CAG's 3Q25 earnings were weak, with organic sales declining 5.2% y/y and gross margin contracting by 390 bps y/y to 24.8%.

Potato maker Lamb Weston Holdings Inc., telecom giant Verizon Communications Inc., drug maker AbbVie Inc. and retailer TJX Cos. all bucked a sharp market selloff Thursday, as Wall Street turned to stocks offering exposure to tariff-resistant businesses such as food, prescription drugs and subscription revenue.
