Charles Schwab: Consumer Staples Sell-Off Overdone
Consumer staples stocks have been one of the worst performing sectors among the S&P 500 industries for more than a year now, but that sell-off in the makers of everything from ketchup to sunblock may be overdone, at least according to Brad Sorensen, head of market and sector analysis for Charles Schwab's Schwab Center for Financial Research. In a recent blog post, the analyst at The Charles Schwab Corporation ( SCHW) said that, while stocks in the sector have been getting beaten up over competition and concerns that rising costs could hurt margins, fears may be unwarranted. After all, when it comes to the retail sector, the one competitor that everyone is worried about is Amazon.com, Inc. ( AMZN).

[$$] Hot Hedge Fund Firm Bets Big on Transocean, Intel
American master of the horror tale H.P. Lovecraft once wrote, “The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.” Surely that applies to spooking readers. “The trick is being able to identify those things that everybody else is fearful of and turn it around,” says Andrew Clifford, Platinum Investment Management’s chief investment officer, in a video on the Australian hedge fund’s site. Platinum says its investment style is seeking out companies “whose true worth and prospects are yet to be fully recognised by the market.” For example, Platinum was buying shares of offshore drilling contractor Transocean (RIG) in the first quarter when the outlook for energy was weak.

As for the top three holdings in the XLP, Coca Cola is down 7.6%, PepsiCo is down 16.2%, and Procter & Gamble is down 19.3%. Far from being a warning sign that there’s something wrong with consumer staples, this “universal carnage is leaving opportunities,” according to CEO Jenny Van Leeuwen Harrington of Gilman Hill Asset Management.

[$$] Why Coke, PepsiCo, and P&G Look Like Bargains
Procter & Gamble (PG), for one, has boosted its payout for 62 straight years. Beverage firms, he says, have “superior pricing power” that’s “driven by greater channel diversity, less fragmented categories from a competitive standpoint, and lower private-label penetration.” And, he contends, “Large retailers are less likely to push beverage companies around as much.” Still, investors certainly have pushed Coca-Cola (KO) and PepsiCo (PEP) around, pummeling their stocks by 8% and 18% this year, respectively. PepsiCo is expected to increase earnings next year in the high-single-digit range, to $6.11, from an estimated $5.70 this year.
