One-Month Return: -3% Best known for its Arm & Hammer baking soda, Church & Dwight (NYSE:CHD) is a household and personal care products company with a vast portfolio that spans laundry detergent to toothbrushes to hair removal creams. Why Is CHD Not Exciting? Core business is underperforming as its organic revenue has disappointed over the past two years, suggesting it might need acquisitions to stimulate growth Estimated sales growth of 1% for the next 12 months implies demand will slow from its three-year trend Expenses have increased as a percentage of revenue over the last year as its operating margin fell by 4.9 percentage points Church & Dwight's stock price of $94.97 implies a valuation ratio of 25.2x forward P/E.

One-Month Return: -3.8% Best known for its aluminum foil, Reynolds (NASDAQ:REYN) is a household products company whose products focus on food storage, cooking, and waste. Why Do We Pass on REYN? Falling unit sales over the past two years show it's struggled to move its products and had to rely on price increases Forecasted revenue decline of 1.4% for the upcoming 12 months implies demand will fall off a cliff Free cash flow margin dropped by 6.1 percentage points over the last year, implying the company became more capital intensive as competition picked up Reynolds is trading at $21.49 per share, or 13x forward P/E.
