How Hormel Foods, Hershey, And Horace Mann Educators Can Put Cash In Your Pocket

Government health agencies are pushing forward an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/hhs-fda-phase-out-petroleum-based-synthetic-dyes-nations-food-supply" rel="noreferrer noopener">overhaul of food additive rules</a> to remove petroleum-based artificial dyes from products sold in the U.S.
The effort, revealed on Wednesday, falls under health secretary&nbsp;Robert F. Kennedy Jr's larger "Make America Healthy Again" plan, which seeks to boost national health by tightening dietary guidelines.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Department of Health and Human Services introduced a roadmap outlining the shift toward plant-based food colorings across the industry.

"For too long, some food producers have been feeding Americans petroleum-based chemicals without their knowledge or consent," said HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
"These poisonous compounds offer no nutritional benefit and pose real, measurable dangers to our children's health and development. That era is coming to an end.
As part of the plan, approvals for two synthetic dyes, Citrus Red No. 2 and Orange B, will be rescinded in the coming months.
Regulators are coordinating with manufacturers to eliminate six commonly used food colorings: FD&amp;C Red No. 40, FD&amp;C Yellow Nos. 5 and 6, FD&amp;C Green No. 3, and FD&amp;C Blue Nos. 1 and 2 by the end of next year.
The FDA also encouraged companies to retire FD&amp;C Red No. 3 ahead of the current 2027-2028 target. To support a seamless shift, the agency intends to authorize four new naturally derived color additives in the near future.
It is also speeding up the evaluation process for substitutes such as butterfly pea flower extract, Galdieria blue, gardenia blue, and calcium phosphate. In addition, updated regulatory guidelines are being developed to assist manufacturers in meeting the new requirements.
In collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the FDA will undertake a broad research effort to assess how food dyes influence children's development and well-being.

FDA Targets Synthetic Food Dyes In Sweeping Nutrition Overhaul

Price Target

B of A Securities Upgrades Hormel Foods to Neutral, Raises Price Target to $35

BofA Securities analysts Bryan D. Spillane, Lisa K. Lewandowski and Peter T. Galbo have put forward on Tuesday their research findings on consumer staple companies in the face of a potential recession.
The analysts said consumer staples have historically outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in most recent recessions, suggesting a defensive edge.
However, the analysts warned that current conditions, such as lingering high prices and weak volume growth, may limit their resilience in a future downturn.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44695622/amazon-touts-ai-milestone-says-new-model-outshines-gpt-4o-in-real-time-speech" rel="noreferrer noopener">Amazon Touts AI Milestone, Says New Model Outshines GPT-4o In Real-Time Speech</a>
Still, their limited exposure to new tariffs could make the sector more appealing than others, potentially helping sustain valuation multiples.
During recessions, the Consumer Staples sector stock prices are primarily influenced by earnings per share (EPS) rather than sales growth.
Analysis shows that forward EPS estimates account for over 90% of stock price movement across key subsectors like Beverages, Household &amp; Personal Care (HPC), Packaged Food, and Tobacco, with the correlation being the tightest Beverages and HPC.
The analysts noted that this highlights the critical importance of earnings strength when evaluating stock performance in uncertain economic conditions.
A review of six past recessions reveals that certain Consumer Staples stocks consistently outperformed the S&amp;P 500.
Campbell Soup Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPB#NYSE">CPB</a>), Colgate-Palmolive Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CL#NYSE">CL</a>), General Mills Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GIS#NYSE">GIS</a>), McCormick &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MKC#NYSE">MKC</a>), PepsiCo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>), and Hormel Foods Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HRL#NYSE">HRL</a>) each posted a 100% success rate in outperforming the index during those downturns.
In the last four recessions with the most comprehensive data, McCormick, General Mills, and Church &amp; Dwight Co. Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHD#NYSE">CHD</a>) delivered the strongest relative performance.
Top-performing Consumer Staples stocks in a potential downturn will likely share three traits: profit flexibility to offset revenue pressure and rising costs, strong U.S. manufacturing presence to limit tariff-related inflation, and solid balance sheets capable of sustaining share buybacks to boost earnings per share.
Analysts see McCormick, Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) and Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PM#NYSE">PM</a>) as well-defended, with Keurig Dr Pepper Inc.

Insights From Analysts
&#8220;This is still a bull market and this seasonal weakness doesn't have us overly concerned yet,&#8221; said Ryan Detrick, the chief market strategist at Carson Group in his note titled &#8216;That Escalated Quickly&#8217;.
He also highlighted a list of reasons substantiating the reasons for stocks to be back at new highs.
<ul>
<li>Strong earnings, revenue, and profit margins.</li>
<li>Market resilience amidst widespread concerns.</li>
<li>A relatively young bull market with potential for further growth. A robust labor market with healthy wages.</li>
<li>Anticipated inflation improvement and potential Fed rate cuts.</li>
<li>Strong U.S. productivity driving economic growth.</li>
<li>Broadening market participation beyond just tech stocks.</li>
</ul>
Similarly, the analysts at BlackRock said, &#8220;We still think U.S. equities can outperform in 2025, led by tech, even as Europe's start the year strong.&#8221;
However, they said that they would broaden the risk-on view, upgrading Europe stocks.
BlackRock&#8217;s note highlighted that the U.S. could still reclaim leadership this year and that is why they were overweight U.S. stocks. The corporate earnings strength and the artificial intelligence theme aided their belief. But the note stated, &#8220;We turn more underweight long-term U.S. Treasuries&#8221;

뱅크오브아메리카 증권(BofA Securities) 애널리스트인 브라이언 D. 스필레인(Bryan D. Spillane), 리사 K. 르완도프스키(Lisa K. Lewandowski), 피터 T. 갈보(Peter T. Galbo)는 화요일(8일) 잠재적인 경기침체를 대비한 필수소비재 기업에 대한 연구 결과를 발표했다.
애널리스트들은 최근 경기 침체기에 필수소비재 주식이 역사적으로 S&amp;P 500 시장수익률 상회를 기록해 방어적 우위를 보였다고 말했다. 그러나 고물가 지속과 낮은 물량 증가율 등 현재 상황이 향후 경기 침체 시 회복력을 제한할 수 있다고 경고했다.
그럼에도 불구하고 새로운 관세에 대한 노출이 제한적이기 때문에 다른 업종보다 매력적일 수 있으며, 잠재적으로 밸류에이션 배수를 유지하는 데 도움이 될 수 있다.
경기 침체기에 필수소비재 섹터의 주가는 매출 성장보다는 주당순이익(EPS)에 주로 영향을 받는다.
분석에 따르면 음료, 가정용품 및 개인용품(HPC), 포장식품, 담배와 같은 주요 하위 섹터에서 주당순이익 추정치가 주가 움직임의 90% 이상을 차지하며, 음료와 HPC의 상관관계가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다.
이는 불확실한 경제 상황에서 주식 성과를 평가할 때 실적 강세가 매우 중요하다는 점을 강조한다고 지적했다.
과거 6차례 경기 침체기를 검토한 결과 특정 필수소비재 주식이 지속적으로 S&amp;P 500 시장수익률 상회한 것으로 나타났다.
캠벨 수프(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPB#NYSE">CPB</a>), 콜게이트 팜올리브(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CL#NYSE">CL</a>), 제너럴 밀스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GIS#NYSE">GIS</a>), 맥코믹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MKC#NYSE">MKC</a>), 펩시코(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>), 그리고 호멜 푸드(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HRL#NYSE">HRL</a>)는 모두 이러한 하강기 동안 지수를 초과 성과를 거둔 100%의 성공률을 기록했다.
가장 포괄적인 데이터가 있는 최근 4차례 경기 침체에서 맥코믹, 제너럴 밀스, 그리고 처치 앤 드와이트(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHD#NYSE">CHD</a>)가 상대적으로 가장 강한 성과를 냈다.
잠재적 경기 침체기에 실적이 우수한 필수소비재 주식은 매출 압박과 비용 상승을 상쇄할 수 있는 수익 유연성, 관세 관련 인플레이션을 제한하는 강력한 미국 제조업 입지, 주당 순이익을 높이기 위해 자사주 매입을 지속할 수 있는 견고한 대차대조표라는 세 가지 특징을 공유할 가능성이 높다.
애널리스트들은 맥코믹, 코카콜라(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>), 그리고 필립 모리스 인터내셔널(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PM#NYSE">PM</a>)을 좋은 방어주로 보며, 큐리그 닥터페퍼(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KDP#NASDAQ">KDP</a>), 몰슨 쿠어스 베버리지(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAP#NYSE">TAP</a>), 그리고 알트리아(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MO#NYSE">MO</a>)를 잠재적으로 시장 초과 성과를 낼 수 있는 다음 그룹으로 보았다.

화요일 미국 증시는 혼조세를 보였으며, S&amp;P 500 지수는 세션 중 사상 최고치를 기록했다. 애플(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) 주가가 화요일에 새로운 52주 최고가로 급등한 반면, 지스케일러(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZS#NASDAQ">ZS</a>)의 주가는 1분기 실적 발표 후 약 4.7% 하락했다.
경제지표 측면에서는, 10월의 구인 건수가 9월의 737만 2천 건에서 37만 2,000건 증가한 774만 4천 건을 기록했다. 시장 예상치 748만 건보다 높은 수치를 기록했다.
S&amp;P 500 지수 대부분의 섹터는 하락했고 특히 공공 서비스, 산업재, 금융 섹터가 가장 큰 손실을 기록했다. 그러나 통신 서비스와 정보 기술 섹터는 전체 시장의 추세와 다르게 상승했다.

<h3>CNN 비즈니스 공포·탐욕 지수란?</h3>
공포·탐욕 지수는 현재 62.3으로 화요일 &#8220;탐욕&#8221; 영역에 머물렀고 이전 수치 62.4에서 소폭 하락했다.
공포·탐욕 지수는 현재 시장 심리를 측정하는 지표다. 공포가 높을수록 주가에 압력을 가하고, 탐욕이 높을수록 주가를 상승시킨다는 전제를 바탕으로 한다. 이 지수는 동일한 가중치를 가진 7가지 지표를 기준으로 계산된다. 지수의 범위는 0에서 100까지이며 0은 최대 공포를, 100은 최대 탐욕을 나타낸다.
