The consumer product monster has increased debt lately, but analysts feel comfortable with the low debt to earnings ratio. This is allowing the company to continue growing cash reserves. It trades at 24x earnings and supports a 20% ROE. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $133 looking to achieve $174 -- upside potential of 19%. Yield 3.3%
(Analysts’ price target is $174.28)
