and
Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc.SPB
looked oversold when Jefferies reviewed stock performance of HPC/beverages relative to
Consumer Staples Select Sect. SPDR (ETF)XLP
/S&P 500 versus U.K. exposure.

"We'd acknowledge NWL/SPB's more discretionary portfolios/higher debt leverage in an uncertain global macro; however, patient investors are likely to be rewarded with NWL/SPB trading at 15x/16x EV/ULFCF vs. group at 22x," analyst Kevin Grundy wrote in a note.
