Diageo plc (DEO): Use The Bounce In Share Price To Sell, Says Jim Cramer
We recently published . Diageo plc (NYSE:DEO) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Diageo plc (NYSE:DEO)'s shares have lost 12% year-to-date but would have been down much more had it not been for a 13% jump in August. The stock rose after the firm reported 1.7% in full-year organic sales growth to beat analyst estimates of 1.4% and its operating profit dropped by 0.7% which was lower than the 1.2% drop that analysts had penciled in. Here's what Cramer said about the movement in Diageo plc (NYSE:DEO)'s shares: 'In this country we once had prohibition, I'm beginning to think we now have self-prohibition. There's a Gallup poll, talking about American self-reported drinking down 54% after consecutive declines. Believe moderate drinking is bad for health. The Gen Zs aren't drinking. I have to tell you that this is another reason to stay away from the stock of Diageo. Beer remains America's favorite booze, I'm not going to go into beer stocks. . .But I do think that there has been a little bit of a bounce in Diageo. . .and that's a good opportunity to exit. Because this is a mocktail era. People are, I mean it really is temperance. And there are a lot of people who feel that even red wine, they finally got rid of that canard. So be careful in the liquor story because its just not getting better, it's getting worse.' Previously, the CNBC TV host discussed Diageo plc (NYSE:DEO)'s shares and business environment: 'Oh, okay, you came to the right guy because I've been in the bar business, the restaurant business, and the liquor business. I gotta tell you, they all stink. The problem is this: If you're looking at the alcohol business, the GLP-1s, the new generation of people actually care about their health and wellness, and getting fat. Well, alcohol's got all three. And don't forget gummies. Gummies.. very heavy competition. I'd rather own gummies than… Diageo. There, that's a statement.' While we acknowledge the potential of DEO as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

(NASDAQ:IBKR) is an American brokerage company whose shares have gained 38.8% year-to-date. The stock has benefited from strong revenue growth fueled by rising trading.

Cramer discussed the recent share price performance: '[On recent poor share price performance] I think that people felt that maybe I want to be, maybe there's a little more competition.

Fatal explosion at U.S. Steel's plant raises questions about its future despite heavy investment
HARRISBURG, Pa. — The fatal explosion last week at U.S. Steel's Pittsburgh-area coal-processing plant has revived debate about its future just as the iconic American company was emerging from a long period of uncertainty. The fortunes of steelmaking in the United States — along with profits, share prices and steel prices — have been buoyed by years of friendly administrations in Washington that slapped tariffs on foreign imports and bolstered the industry's anticompetitive trade cases against China. Most recently, President Trump's administration postponed new hazardous air pollution requirements for the nation's roughly dozen coke plants, including Clairton Coke Works, where the blast occurred, and he approved U.S. Steel's nearly $15-billion acquisition by Japanese steelmaker Nippon Steel. Nippon Steel's promised infusion of cash has brought vows that steelmaking will continue in the Mon Valley, a river valley south of Pittsburgh long synonymous with steelmaking. 'We're investing money here. And we wouldn't have done the deal with Nippon Steel if we weren't absolutely sure that we were going to have an enduring future here in the Mon Valley,' David Burritt, U.S. Steel's chief executive, said at a news conference Tuesday, a day after the explosion. 'You can count on this facility to be around for a long, long time.' The explosion killed two workers and hospitalized 10 with a blast so powerful that it took hours to find two missing workers beneath charred wreckage and rubble. The cause is under investigation. The plant is considered the largest coking operation in North America and, along with a blast furnace and finishing mill up the Monongahela River, is one of a handful of integrated steelmaking operations left in the U.S. The explosion now could test Nippon Steel's resolve in propping up the nearly 110-year-old Clairton plant, or at least force it to spend more than it had anticipated. Nippon Steel didn't respond to a question as to whether the explosion will change its approach to the plant. A spokesperson for the company said in a statement that its 'commitment to the Mon Valley remains strong' and that it sent 'technical experts to work with the local teams in the Clairton Plant, and to provide our full support.' Meanwhile, Burritt said that he had talked to top Nippon Steel officials after the explosion and that 'this facility and the Mon Valley are here to stay.' U.S. Steel officials say that safety is their top priority and that they spend $100 million a year on environmental compliance at Clairton alone. Repairing Clairton, however, could be expensive, an investigation into the explosion could turn up more problems, and an official from the United Steelworkers union said it's a constant struggle to get U.S. Steel to invest in its plants. Besides that, production at the facility could be affected for some time. The plant has six batteries of ovens, and two — where the explosion occurred — were damaged. Two others are on a reduced production schedule because of the blast. There is no timeline to get the damaged batteries running again, U.S. Steel said. Accidents are nothing new at Clairton, which heats coal to high temperatures to make coke, a key component in steelmaking, and produces combustible gases as byproducts. An explosion in February injured two workers. Even as Nippon Steel was closing the deal in June, a breakdown at the plant dealt three days of a rotten egg odor into the air around it from elevated hydrogen sulfide emissions, the environmental group GASP reported. The Breathe Project, a public health organization, said U.S. Steel has been forced to pay $57 million in fines and settlements since Jan. 1, 2020, for problems at the Clairton plant. A lawsuit over a Christmas Eve fire at Clairton in 2018 that saturated the area's air for weeks with sulfur dioxide produced a withering assessment of conditions there. An engineer for the environmental groups that sued wrote that he 'found no indication that U.S. Steel has an effective, comprehensive maintenance program for the Clairton plant.' Clairton, he wrote, is 'inherently dangerous because of the combination of its deficient maintenance and its defective design.' U.S. Steel settled, agreeing to spend millions on upgrades. Matthew Mehalik, executive director of the Breathe Project, said U.S. Steel has shown more willingness to spend money on paying fines, lobbying the government and buying back shares to reward shareholders than making its plants safe. It's unclear whether Nippon Steel will change Clairton. Central to Trump's approval of the acquisition was Nippon Steel's promises to invest $11 billion into U.S. Steel's aging plants and to give the federal government a say in decisions involving domestic steel production, including plant closings. But much of the $2.2 billion that Nippon Steel has earmarked for the Mon Valley plants is expected to go toward upgrading the finishing mill, or building a new one. For years before the acquisition, U.S. Steel had signaled that the Mon Valley was on the chopping block. That left workers there uncertain whether they'd have jobs in a couple of years and whispering that U.S. Steel couldn't fill openings because nobody believed the jobs would exist much longer. In many ways, U.S. Steel's Mon Valley plants are relics of steelmaking's past. In the early 1970s, U.S. steel production led the world and was at an all-time high, thanks to 62 coke plants that fed 141 blast furnaces. Nobody in the U.S. has built a blast furnace since then, as foreign competition devastated the American steel industry and coal fell out of favor. Now, China is dominant in steel and heavily invested in coal-based steelmaking. In the U.S., there are barely a dozen coke plants and blast furnaces left, as the country's steelmaking has shifted to cheaper electric arc furnaces that use electricity, not coal. Blast furnaces won't entirely go away, analysts say, because they produce metals that are preferred by automakers, appliance makers and oil and gas exploration firms. Still, Christopher Briem, an economist at the University of Pittsburgh's Center for Social and Urban Research, questioned whether the Clairton plant really will survive much longer, given its age and condition. It could be particularly vulnerable if the economy slides into recession or the fundamentals of the American steel market shift, he said. 'I'm not quite sure it's all set in stone as people believe,' Briem said. 'If the market does not bode well for U.S. Steel, for American steel, is Nippon Steel really going to keep these things?' Levy writes for the Associated Press.
