Among these, the targets of Kimberly Clark, International Flavors & Fragrances and Clorox are below the current trading prices of $133.68, $133.92 and $135.35, respectively.

The analyst has a Hold rating on Colgate-Palmolive, Clorox, International Flavors & Fragrances and Kimberly Clark, while he remains Buy-rated on Nu Skin and P&G.

"As many appreciate but have been well-served ignoring in recent quarters, consumer staples have outperformed the market and more discretionary consumer sectors year to date, over the last year and over the last 3 years," Schmitz highlighted.

The analyst sees a path to earnings upside after a barrage of negative revisions at the big multinationals as 1) macro bottoms, 2) currency volatility (outside the pound) eases and 3) commodity costs stabilize.
