Colgate Palmolive (CL) is facing a challenging year, particularly in the consumer staples sector. However, the company has recently demonstrated resilience by beating both top and bottom line expectations, suggesting a recovery in its performance. Additionally, improvements in its supply chain may further support its growth prospects. While the company is dealing with tariff costs that were originally projected at $200 million but have now reduced to $75 million, this represents a positive development. Investors are encouraged to consider buying the stock at its 52-week lows, especially with a dividend yield of approximately 2.5%, indicating potential for steady returns.
He is avoiding staples right now. They are trading very, very rich. This company has had a negative earnings revision and are really struggling in some of their core categories with pricing pressures and volume. Not a lot of positive things to say about this. He would be moving on to a different sector, on the view that we will be seeing higher rates. This is not a “Growth” story, it is a “how do we save the ship” story.
Probably one of the better staple companies. In July it had a big Venezuelan devaluation which resulted in a sharp drop in earnings. This was followed by the currency earnings drag. You are going to probably see some pullbacks and corrections in valuations, but longer-term this is a very good story if you have a multi-year view on the company.
A consumer brand business. The issue is that 80% of revenue is from outside of North America. 21 times earnings and a good dividend yield. Another issue is that they have good brand loyalty but they are known for their toothpaste. He would prefer they sold off Hills, the veterinary business. This company performs well over the long term so if you have a long time horizon then buy on a pull back. They increase dividends regularly.
