Read MoreHide Full Article

There was certainly a knee-jerk reaction post-COVID that sent money away from airlines and hotels, towards more isolated recreational activities. There was a huge boom for companies selling things like RVs, boats and cars. This trend has continued on in the last several months. Investors are now beginning to see this could be one of the best areas of the market to invest in over the intermediate term.

One of these stocks is today’s Bull of the Day, Winnebago Industries (WGO - Free Report) . Winnebago Industries, Inc. manufactures and sells recreation vehicles and marine products primarily for use in leisure travel and outdoor recreation activities. The company operates in six segments: Grand Design Towables, Winnebago Towables, Winnebago Motorhomes, Newmar motorhomes, Chris-Craft Marine, and Winnebago Specialty Vehicles. It provides towable products that are non-motorized vehicles to be towed by automobiles, pickup trucks, SUVs, or vans for use as temporary living quarters for recreational travel, such as conventional travel trailers, fifth wheels, folding camper trailers, and truck campers under the Winnebago and Grand Design brand names.
