Home Depot, PepsiCo, Progressive, CocaCola, and AutoZone are the five Water stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Water stocks are shares of publicly traded companies whose primary business involves supplying, treating, transporting or managing water resources. Investors buy these stocks to gain exposure to the water sector’s infrastructure, technology and services—ranging from utility operations and wastewater treatment to irrigation systems and desalination plants. Because water is an essential and increasingly scarce resource, water stocks are often viewed as a defensive or “sustainable” investment theme. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Water stocks within the last several days.
