Stock news · updated daily
Hershey's is trying to win over health-conscious consumers with a new protein powder -- and figure out how to get people on weight-loss drugs snacking again.
Mondelez has surged more than 23% this year while Hershey barely moved, yet one metric that income investors care about most flips the story completely in Hershey's favor.
Rose's Income Garden portfolio review highlights 15 most undervalued and 15 most overvalued dividend stocks using 52-week high/low analysis. Energy names like XOM, SHEL, and CVX have rotated into overvalued territory, while high-yield REITs such as VICI remain top undervalued picks. Dividend yield remains a key selection criterion, with several undervalued stocks offering yields above 5% and investment-grade credit ratings.
Hershey (HSY) closed the most recent trading day at $167, moving 2.24% from the previous trading session.
Five consumer goods stocks are trading near 52-week lows, but their dividends, some paying more than 7%, suggest the market may be overlooking what's changing beneath the surface.
Hersheypark's "haunt sliders" — scare actors who slide on knee pads — have gained a fanbase on TikTok. "The makeup stays ON" commented one thirsty fan.
Hershey raised its 2026 full-year guidance last quarter in anticipation of a strong second half. The stock has not fared as well, falling more than 12% in the past year.
A childless candy maker secretly handed his fortune to orphans in 1918, and the legal structure he chose still controls one of America's biggest snack companies today.
