Reckitt Benckiser Group plc Stock (RKT): Buyback Momentum, Analyst Forecasts, and What Investors Are Watching on 15 December 2025

Reckitt Benckiser Group plc (LSE: RKT) has become one of those “quietly loud” UK large-caps: the underlying business (consumer health and hygiene) is designed to be steady, but the equity story in 2025 has been anything but boring.

Unilever PLC Stock (ULVR): Price, Forecasts and Latest Analyst Calls as of December 15, 2025

Unilever PLC stock is starting the week with investors still digesting one of the biggest portfolio moves in the group’s modern history: the ice cream separation that created The Magnum Ice Cream Company as a newly listed standalone business. While the demerger removes a notoriously complex cold-chain operation from Unilever’s day-to-day mix, it also strips out a familiar earnings stream—so the market’s attention has snapped to a simpler question: can “new Unilever” deliver faster growth and higher margins in beauty, personal care and wellbeing? As of December 15, 2025 (08:01 GMT), Unilever shares (ULVR) were trading at 4,844 GBp, up
