Unilever's ice cream sale unlikely to get investors flocking, says leading bank

  • UBS has stuck a 'sell' tag on Unilever PLC (LSE:ULVR), arguing that optimism around its upcoming ice cream spin-off may already be baked into the share price. With the stock trading at 4,637p and the broker setting a 12-month target of 4,000p, the downside case rests on the view that the Anglo-Dutch giant's turnaround narrative faces structural and cyclical hurdles.
