Yeah I have been adding too. Sub 4000 seems a good price to me for a solid defensive play with a decent divi too.

Good luck all 👍🏻

Unilever shines in market pessimism, says Allianz’s Knight


Unilever (ULVR) is a ‘fine company’ that presents a ‘wonderfulR17; opportunity in times of market pessimism, says Allianz Global Investors manager Richard Knight.

‘Unilever is a notable case of a fine company with an excellent track record that can occasionally represent a wonderful investment opportunity when the market shows an excess of pessimism,’ he said.

While he said the group was ‘relatively slow moving’ it has a large mix of products and operates in many markets in ‘defensive categories’. Knight holds the Citywire Elite Companies AAA-rated consumer giant in his £214m Allianz UK Listed Opportunities fund.

‘We judge the intrinsic value of the business as relatively high and growing, but nowhere near as volatile as the share price, which has both depreciated and appreciated by more than 30% over the last three years,’ he said.

‘When good companies fall out of favour there can often be compelling opportunities, and we believe we have realised the bulk of such an opportunity with Unilever, with the shares now trading much closer to fair value.’

The shares gained 1.4%, or 54p to £40.21 on Thursday.

Unilever PLC on Wednesday said it has acquired a US frozen yoghurt producer for an undisclosed sum.

The deal to buy Yasso Holdings Inc aligns with the firm’s ‘premiumisation strategy of Unilever’s Ice Cream Business Group’. Yasso will sit alongside Unilever’s portfolio of brands including Ben & Jerry’s and Magnum.

‘Yasso’s products respond to growing demand in North America for on-the-go, healthier and indulgent frozen snacks. The products in the current Yasso range each contain less than 150 calories,’ the consumer goods firm explained.

Yasso was founded in Boston by childhood friends Amanda Klane and Drew Harrington.

Yasso Chief Executive Craig Shiesley said: ‘We are excited to join Unilever and become part of the world renowned family of Ice Cream and Novelties brands. I’m proud of our company growth and we look forward to working with Unilever to expand the global footprint of our incredible brand.’

The deal is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023.

£30 to £35 would be a gift I would love to see. Would be a takeover target at that level.It's not just about yield here. You do need to factor in overall valuation and growth prospects, particularly from emerging markets.

Or increase the divi rather than buying back
