prohibition’s end highlights an apparent point in a bear market, like what we have been facing recently: When all else fails, invest in consumption.

While there have not been many food and beverage consumptions that have taken off (where are you, Chipotle?), most have held their ground.  Sure, the rising price of gas has made shipping these items more expensive and generating containers also more expensive, but few have gone broke recently investing in these companies. 

Even in hard times, consumption never ends.
