Consumers will likely get a reprieve from the Trump Administration&#8217;s tariffs at least until the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44149833/trump-delays-ford-gm-stellantis-from-from-tariffs-on-mexico-canada-for-one-month">first week of April</a>. Still, the scattershot tariffs, combined with weakening economic data, seem to have spooked investors.
We won&#8217;t know what happens next for a while, but Mexico <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44092335/trumps-tariffs-threaten-canada-mexico-china-and-american-wallets">continues to be a target</a> of the Administration&#8217;s tariff policies.
We&#8217;re already starting to see the effects of this on imports like vehicle parts, electronics and apparel. But the even bigger hit may land on food and beverages. Berries, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, avocados and many more perishables are all imported to the U.S. from Mexico at high rates, especially during the off-season.
Tariffs and uncertainty are already impacting these imports, and more will likely follow. Companies that rely on these imports will struggle to pass on the added costs to their customers.
Let&#8217;s take a look at four food stocks you&#8217;d be wise to avoid.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. </h2>
Let&#8217;s start with the obvious one. Chipotle (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NASDAQ">CMG</a>), whose stock has taken hits from multiple directions over the last few months. For starters, fears of an economic slowdown have shifted how Americans eat, and restaurant sales are beginning to sag as more people choose to eat at home. And now, the promise of tariffs on Mexico threatens to drive up prices for the casual fast-dining chain, which sources many crucial products from Mexico, especially its famous guacamole.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcx4_iWwYRKwRtJVxI0R_h-7vkMzPD-2Y-jY-z-6qiVyqiMneTBS_-ddOVRCiLp-GgBiCtx3YyIrdf7o_NvrpVNzJ5sNHKP9Z7fXXIgKesqmb5sKm1NpMsAdsXbSrtB4-vWRfMAqA?key=t0qZDK9I7zAEqr3n0pxiRKSh" alt="" /></figure>
Chipotle could see severe price increases on its menu items, which source many ingredients like lettuce, tomatoes, avocados, fresh peppers and spices from Mexico. And while Chipotle's margins are strong compared to competitors like Wendy's or Domino's, gross margins have declined for three consecutive quarters. The stock's valuation is pretty lofty as well, with a 42.7 price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, 2.36 PEG ratio, and a 5.7 Price-to-Sales (P/S) rate. CMG's latest earnings release disappointed investors as the company matched EPS estimates but missed on revenue. Benzinga Edge gives the stock only a 28.28 score for Momentum and 16.29 for Value.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Calavo Growers Inc. </h2>
One of the largest growers of avocados in the world, Calavo Growers (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVGW#NASDAQ">CVGW</a>) would face significant pressure from Mexico tariffs. Calavo sells avocados, tomatoes and fresh papaya to grocery stores, food distributors, clubhouse wholesalers and food service industries. In a sector with already razor-thin margins, Calavo has limited ability to absorb price increases and also limited negotiating power with its clients, who also have thin margins, like grocery stores and wholesalers. 
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXf4CgppD4UCDFy-OLP1UK6Zoo1pwE_kEWSlYIEg3Sv6Tta0rwJcu6l80DFSzEMuo-tN3SDPM9roeEuYMNB0kE2zPKrydnLW2ATcb-HzNxxcM0PhfwoOsrySF_8OBXww71svyGPF?key=t0qZDK9I7zAEqr3n0pxiRKSh" alt="" /></figure>
Calavo recently broke a string of 12 consecutive quarters with negative net margins. Still, its valuation remains elevated as the stock trades at 30 times earnings, two times book value and 19.5 times free cash flow. It also grades poorly in two crucial Benzinga Edge metrics: 22.73 in Momentum and 35.38 in Growth. In its most recent earnings release on March 12, the company beat on EPS estimates but missed on revenue. Analysis of CVGW is sparse, with only one firm updating its view so far in 2025. Lake Street analyst Ben Klieve has maintained the stock at Buy but lowered his price target to $35 from $40.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">US Foods Holding Corp. </h2>
Another fresh food distributor with consistent revenue and earnings declines recently is US Foods Holding Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USFD#NYSE">USFD</a>), which distributes perishable, non-perishable, and non-food products to restaurants, schools, hospitals, government offices and grocery stores. Customers can get fresh, frozen, or dry food delivered from 70 different locations. The firm lists over 250,000 establishments as clients. US Foods has better profit margins than Calavo, but it&#8217;s still in a very slender range. The company saw its net profit margin shrink in the most recent Q4 earnings release, which was the first margin decline in nearly two years.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfO8JwghAwbl-G6W1wyRtknHgo7u-cNJih9zo4EPIdm6fBkczpmpbeWxxNq9pKodml-sbbMQF7Fl_agiUQ2GPaEjVlbslLCuQWKVOOmJvPibajMxs3SCR75tSfk4kCD_9t1I0vj?key=t0qZDK9I7zAEqr3n0pxiRKSh" alt="" /></figure>
US Foods could suffer from tariffs and declining restaurant foot traffic in the coming months. USFD earnings have been evaporating for three straight quarters and its valuation has gotten stretched. The stock currently trades at 32.7 times earnings, and despite its margin growth, the company still lags behind competitors like Sysco and Mission Produce in turning revenue dollars into actual profit.
Benzinga Edge isn't too fond of the stock's short-term future either, with just a 29.24 Value score and 43.19 Growth score. Some analysts defended the stock in February with price target hikes despite a Q4 revenue. However, EPS and revenue projections for the Q1 report on May 8 are lower than in the three previous quarters.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. </h2>
Don't let the enticing dividend fool you &#8211; Fresh Del Monte Produce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDP#NYSE">FDP</a>) could struggle in the coming months if tariffs take a bite out of the company's profits. Fresh Del Monte produces and distributes fresh fruit and vegetables, including pineapples, melons, avocados, bananas, non-tropical fruits and other prepared foods. However, alarm bells began to sound in February thanks to a disastrous Q4 earnings report, which saw the company miss EPS estimates by nearly 30% and revenue by almost 2%.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXf8D0roez_0diA0WBOEcZ8vW9dUoFGyGLNFFNctpfV8pr38sF3lRyYTChq_-uhOzGiBSjLDwVAj8kxZMVZCxQfBV-JUvdQ85aJqF1RVk985RfG83XFgqnqKWfJnYLuLJb34NXJj?key=t0qZDK9I7zAEqr3n0pxiRKSh" alt="" /></figure>
Fresh Del Monte posted a 3.3% profit margin in the most recent quarter, which is stronger than food giants like Tyson Foods or Archer Daniels but still less attractive than smaller competitors like Cal-Maine Foods and Vital Farms. The stock trades at just 10 times forward earnings with a 0.34 Price-to-Sales (P/S) ratio, but Benzinga Edge has poor short-term views for FDP shares thanks to a 52.13 Quality score and a paltry 4.48 Growth score.

The space economy is seeing an influx of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space">investment and innovation</a>.
Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUNR#NASDAQ">LUNR</a>) expects to release its fourth-quarter 2024 earnings on March 24 before the market opens. The robust top-line expansion of its lunar payload services and NASA contracts make it a prime stock in the growing space exploration space as well as the aerospace and defense sector.
Intuitive Machines&#8217; forward 12-month price-to-sales (P/S) of 3.17X is above the peer group average of 2.32x, reflecting a premium valuation. This implies that investors are paying a premium price relative to anticipated sales growth compared to peers.

That said, Intuitive Machines is a volatile stock, as understood from its high Beta of 1.31, per CNBC. Beta of 1 and above means the stock tends to move more reactive to developments than the market in in general. For interested investors seeking exposure to the sector but without much of the involved risks, ETFs provide diversified exposure to the sectors. 
This article examines the central themes regarding Intuitive Machines and identifies pertinent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETFs offering exposure to the space economy</a> and the aerospace and defense sector.
The business of Intutive Machines is based on lunar missions and sophisticated space technologies. The contracts of the company with NASA, such as being part of the IM-1, IM-2, and IM-3 lunar payload missions, reflect its promise in the commercial space segment.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pertinent ETFs</h2>
<ul>
<li>Procure Space ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UFO#NASDAQ">UFO</a>): Tracks the S-Network Space Index, including space-related companies including Intuitive Machines. It&#8217;s expense ratio is 0.94%.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>ARK Space Exploration &amp; Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKX#BATS">ARKX</a>): Although it does not carry LUNR in its holdings, this fund actively invests in the companies pioneering space exploration and innovation, like Iridium Satellite (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IRDM#NASDAQ">IRDM</a>) and Rocket Lab Usa Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RKLB#NASDAQ">RKLB</a>). It carries an expense ratio of 0.75%.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>iShares U.S. Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITA#BATS">ITA</a>): Follows the Dow Jones U.S. Aerospace &amp; Defense Index, and carries an expense ratio of 0.4%. ITA&#8217;s portfolio is significantly skewed toward well-known aerospace and defense companies, in contrast to space-focused funds that contain speculative stocks like LUNR, which has NASA and Near Space Network contracts. More than 40% of the fund&#8217;s total assets are held by its top three holdings, which are GE Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>), RTX Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>), and Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>). ITA has been able to perform well during market turbulence thanks to this defensive allocation.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>SPDR S&amp;P Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XAR#NYSE">XAR</a>): Follows the S&amp;P Aerospace &amp; Defense Select Industry Index, and has an expense ratio of 0.35%. Since LUNR has been growing its aerospace and defense contract business, there is a possibility of XAR including LUNR in its portfolio in one of its coming reallocations.</li>
</ul>
With the space economy growing, Intuitive Machines&#8217; growth highlights the growing overlap of space exploration, defense, and cutting-edge technology. 
With LUNR&#8217;s participation in lunar missions and advanced innovations, the firm is an appealing investment opportunity for investors. Nonetheless, due to its high valuation, investors would need to evaluate their risk tolerance and look at diversified ETF approaches that offer exposure to the general space and defense sectors. Through the use of ETFs, investors are able to ride this dynamic and fast-growing sector while controlling risk.

Elon Musk has made another explosive claim about government waste, alleging that the U.S. Treasury and other federal agencies operate &#8220;magic money computers&#8221; that can issue payments with little oversight. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDREZmpkIz8">Speaking</a> on &#8220;Verdict with Ted Cruz&#8221; at the White House, Musk told Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and co-host Ben Ferguson that his team had uncovered 14 such computers.
&#8220;They&#8217;re mostly at Treasury; some are at [Department of Health and Human Services]. There&#8217;s one or two at State, there&#8217;s some at [Department of Defense],&#8221; he said.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Billions in Payments with Little Oversight</h2>
&#8220;They just send money out of nothing,&#8221; Musk said, alleging that these systems process trillions of dollars in government payments with errors that could be costing taxpayers billions.
Musk, who has been working closely with the federal government since Donald Trump returned to the presidency, claimed that government financial systems are in disarray, making it easy for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44328962/1-9-billion-federal-scam-2-trillion-in-federal-waste-the-latest-findings-from-doge-as-elon-musk-says-money-is-poorly-spent">waste and fraud to thrive</a>.&nbsp;
&#8220;Okay, so, you may think like the government computers all talk to each other, they synchronize, they add up what funds are going somewhere and that they're coherent and that the numbers, for example, that you&#8217;re presented as a senator are actually the real numbers,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They're not. I mean, they're not totally wrong, but they're probably off by 5% or 10% in some cases.&#8221;
He continued, &#8220;I call a magic money computer any computer which can just make money out of thin air. It just issues payments.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Unchecked Spending and Massive Waste</h2>
Musk also said nearly every federal agency is overspending on software licenses, media subscriptions, and credit cards. Some departments pay for software no one has ever logged into, while others have double the number of government credit cards compared to actual staff members. &#8220;I still don't have a good explanation for why this is the case,&#8221; Musk admitted.
The billionaire estimated that 80% of the problem is waste, with 20% being outright fraud. One example he highlighted was $1.9 billion allegedly given to a nonprofit linked to Stacey Abrams, a voting rights activist and two-time Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate. The money was meant for environmental projects, but Musk said the organization has only provided about 100 appliances so far. &#8220;Very expensive toaster,&#8221; he quipped.
Musk also pointed to cases where the government allegedly kept making payments to contractors even after contracts were supposed to be canceled. &#8220;Someone forgot to shut off the contract, and the company just kept getting money,&#8221; he said. He asked the hosts if that was waste or fraud, to which they replied, &#8220;Both.&#8221;

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;Extreme Prosperity&#8217; or &#8216;Killer Robots&#8217;?</h2>
In the interview, Musk also touched on the future of artificial intelligence, predicting that within 10 years, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37641748/elon-musk-foresees-ai-surpassing-human-intelligence-by-next-year-entire-humanity-by-2029">AI will be smarter than any human</a>. He also estimated that 50% of all miles driven will be autonomous within five years, increasing to 90% within a decade.
When asked about &#8220;killer robots annihilating humanity,&#8221; Musk said there&#8217;s a 10% to 20% chance AI could pose an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41196355/ai-will-do-most-jobs-better-faster-cheaper-silicon-valley-billionaire-vinod-khosla-calls-for-uni">existential threat to humanity</a> within the next 10 years. But he also believes that AI and robotics will make goods and services nearly free, so people won't be lacking anything—they'll just have to figure out how to find meaning in life.
