Following its split from the North American cereal business in October 2023, Kellanova (previously the global snacking arm of Kellogg) has operated as a leading global manufacturer and marketer of salty snacks, snack bars, frozen breakfast fare, meat alternatives, and other packaged foods. Its offerings are manufactured in around 20 countries and marketed in more than 180 countries.

Looking for broad exposure to the Large Cap Value segment of the US equity market? You should consider the First Trust Value Line Dividend ETF (ARCA:FVD), a passively managed exchange traded fund launched on 08/19/2003.
The fund is sponsored by First Trust Advisors. It has amassed assets over $9.72 billion, making it one of the larger ETFs attempting to match the Large Cap Value segment of the US equity market.
<h2>Why Large Cap Value</h2>
Large cap companies typically have a market capitalization above $10 billion. They tend to be stable companies with predictable cash flows and are usually less volatile than mid and small cap companies.
Carrying lower than average price-to-earnings and price-to-book ratios, value stocks also have lower than average sales and earnings growth rates. When you look at long-term performance, value stocks have outperformed growth stocks in nearly all markets. But in strong bull markets, growth stocks are more likely to be winners.
<h2>Costs</h2>
Expense ratios are an important factor in the return of an ETF and in the long term, cheaper funds can significantly outperform their more expensive counterparts, other things remaining the same.
Annual operating expenses for this ETF are 0.60%, making it one of the most expensive products in the space.
It has a 12-month trailing dividend yield of 2.12%.
<h2>Sector Exposure and Top Holdings</h2>
Even though ETFs offer diversified exposure that minimizes single stock risk, investors should also look at the actual holdings inside the fund. Luckily, most ETFs are very transparent products that disclose their holdings on a daily basis.
This ETF has heaviest allocation to the Industrials sector--about 19.50% of the portfolio. Utilities and Consumer Staples round out the top three.
Looking at individual holdings, Kellanova (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/k#NYSE">K</a>) accounts for about 0.62% of total assets, followed by Erie Indemnity Company (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/erie#NASDAQ">ERIE</a>) and Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lmt#NYSE">LMT</a>).
The top 10 holdings account for about 5.55% of total assets under management.
<h2>Performance and Risk</h2>
FVD seeks to match the performance of the Value Line Dividend Index before fees and expenses. The Value Line Dividend Index is a modified equal dollar weighted index comprised of U.S. exchange listed securities of companies that pay above-average dividends and have potential for capital appreciation.
The ETF has added about 11.07% so far this year and is up about 16.28% in the last one year (as of 09/04/2024). In the past 52-week period, it has traded between $36.09 and $44.80.
The ETF has a beta of 0.79 and standard deviation of 13.51% for the trailing three-year period, making it a medium risk choice in the space. With about 208 holdings, it effectively diversifies company-specific risk.
<h2>Alternatives</h2>
First Trust Value Line Dividend ETF carries a Zacks ETF Rank of 3 (Hold), which is based on expected asset class return, expense ratio, and momentum, among other factors. Thus, FVD is a reasonable option for those seeking exposure to the Style Box - Large Cap Value area of the market. Investors might also want to consider some other ETF options in the space.
The Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (ARCA:SCHD) and the Vanguard Value ETF (ARCA:VTV) track a similar index. While Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF has $59.94 billion in assets, Vanguard Value ETF has $123.92 billion. SCHD has an expense ratio of 0.06% and VTV charges 0.04%.
<h2>Bottom-Line</h2>
An increasingly popular option among retail and institutional investors, passively managed ETFs offer low costs, transparency, flexibility, and tax efficiency; they are also excellent vehicles for long term investors.

As of Sept. 4, 2024, two stocks in the consumer staples sector could be flashing a real warning to investors who value momentum as a key criteria in their trading decisions.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered overbought when the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi">RSI is above 70</a>, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>. 
Here's the latest list of major overbought players in this sector.

August saw the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40648231/wall-street-poised-for-strong-start-as-inflation-data-looms-strategist-says-brace-for-volatile-fall">equity market make good the losses</a> it experienced post its mid-July peak, with earnings and benign data helping the fightback. With August in the rearview mirror, here&#8217;s a look at the leaders and laggards among the S&amp;P 500 Index, a broader gauge of market performance.
3-Part Trend: The month&#8217;s trading could be characterized as a tale of three trends. Stocks extended the weakness into August, with the S&amp;P 500 bottoming on Aug. 5, coinciding with the collapse of the global equity markets. The unwinding of the yen carry trades due to the yen&#8217;s strength perked up risk aversion, sending Japanese stocks into a tailspin, and the reverberations became evident elsewhere.
The S&amp;P 500 Index fell 4.3% intraday on Aug. 5, which happened to be a Monday. The collapse was promptly dubbed Black Monday 2.0 to differentiate it from the Black Monday crash of Oct. 1987. The CBOE Volatility Index, commonly called VIX, more than doubled to 65.73 intraday before pulling back. 
On a positive note, the S&amp;P 500 closed off the lows of the day and was down a more modest 3% by the close.
The market saw a steady recovery from the low through Aug. 22, thanks to a slew of catalysts that reinforced expectations that the Federal Open Market Committee would begin cutting rates at its September meeting.
The strong and rapid recovery pushed traders on the defensive, and the market has been moving sideways since then.

For August, the S&amp;P 500 Index gained 2.28%, ending the month at 5,648.40, off its record closing high of 5,667.20 hit on July 16.

The Leaders: None of the Magnificent seven stocks, which have been spearheading the broader market uptrend since the start of the 2023, made it to the list of the top 10 gainers. The list featured two cybersecurity companies, namely CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>) and Fortinet, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTNT#NASDAQ">FTNT</a>). CrowdStrike was rebounding from its global-outage-induced slump seen since July 19. 
Fortinet was helped by a strong post-earnings rally.
Two household and personal care products companies also made the cut, while a management change did the truck for coffee chain Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>).
The top 10 gainers for the month are:
<ul>
<li>Packaged food company Kellanova&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/K#NYSE">K</a>) (+38.62%) (upside primarily due to the rumors of a buyout by privately-held Mars and the subsequent confirmation of the deal)</li>
<li>Fortinet (+32.17%)</li>
<li>Starbucks (+26.52%)</li>
<li>Axon Enterprise, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXON#NASDAQ">AXON</a>) (+21.65%); Much of the gains stemmed from a post-earnings bump seen on Aug.7)</li>
<li>Clorox Company&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLX#NYSE">CLX</a>) (+21.02%)</li>
<li>CrowdStrike (+19.54%)</li>
<li>Kenvue Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KVUE#NYSE">KVUE</a>) (+19.88%)</li>

<li>Progressive Corporation&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGR#NYSE">PGR</a>) (+17.78%)</li>
</ul>
The Laggards: Artificial intelligence server manufacturer Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>), which had a dream run after its inclusion in the S&amp;P 500 Index, plummeted following a short report and the delay flagged by the company in filing its 10-K report. Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), which is fraught with fundamental risk, was also one of the worst performers for the month.
A few retailers ended up in the list of the top 10 S&amp;P 500 decliners for August.
The top 10 losers for the month are:
<ul>
<li>Super Micro (-37.62%)</li>
<li>Moderna, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRNA#NASDAQ">MRNA</a>) (-35.08%)</li>
<li>Dollar General Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DG#NYSE">DG</a>) (-31.08%)</li>
<li>Intel (-27.86%)</li>

<li>Etsy, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NASDAQ">ETSY</a>) (-15.43%)</li>
</ul>
Earnings reactions triggered the weakness seen in some of these stocks, including Intel, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40139012/moderna-stock-trading-lower-on-dismal-guidance-analysts-cuts-price-targets-noting-c">Moderna, which reduced its full-year forecast.</a>
With the Fed all but decided on a September rate cut, some of these beaten-down stocks, especially those in the retail space, could stage a turnaround. 
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), an exchange-traded fund that tracks the S&amp;P 500 Index, ended Friday&#8217;s session up 0.95% at $563.68, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro data.</a>

Magnificent 7 Miss Out, 2 Cybersecurity Stocks Stand Firm, Retailers Lag In Volatile August: Here Are The Top S&P 500 Gainers And Losers

The food industry is ripe for consolidation now that the Federal Reserve is expected to cut <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">interest rates in September</a>.
According to Kevin Dreyer, co-CIO of Value at Gabelli Funds, lower rates generally stimulate M&amp;A activity. 
"One thing to note is that, as rates come down, that tends to lead to an upswing in M&amp;A activity," Dreyer told CNBC on Friday, Aug. 23. &#8220;Food stocks have had a tough year — the consumer stretch, inflation has been biting them — they&#8217;ve been struggling with volume growth, but snacking has been a good area within food.&#8221;

Mars Inc.'s recent acquisition of Kellanova (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/K#NYSE">K</a>) for $35.9 billion bodes well for the sector, Dreyer noted. The move reflects a strategic realignment, exemplifying how companies are looking to strengthen their positions in more profitable niches.
In October 2023, Kellanova, which has the global snacking segment, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/10/35066611/cereal-brand-gets-soggy-after-kellanova-spin-off-analyst-blames-headwinds-on-debt" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">completed its separation</a> from WK Kellogg Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLG#NYSE">KLG</a>).

Campbell Soup Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPB#NASDAQ">CPB</a>) has also been active, recently acquiring Sovos Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOVO#NASDAQ">SOVO</a>), the maker of Rao's pasta sauce. 
Dreyer sees Campbell Soup as a company to watch, suggesting they could "end up following the &#8216;Kellogg-Kellanova playbook&#8217;." 
Campbell Soup&#8217;s investor day is coming up in September. Expected the company to outline plans, which could further shape the landscape of the food sector.
As for which companies are attractive takeover targets, Dreyer cited his favorite mid-cap food stock: BellRing Brands Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRBR#NYSE">BRBR</a>), maker of Premier Protein shakes.
"Premier Proteins is growing mid-teens right now in an industry that is struggling to grow at all. We think they will continue to do great on their own, but somebody else may want to buy them," Dreyer said, highlighting the potential for BellRing Brands to be an attractive M&amp;A target.
As M&amp;A activity gains momentum, investors are advised to keep a close eye on potential deals that could reshape the industry landscape, providing new opportunities for growth and investment.

In a standout M&amp;A move, Mars, Inc. has agreed to acquire Kellanova (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/K#NYSE">K</a>) for $83.50 per share, marking a 44% premium over its 30-day average price. The $35.9 billion transaction is anticipated to be finalized in the first half of 2025, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/08/40376430/mars-to-buy-kellanova-for-36b-snickers-maker-moves-up-a-rank-on-largest-private-company-list" rel="noreferrer noopener">subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals.</a>
Here&#8217;s what analysts are saying about the deal:
<ul>
<li>RBC Capital Markets analyst Nik Modi downgraded Kellanova from Outperform to Sector Perform, raising the price forecast to $83.50 from $76.</li>
<li>Piper Sandler analyst Michael S. Lavery reiterated the Neutral rating on the stock, raising the price forecast to $83 from $63.</li>

RBC Capital: According to Modi, the price forecast has been raised to match the deal price.
The analyst anticipates no competing bids or closure issues for the deal, citing minimal category overlap.
Modi notes that the deal aligns with Mars&#8217; snacking strategy and faces minimal FTC risk due to the distinct portfolios. The analyst projects FY24 EPS of $3.62 and FY25 EPS of $3.92.
Piper Sandler: Lavery anticipates antitrust clearance due to minimal category overlap, with the exception of wholesome snack bars, where regulatory concerns are unlikely.
Mars holds an approximately 11% share in wholesome snack bars, compared to Kellanova&#8217;s ~5% share over the past 52 weeks, Lavery highlights.
The analyst maintained 2024 EPS of $3.70 and 2025E EPS of $3.79.
Mars&#8217; wholesome snack bars are priced about 135% higher than Kellanova&#8217;s.
The fragmented snacking category and lack of entry barriers suggest minimal risk of increased brand pricing post-acquisition, the analyst adds.
Price Action: K shares are trading higher by 0.07% to $80.34 at last check Thursday.

The creator of the Famous Amos cookie empire and a passionate advocate for children&#8217;s literacy, Wallace &#8220;Wally&#8221; Amos, passed away at the age of 88.
What Happened: Amos, who lost ownership of the Famous Amos company and the rights to use his name, later became the owner of a cookie shop, Chip &amp; Cookie, in Hawaii. He passed away at his home in Honolulu from complications related to dementia, according to his children, according to <a href="https://apnews.com/article/wallace-amos-died-8ae1ee33fb8f49d483da81ea485b8864#:~:text=HONOLULU%20(AP)%20%E2%80%94%20Wallace%20%E2%80%9C,He%20was%2088">AP News</a>.
His children, in a statement, described Amos as a &#8220;great American success story, and a source of Black pride.&#8221; They noted his influence on a generation of entrepreneurs when he founded the world&#8217;s first cookie store in Los Angeles in 1975.

Amos also co-founded Uncle Wally&#8217;s Muffin Co., whose products are sold nationwide. Despite his fame, Amos maintained that being famous was &#8220;highly overrated.&#8221;
Amos was also known for his efforts in promoting literacy. He served as a spokesperson for Literacy Volunteers of America for 24 years and was recognized for his volunteerism, including receiving the Literacy Award from President George H.W. Bush in 1991.
Why It Matters: His created brand, Famous Amos, was part of a significant business deal in 2019. <a href="https://drupal-cloudfront.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/19/04/13470376/analyst-kellogg-trims-the-fat-by-selling-keebler-other-">Kellogg Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/K#NYSE">K</a>)</a> sold its cookies, fruit and fruit-flavored snacks, pie crusts, and ice cream cone businesses to the Ferrero Group for $1.3 billion. 
The brands involved in the sale included Keebler, Famous Amos, Mother's, Murray brands, Stretch Island brand, and cookies manufactured for Girl Scouts of the USA. These businesses generated $900 million in sales with approximately $75 million in profit, representing 6.6 percent of Kellogg's sales.

Mars — the packaged food conglomerate that owns Snickers, Cheez-It and other snack brands — will soon add Pop-Tarts, Eggo Waffles, Pringles and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40364761/confectionery-giant-mars-to-acquire-cheez-it-parent-kellanova-in-35-9b-deal">more to its portfolio</a>.

Kellanova brought in around $13 billion in revenue last year, while Mars' annual revenue was around $45 billion. The two companies were reportedly working out the details <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40152783/cheez-it-and-pringles-maker-kellanova-acquisition-eyed-by-snickers-fame-mars-report">earlier this month</a> after Kellanova reported strong <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40102261/snack-giant-kellanova-soars-over-5-on-strong-q2-results-and-upgraded-fy24-guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">second-quarter results</a>.

Until then, the top-five ranking of the largest U.S. privately held companies is as follows:
<ol>
<li>Cargill, Incorporated: The Minnesota-based agricultural and food company specializes in oils for processed foods. Cargill does more than $175 billion in revenue annually, according to <a href="https://www.forbes.com/lists/largest-private-companies/">Forbes.&nbsp;</a></li>
<li>Koch Industries is a multi-sector conglomerate that operates in the oil, petroleum, gas and fertilizer industries. Koch does around $125 billion in revenue and <a href="https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/koch-industries/summary?id=d000000186">spends</a> billions annually on political contributions and lobbying. </li>
<li>Publix Supermarkets, headquartered in Florida, does around $55 billion in revenue and is one of the largest grocery chains in Florida. Publix also has locations in other southern states such as Georgia and Tennessee.</li>
<li>Mars is known for making confectionery items, including Mars bars, Twix, Milky Way and Three Musketeers. It also produces non-confectionery snacks (i.e., Combos, Ben&#8217;s Original and Dolmio pasta sauce) and an array of pet foods.</li>
<li>H-E-B Grocery Company is fifth on the list, raking in around $44 billion in revenue annually. Like Publix, H-E-B has carved out a significant market in the southern U.S., with most of its locations in Texas. </li>
</ol>
Other notable American private companies that did not break the top five include Lego (around $10 billion in revenue), Chick-fil-A (around $12 billion in revenue) and Staples (around $8 billion in revenue).&nbsp;

Mars To Buy Kellanova For $36B: Deal Would Rank Snickers Maker Among 3 Largest Private Companies

The July consumer inflation report released Wednesday confirmed a continued cooling trend in price increases across the economy, with the headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) coming in at 2.9% year-over-year, slightly below both the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/08/40365730/july-inflation-rate-falls-more-than-expected-supports-hopes-for-large-fed-rate-cu">previous and expected 3%. </a>
Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, also saw a modest decline from 3.3% to 3.2% year-over-year, aligning with economists&#8217; forecasts.
For investors, this signals that the Federal Reserve may have the green light to cut interest rates in September. However, the odds of a 25 basis point hike are slightly higher than those of a 50 basis point cut.
Wall Street had a mixed response to the data. Major indices initially rose around 10 a.m. E.T. before flattening out by midday trading in New York.
Both S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100 are striving to secure their fifth consecutive sessions in the green.
Financial stocks outperformed among the 11 sectors of the S&amp;P 500. The biggest laggards were communication services, weighed down by a decline in Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), and consumer discretionary, dragged by Tesla Inc.

Long-dated Treasury yields fell by 4 basis points, boosting the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) by 0.6%.
The U.S. dollar index, as tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>), remained steady, while gold eased by 1%.
Oil prices, tracked by the United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>), declined by 1.1%, marking the second consecutive session of losses.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) dropped 2.4% to $59,100.
