Consumer Staples Get Whacked, But Trade Levels Are Near

This morning, the leading consumer staples stocks are selling off sharply. Stocks such as Kimberly Clark Corp(NYSE:KMB), Procter & Gamble Co(NYSE:PG), Clorox Co(NYSE:CLX), and Colgate-Palmolive Company(NYSE:CL) remain under pressure since the opening bell. It should be noted that all of these stocks have struggled since late June. Many of these stocks are now nearing important support levels for a trade.

Kimberly Clark Corp(NYSE:KMB) is a leading consumer staple stock that is trading lower today. The stock has been selling off since June 26, 2017 when it traded as high as $134.29 a share. Since that pivot high the stock has plunged to $116.63 a share. Traders and investors should now watch the $115.00 level for major support. This is where the stock broke out in January 2017. Often, when a stock retests a break-out level it will serve as major support and be defended by the institutional money.
