Kraft Heinz

In July 2015, Kraft merged with Heinz to create the third-largest food and beverage manufacturer in North America behind wide-moats PepsiCo and Nestle and the fifth-largest player in the world. Beyond its namesake brands, the combined firm's portfolio includes Oscar Mayer, Velveeta, and Philadelphia. While the retail channel drives around 85% of its total sales, the firm also maintains a growing presence in the foodservice arena. Outside North America, Kraft Heinz's global reach counts a distribution network in Europe and emerging markets that drives about 25% of its consolidated sales base, as its products are sold in more than 190 countries and territories.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Powell Speaks The Truth</h3>
Please <a href="https://thearorareport.com/chart-analysis-stock-powell-speech-trump-appointments-spy-mc-11152024">click here</a> for an enlarged chart of SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) which represents the benchmark stock market index S&amp;P 500 (SPX).
Note the following:
<ul>
<li>It is worth a reminder that The Arora Report is politically agnostic.&nbsp; Our sole job is to help our members extract the maximum amount of money out of the markets with the least possible risk.</li>
<li>The price action on the chart shows that the rip roaring Trump rally is taking a breather.</li>
<li>The chart shows that the stock market is still above the breakout line.</li>
<li>RSI on the chart shows that the stock market has pulled back, reflecting a loss of momentum. The stock market is still overbought.</li>
<li>The chart shows that the volume remains low.&nbsp; This indicates that institutional investors are not rushing to buy stocks.</li>
<li>Yesterday, Powell spoke that truth – the market did not like it.&nbsp; Powell said, "The economy is not sending any signals that we need to be in a hurry to lower rates."&nbsp; Powell elaborated, "The strength we are currently seeing in the economy gives us the ability to approach our decisions carefully."</li>
<li>Powell's remarks brought some selling into stocks and bonds.</li>
<li>This morning, in the early trade, selling continues.</li>
<li>The reason for some selling is that the prevailing wisdom on Wall Street has been that another rate cut in December was a sure thing.&nbsp; The Arora Report has been questioning Wall Street's wisdom and sharing with you that the data does not support another rate cut.</li>
<li>Some conservative commentators are upset believing that the reason Powell started rate cuts with a 50 bps cut was to help Kamala Harris get elected.&nbsp; Now that Trump has been elected, Powell is in no hurry to cut rates.</li>
<li>In The Arora Report analysis, even though the data does not support a rate cut in December, Powell is going to feel pressure from Trump and Republicans to cut rates.&nbsp; There is also a significant amount of data between now and the December Fed meeting.</li>
<li>In The Arora Report analysis, based on a 360 degree view, including the political pressure and the pressure from Wall Street to cut rates, the probability of a rate cut in December is now about 60%.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>There is consternation about several Trump picks.&nbsp; Impacting the market most are Trump's picks of RKF Jr, Matt Gaetz, and Pete Hegseth.&nbsp; These picks are bringing selling in vaccine makers such as Moderna Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRNA#NASDAQ">MRNA</a>), BioNTech SE ADR (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BNTX#NASDAQ">BNTX</a>), Novavax Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVAX#NASDAQ">NVAX</a>), Merck &amp; Co Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRK#NYSE">MRK</a>), and Pfizer Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>).&nbsp; There is also selling in other healthcare stocks, including weight loss drug companies Eli Lilly And Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) and Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>), and packaged food stocks such as The Kraft Heinz Co (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NASDAQ">KHC</a>).&nbsp; There is also selling in defense stocks such as Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>), Northrop Grumman Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>), and Rtx Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>).&nbsp; There is also selling in big tech stocks.</li>
<li>The latest economic data is strong.&nbsp; The U.S. economy is about 70% consumer based.&nbsp; For this reason, prudent investors pay attention to retail sales.&nbsp; Here are the details of the just released data:
<ul>
<li>Retail sales came at 0.4% vs. 0.3% consensus.</li>
<li>Retail sales ex-auto came at 0.1% vs. 0.2% consensus.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>There are hundreds of indicators.&nbsp; At The Arora Report, the system has been refined through decades of research to share with you only those indicators that matter.&nbsp; Normally, we do not mention the NY Fed Empire State Manufacturing Index.&nbsp; Today, we are mentioning it due to its exceptional strength.&nbsp; The index came at 31.2 vs. 3.3 consensus.&nbsp; This indicates that manufacturing in the New York area has picked up steam. &nbsp; If similar strength is happening in the rest of the country, that would argue against further cutting interest rates. The problem for investors is that stock valuations are so high that to sustain them, rate cuts are needed.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h3>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.&nbsp; The proprietary protection band from The Arora Report is very popular.&nbsp; The protection band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h3>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
The Arora Report is known for its accurate calls. The Arora Report correctly called the big artificial intelligence rally before anyone else, the new bull market of 2023, the bear market of 2022, new stock market highs right after the virus low in 2020, the virus drop in 2020, the DJIA rally to 30,000 when it was trading at 16,000, the start of a mega bull market in 2009, and the financial crash of 2008.

Shares of beverage and packaged food stocks are trading lower after president-elect Trump indicated he would nominate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the HHS.

Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NASDAQ">KHC</a>) shares remained relatively flat in premarket trading on Friday following a legal setback and the discontinuation of its reworked <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lunchables meals for U.S. schools</a>.
A federal judge recently ruled that Kraft Heinz must face a proposed nationwide class action lawsuit over its Kraft Mac &amp; Cheese product, Reuters reports.
The lawsuit, filed by consumers in Illinois, California, and New York, alleges that the company misled customers by claiming its iconic macaroni and cheese contains &#8220;No Artificial Flavors, Preservatives or Dyes.&#8221;
The plaintiffs argue that the product contains synthetic citric acid, which differs from the natural variety, as well as sodium phosphates, both of which function as preservatives.
U.S. District Judge Mary Rowland found the claims credible, pointing to academic studies and FDA guidelines that support the plaintiffs&#8217; allegations, Reuters added.
If the lawsuit proceeds, it could lead to changes in labeling practices or potential penalties for the company.

This legal challenge follows Kraft Heinz&#8217;s recent decision to discontinue a new version of Lunchables designed to meet school nutrition standards. Introduced for the 2023-2024 school year, these meals were criticized by nutritionists and advocacy groups for high sodium content, despite efforts to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/41929545/lunchables-meals-discontinued-by-kraft-heinz-amid-low-sales-and-health-concerns">reduce saturated fat and sodium.</a>
Kraft Heinz cited low demand for the product, which accounted for less than 1% of overall Lunchables sales.
As Kraft Heinz navigates these controversies, its ability to address growing consumer concerns about product transparency and health impacts might be closely watched.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>, KHC stock has lost over 5% in the past year. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via First Trust Nasdaq Food &amp; Beverage ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTXG#NASDAQ">FTXG</a>).
Price Action: KHC shares are trading higher by 0.16% to $31.79 premarket at last check Friday.

Kraft Heinz's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NYSE">KHC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 3.77% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 33.76 million shares sold short, which is 3.83% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 6.52 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Kraft Heinz has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Kraft Heinz's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Kraft Heinz's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.86%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Looking Into Kraft Heinz's Recent Short Interest

On Saturday, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) registered a decline in <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241102654212/en/Berkshire-Hathaway-Inc.-News-Release" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">third-quarter</a> operating earnings, driven by weakness in the insurance underwriting segment.
The Omaha-based company&#8217;s quarterly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.berkshirehathaway.com/qtrly/3rdqtr24.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">operating earnings</a> of $10.09 billion slumped over 6% from $10.761 billion in the year-ago quarter.
Approximately 70% of the aggregate fair value was concentrated in five companies, as of September-end 2024:
<ul>
<li>American Express Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>) &nbsp;&#8211; $41.1 billion</li>
<li>Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>)&nbsp;&#8211; $69.9 billion</li>

<li>Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>)&nbsp;&#8211; $28.7 billion&nbsp;</li>
<li>Chevron Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) &#8211; $17.5 billion</li>
</ul>
It seems <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/warren-buffett">Warren Buffett</a> has vended another considerable slice of his Apple stake, continuing to reduce Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s most significant equity investment for the fourth consecutive quarter.
Despite the ongoing selling spree, Berkshire did not buy back any company shares during the period.
Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s cash reserves soared to a record $325.2 billion as of September-end, increasing from $276.9 billion in the second quarter, as Warren Buffett continued selling stocks, per a <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/02/berkshire-hathaways-cash-fortress-tops-300-billion-as-buffett-sells-more-stock-freezes-buybacks.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">news</a> report from CNBC.

This suggests that Buffett sold roughly a quarter of his stake, leaving around 300 million shares in his holdings. Overall, CNBC <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/02/berkshire-hathaway-brk-earnings-q3-2024.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> that his stake has decreased by 67.2% compared to the end of the third quarter of last year.
He began reducing his stake in the iPhone manufacturer during the fourth quarter of 2023 and significantly increased his selling in the second quarter, when he unexpectedly sold nearly half of his investment, the report added.
Berkshire and its subsidiaries also invest in certain businesses using the equity method, with significant holdings in common stock of The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NASDAQ">KHC</a>) and Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OXY#NYSE">OXY</a>).
As of September 30, 2024, the firm owned 26.9% of Kraft Heinz&#8217;s outstanding shares and 28.2% of Occidental&#8217;s outstanding shares.
Q3 In Detail
The company reported third-quarter net earnings of $18,272 per average equivalent Class A share, compared with a $(8,824) loss per share in the year-ago period.&nbsp;
The company registered net earnings of $12.18 per average equivalent Class B share, compared with $(5.88) per share year over year.
In the third quarter, insurance underwriting generated earnings of $750 million versus $2.42 billion year over year (down 69%).
Earnings from insurance investment income were $3.664 billion, higher&nbsp;than $2.470 billion a year ago.
Buffett, 94, is one of the best-known fundamental investors in the world. Known as the &#8220;Oracle of Omaha,&#8221; he has a real-time net worth of $142.2 billion&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/warren-buffett/?sh=2ee1b9a34639" rel="noreferrer noopener">per</a> Forbes.

Kraft Heinz posts Q3 earnings of 75 cents per share, beating estimates, but reports a revenue decline and anticipates a prolonged recovery in U.S. retail.
The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NASDAQ">KHC</a>) shares are <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/b41620891/kraft-heinz-reports-third-quarter-2024-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">trading lower on Wednesday.</a>
The company reported adjusted earnings per share of 75 cents, beating the analyst consensus estimate of 74 cents. Quarterly revenues of $6.383 billion (down 2.8%) missed the street view of $6.417 billion.
The adjusted gross profit margin rose by 30 basis points to 34.3%.
&#8220;In the third quarter, our top-line performance across two of our strategic pillars, Global Away From Home and Emerging Markets, grew in line with our expectations,&#8221; said Kraft Heinz CEO Carlos Abrams-Rivera.
Operating income fell by 115.5%, primarily due to non-cash impairment losses of $1.4 billion, while adjusted operating income increased by 1.4%.
&#8220;As we look forward, we are expecting continued momentum in these two pillars. When we look at our U.S. Retail business, we are expecting more of an elongated recovery, driven by specific categories that continue to experience pressure,&#8221; the CEO added.
