As we all know, the market is a fickle mistress -- and I will be the first to admit, she has humiliated me with her indiscretion on many occasions. However, I'm happy to report that my pick of The J.M. Smucker Company (NYSE: SJM) as a "Cheap Stock" for 2009 has not completely blown up in my face (yet).
The peanut butter-based security jumped back on my radar today when I noticed that brokerage firm Janney Montgomery Scott started coverage of SJM with a Buy rating. Not too many analysts are currently following the shares; according to Zacks, the jam giant has garnered just two Strong Buys and one Hold. Any additional bullish initiations could help the stock extend its recent uptrend.
