P&G is a blue chip stock with a tremendous portfolio of consumer products brands. I am consistently impressed/appalled by their products/pricing. (such as when I purchase a 12 pack of Mach 3 razors for $25)

Consumer staples have outperformed since August and will continue to outperform in the next 12 months as we deal with an unstable macroeconomic environment. This is a re-entry play on P&G which is down from $71 to $66 over the last couple months. I was able to lock in a +5 pt gain and lower my cost basis by doing so. Love it.

I hope to shave off some more points with this baby.

Strong international presence, lots of growth opportunity, well-integrated with Walmart supply chain (for the last 20 years), etc ... Exceptionally well-run company that's not afraid to invest in the long-term.Just timing the dips to max out returns is the trick. $66 is a nice entry point!
