This summary was created by AI, based on 6 opinions in the last 12 months.

Diageo PLC is currently facing significant challenges reflecting a shift in consumer behavior, particularly among younger generations who are drinking less. The company's recent performance has prompted a drastic cut to its dividend, with some experts pointing to an erosion of brand strength and high inflation affecting consumer spending. While a few analysts believe there could be a potential turnaround due to a new CEO and a focus on premium brands, the overall consensus leans towards caution. The contentious market dynamics, including cannabis competition and legal issues surrounding specific product lines, further complicate its outlook. Experts recommend keeping a close watch on the stock, suggesting that despite its current premium brand positioning, the company may need to reevaluate its pricing strategies.

(A Top Pick April 30/08. Down 34.69%.) Has exposure to both top brands and lower brands. Margins are less on lower brands. Parent company is in England and trades in pounds sterling, which has affected the share price. Cash machine. Good long-term hold. 3.2% yield.

Bought brands from Seagram’s. We drink in good times and in bad. Strong discipline on cost reductions and share money with shareholders and increased dividends. Some of their brands are the cheaper ones if you move down to cheaper brands.

(A Top Pick Aug 25/08. Down 41.6%.) (He hedged on the sterling, so only down 25%.) The key is to buy these names in their native exchange and to hedge out the rest. Will recover with the market.

Alcohol. Surprisingly it has come down 36%. 5.5% dividend so you get paid to wait. Probably a fairly safe place to stay on a relative basis. Good balance sheet.

(A Top Pick Aug 25/08. Down 28%.) Actually outperformed the S&P 500 by 32%. 6% yield. He holds it in British £ and hedged it back to Cdn $’s so has been a pretty good performer for him.

(A Top Pick Aug 25/08. Down 14%.) Still adding to his position. Market is down 30% plus and this is only down 14%. Dividend yield is secure and strong. A great China play. The one commodity that you have to love in a downturn is alcohol.

A weaker performer in the group, partly because of currency conversion. It is the type of business that should perform well in this environment.

Worlds biggest alcoholic drink company. Strong positing. Lots free cash flow, grows dividends steadily (6-7%/year), very stable business. Stock a bit weak because of concerns about switch people may make to lower brands. Growing demand in China, Africa, and Asia. Excellent balance sheet, no debt.

(Top Pick Aug 25/2008, Down 6%) Good play on international growth. Stable cash flow and wonderful yield. Thinks dividends will grow. Can’t find a better commodity than alcohol when the middle class is growing, such as in China and India.

COMMENT

Diageo PLC(DEO)

Aug 27, 2008
Surprised that the alcohol/average stocks have not done better. Input costs have been high with a grain going up. Long-term this is a defensive stock but probably without a lot of massive growth.

4.3% yield is getting very attractive. Trading near its lows because it is a consumer's discretionary and people are starting to cut back. Starting to show very good guy you at these levels.

World's biggest liquor company. Very investor friendly. Pays most of its money in dividend or does share buybacks. Stock hasn't been acting well lately but thinks it is just because of the UK market itself.
