PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ:PEP) is one of the stocks in Jim Cramer’s game plan for this week. Cramer showed concern about the company’s snack business in light of GLP-1 drugs and the younger generation’s healthier choices. He stated:
“Now we’ve got a couple of important earnings reports on Thursday, including PepsiCo and Delta in the morning. Now, recently, Elliott Management, a hard-charging and thoughtful activist fund, took a big stake in PepsiCo. They want changes. Will management go with Elliott, or is it going to fight Elliott? We’ll probably find out when PEP reports. It’s been a very tough time for shareholders of PepsiCo, but the stock now does yield 4% and it has a very solid snack franchise in Frito-Lay.
