| DON'T BUY | 73.950 | David Driscoll | Pricey right now. Want to buy it $5 lower. | 2007-10-25 | |
| BUY | 72.130 | Ross Healey | Lots of upside. Lots of international exposure. Nice, conservative company. His Fair Market Value is over $100, but he doesn't expect it to reach this. | 2007-10-05 | |
| BUY | 71.720 | David Burrows | Roughly 70% of sales are outside of North America. Not economically sensitive. Market is paying higher multiples for steady growth. They have a wonderful product portfolio. | 2007-10-04 | |
| BUY | 72.310 | Norman Levine | You get worldwide demand in consumer staple products. They have leading brands. | 2007-10-02 | |
| TOP PICK | 66.690 | Alan Kral | This is a pretty difficult environment and this tends to be a very defensive stock. Will benefit from a variety of things including rapidly rising growth in emerging markets. Also has a large exposure in Europe, which is doing better than the US. If US$ | 2007-09-10 | |
| HOLD | 66.210 | Charles Lannon | Is fully valued at current levels. Something like 20 times current earnings.
| 2007-06-07 | |
| BUY | 66.940 | Gavin Graham | 2% dividend yield. A defensive holding. Has a lot of overseas operations, so is a hedge against a weaker US$. Have pricing power. | 2007-03-26 | |
| BUY | 65.710 | David Burrows | With less concern about inflation and less concern about rising rates and a little weaker economy, money is looking for these more stable earning stocks. Expect to see an increase in the price/earnings multiple over the next year. Not a ton of risk and a great core holding. | 2007-01-08 | |
| SELL | 59.450 | David Driscoll | Their branding has started to slow down. Proctor and Gamble (PG-N) has been eating their lunch in the US and overseas. | 2006-07-26 | |
| WATCH | 62.090 | Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA | More of a defensive stock. Has done well in down markets. Technical structure is really strong. Suspects when the overall market makes a bit of a bottom, investors could be taking profits. | 2006-07-24 | |
| DON'T BUY | 59.490 | Brian Acker, CA | Probably a good defensive play, but he looks for mispriced assets. This would not qualify for his portfolio. Has a model price of $44 which is a negative 26/27% differential. | 2006-05-10 | |
| HOLD | 59.380 | Bill Carrigan | There is an uptrend in place. Likes US stocks at the moment. This is a place you want to be. | 2006-05-02 | |
| BUY | 59.440 | Norman Levine | One of the typical US big cap stocks that have gone nowhere in five years. With the US going down, and the majority of their earnings being outside of the US this stock will be a good place to go. | 2006-04-27 | |
| STRONG BUY | 54.490 | James Cole, BA, CFA | Has grown their earnings, book values and dividends consistently but the stock has done little if anything. The result is a low P/E in the high teens. This has created an opportunity. You could get high single digit growth and a couple of points more with dividend growth. | 2006-01-17 | |
| DON'T BUY | 55.470 | Paul Harris, CFA | The biggest buyer of all their products is people like Wal-Mart (WMT-N) and they've put a lot of pricing pressure on them. Overall, what he doesn't like about the consumer product sector, is the pricing pressure. | 2006-01-09 | |
| DON'T BUY | 49.610 | Danny Tomka | On a short term basis, would prefer Procter and Gamble (PG-N). Earnings have been coming down on Colgate. This year earnings will grow about 8/9% and probably better next year. | 2005-06-02 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 45.990 | Rob Callander | (A Past Top pick Sept 23/04. Up 2%.) Bought when it was down from short term selling. Should do well long term. | 2004-11-30 | |
| DON'T BUY | 46.380 | Gavin Graham | Getting squeezed. Costs of their packaging is rising. A leader in its sector. Pretty cheap. Investors have made no money on Unilever, Colgate or Proctor & Gamble over the last 5 years. | 2004-11-08 | |
| DON'T BUY | 45.380 | Brian Acker, CA | Too pricey to buy. | 2004-10-26 | |
| BUY | 43.350 | David Baskin | Probably a good time to buy. Will benefit from the weak US$ as they have a large % of their sales outside of US. Were oversold wnen they missed their quarter. Tremendously strong company. | 2004-10-12 | |
| WAIT | 45.330 | Norman Levine | Procter & Gamble is on a tear now and is hurting all its competitors. Retaining market share, but it's costing them a lot more money. Stock looks vulnerable and the multiple looks vulnerable. Wait for the stock to stop dropping. | 2004-09-28 | |
| TOP PICK | 45.960 | Rob Callander | Have had steady growth. Amazing company. | 2004-09-23 | |
| TOP PICK | 57.880 | Mary Farrell | Household and personal products, people buy them in good times and bad. Double-digit growth is expected. | 2004-04-30 | |
| BUY | 54.300 | Steven Wippersteg | Solid mngmnt. Recession proof. Buy for the long term. | 2001-08-30 | |
| BUY | 58.860 | Noah Blackstein, B.A., CFA | Prefers this over Proctor & Gamble | 2001-01-08 | |
