Following up on Campbell Soup's (CPB) public disagreement in the soup category with Wal-Mart (WMT), Credit Suisse analyst Robert Moskow says the dispute specifically relates to Wal-Mart's demands for lower everyday price points on Campbell's condensed soup products. While this dispute does not appear to involve General Mills' (GIS) Progresso brand or the ready-to-serve category at this time, the analyst notes that Wal-Mart presumably could threaten to give more shelf space to General Mills or its Great Value brand at Campbell's expense. Campbell and Wal-Mart are still negotiating, Moskow points out, adding that it may be a good thing for the stock if Campbell can get Wal-Mart to agree to a compromise. The analyst reiterates an Underperform rating and $43 price target on Campbell's shares.
