What Stocks Have The Best Black Friday Deals?

Let’s take a look at the businesses set to benefit from this year’s Black Friday sales, and what stocks are on discount at the moment

Nov. 26, 2021

It’s impossible to focus on just one company that will profit on Black Friday. So, let’s check out who’s set to benefit the most and see if there are any good deals investors could potentially add to their portfolio.

Black Friday Stocks

Amazon 

Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) has lagged the S&P so far in 2021 but it is still one of the top destinations for shoppers every year. Even though brick-and-mortar will likely see a rebound — since there was a 52% decrease in in-store foot traffic in 2020, for obvious reasons. That being said, COVID-19 cases spiking could play a role in this year’s buying frenzy as people opt to stay at home to avoid crowds, and can comfortably compare prices right from their phone or laptop.

Apple 

Another likely winner is Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), which, in a recent product launch, announced its new Macbook Pro, HomePod Mini, and the new version of one of the top-selling items in 2020, AirPods. During China’s 11/11 (Single’s Day or China’s Black Friday equivalent), Apple products were noted as top-selling items across the board and were one of the 400 brands that achieved over $15 million in sales, and that was just on the Alibaba platform. So expect Apple to report big numbers in Q4.

Ulta Beauty 

Last year, beauty products were one of the best performing categories, showing sales growth of 46% and 47% on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, respectively. Ulta Beauty (NYSE: ULTA) is a top pick in this sector with double-digit revenue growth and 1,296 retail stores in 50 states. 

Paypal 

Another stock set to benefit is PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL), the Fintech payments and banking platform. Despite beating earnings estimates in its last four consecutive quarters, it’s down over 21% in the last month alone and is now sitting at a 52-week low of approx $189 per share.
