The Vanguard Consumer Staples ETF (NYSEMKT:VDC) offers lower costs and market-cap-weighted stability, while the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Consumer Staples ETF (NYSEMKT:RSPS) may appeal to those seeking broader diversification across smaller sector players.

Rivian also plans to begin production of additional affordable vehicles -- the R3 and R3X -- either this or next year, aiding sales growth even more. Shares could be a buy based on this growth catalyst alone. But there's one other growth catalyst that may catch analysts by surprise: the upcoming SpaceX IPO . Continue reading
