The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE:PG) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer talked about. During the episode, Cramer noted that it is one of the few consumer packaged goods companies that “doesn’t have a GLP-1 problem,” as he said:
“I can go over how NVIDIA or Broadcom are down huge too much, and they’re way, way from their highs, but well, then again, I’ve been recommending them consistently for club members, so there’s no real revelation there. So let me give you another one that’s on my radar screen that might intrigue you, one that is hated, despised, one that I wrote up in How to Make Money in Any Market as a tremendous company, that’s become a complicated, unloved stock because it’s not tech and it doesn’t have great growth right now. I’m talking about Procter & Gamble. The Cincinnati colossus has seen its stock tumble remarkably from $180 in March to $138 today. This is P&G. It doesn’t usually have that kind of move. It’s a dividend aristocrat. Some people call it a dividend king because it’s increased its payout for 69 consecutive years. You’re now getting the stock with a 3% yield. I’m not calling the bottom, but it does have a new CEO. It has the opportunity to shake things up.
Procter’s already pre-announced a nasty quarter, and it’s one of the few consumer package goods companies that doesn’t have a GLP-1 problem. I got no illusions. I don’t think it will necessarily stop at 3%. That’s not that high a yield. Many of the packaged goods companies… 4, 5, 6%. Those are mostly food-related. How do you approach it? Okay, let’s say you want to buy 100 shares tomorrow, don’t. Only buy 25 shares. Then you wait for it to fall to another level… and then you buy another 25. It gets down low to say, 4%, be extremely, that would be a big, big move… big dividend yield. Well, then you can have 50 shares. You have a very nice-size position slowly but surely, not at one price. Okay, it’s not CrowdStrike. It’s not Microsoft. It’s not Broadcom. It’s not NVIDIA. But you can’t just have all tech.”
