  • Diageo Shares Fall to Lowest Since 2012, £7,500 Investment Drops to £5,750 in Five Weeks
    March 24, 2026, 5:30 AM EDT. Diageo (LSE:DGE) shares have plummeted to their lowest level since January 2012 amid rising UK national debt, inflation, and sector challenges. A £7,500 investment made five weeks ago is now worth just £5,750. The decline accelerated due to the Iran conflict heightening energy and food price inflation and disappointing interim results showing a 4% sales drop to $10.46 billion and halved dividends. Weakness in China and North America weighs on forecasts, with significant net debt of $21.7 billion. Despite setbacks, growth in Guinness sales and plans to expand ready-to-drink offerings among younger consumers suggest Diageo could rebound. The firm faces a tough climate as changing social habits and economic pressures reshape alcohol consumption globally.
