Dollar General (NYSE: DG) and Tractor Supply (NASDAQ: TSCO) have outperformed many of their retailing peers over the past year. Sales trends held up well despite slowing economic growth, and profit margins remained strong. While both companies are winning market share, Tractor Supply comes out ahead on growth.
Discount retailer Dollar General (NYSE: DG) is what some might call a boring business. Not only could this continue, but Dollar General could be one of the best stocks to hold in your portfolio during a recession, something 6-in-10 economists believe could happen in the next year. It turns out that the company's Dollar General brand is quite misleading when you look at the company's financials.
Investors should look at similar companies from a customer's point of view to figure out which one's the better bet.
