- Wednesday, January 23, 9:43 AM A strong quarter put in by Unilever (UL +2.8%) serves as a reminder that a consumer staples company (XLP) can grow prices and volume in tandem with the right focus on categories and geography, notes retail analyst Rahul Sharma. Will Colgate-Palmolive (CL +0.1%) and Procter & Gamble (PG) execute as well as their peer? Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, January 17, 3:40 PM Procter & Gamble (PG +0.7%) plans to cut 150 jobs in Spain and Portugal after integrating hygiene company Arbora & Ausonia into the fold.

[Consumer]
- Wednesday, January 9, 10:34 AM Interesting retail twist: Procter & Gamble's (PG +0.8%) move to appoint Macy's (M -0.4%) CEO Terry Lundgren to its board seems innocuous enough until it's factored in that the exec heads one of Bill Ackman's primary rivals of his J.C. Penney adventure (misadventure?). Macy's is in the middle of a legal battle over the use of Martha Stewart shops at JCP stores and is a beneficiary of the sales meltdown at the retailer. The issue is intriguing, but could be on Ackman's back burner for the moment with Herbalife finding new life. Comment! [Consumer]

- Friday, January 4, 11:25 AM Omega Advisors' Leon Cooperman is no fan of consumer staples stocks as his hedge fund moves to short Procter & Gamble (PG +0.1%), Unilever (UL -0.1%), and Nestle (NSRGY.PK) in the new year. The investor says he isn't convinced by the margins and growth of the group. If he's right on his call, the Consumer Staples Select Sector ETF (XLP) also looks dicey. 8 Comments [Consumer, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, December 26, 2012, 1:48 PM Inter Parfums (IPAR +4.5%) trades up after inking an exclusive, worldwide 10-year license deal to create and distribute perfumes and related products under the Alfred Dunhill brand, which focuses on luxury goods for men.

- Friday, December 7, 2012, 11:06 AM Procter & Gamble (PG +0.7%) gets taken to task in a piece in Fast Company over its "muddled" marketing message and lack of focus on some key brands. The question is asked on how many products can come under one brand name before the consumer becomes confused, overwhelmed, and stressed? According to the writers, the path to profits for P&G is through a simplified course of "one concept, one message" per category. 2 Comments [Consumer]

India is highlighted as a particular focus for growth. 2) P&G plans to target non-manufacturing enrollment reduction of 5.7K positions by the end of FY13. 3) The company increases its outlook for FY13 share repurchases to $6B from $4B. 4) Net sales, organic sales, and EPS guidance for FY13 all confirmed at previous levels.

- Wednesday, November 14, 2012, 2:16 PM Procter & Gamble (PG -0.4%) CEO Bob McDonald is one of 20 execs invited to the White House today for a discussion with President Obama on how to address debt issues. While the fiscal cliff is the hot topic of the day, an underlying issue for P&G is pushing for corporate tax reform that could help it find an incentive to repatriate $39B in undistributed foreign earnings that could be used for dividends or share buybacks. 3 Comments [Consumer]
- Tuesday, November 13, 2012, 10:43 AM Consumer staple bellwether? Procter & Gamble (PG +0.5%) holds its Analyst Meeting this week with a sharp focus on if the company can pull a rabbit out of its hat in Q4. After relying on higher prices to offset dips in volume in key categories, execs tipped product innovation and emerging markets to lead the company out of the 1%-4% growth doldrums. For P&G to pull it off, it will have to buck an overall consumer staples trend that looks sluggish globally. PG watching: The Consumer Staples Select Sector ETF (XLP +0.3%) with 13.67% of its assets in the stock, VDC, FXG, IYK, PSL, UGE, SZK. Comment! [Consumer]
