RBGPF Stock Recent News

President Trump's “Liberation Day” announcement rattled the market, leaving only few stocks in the green. The likelihood of a stagflationary environment and recession has increased significantly. Even though the intent of the tariffs seems clear, we can expect significant pain in the short term (and possibly longer term). In this article, I take a look at four sub-segments of the consumer staples sector and explore whether relevant stocks should be considered as portfolio hedges in the current environment.

Human vices like alcohol, tobacco, and sex persist; companies in these industries remain profitable and offer attractive dividends despite societal disapproval. The tobacco industry is in slow decline but still profitable; British American Tobacco, Altria, and Philip Morris offer high dividends and are transitioning to less harmful products.

Reckitt Benckiser Group PLC has upped its dividend after a drop in profit last year as efforts continued to revamp the consumer goods business. Operating profit fell 4.2% to £2.43 billion in the year to December 31, as revenue slipped 3.0% to £14.17 billion on an international financial reporting standards basis.

Reckitt has shown a medium-term uptrend since April 2024, outperforming peers, but litigation risks from Mead Johnson remain substantial, making the stock a hold. Reckitt's strategic focus on high-growth, high-margin brands and potential divestitures could drive future revenue and earnings growth, despite current sales declines. The company's dividend history is strong, with a 22-year streak of no cuts, but future increases are likely modest due to a high payout ratio.
