(Photo Illustration by Piotr Swat/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images) SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images Procter &amp; Gamble (NYSE: PG) stock has recently caught attention after Jim Cramer made a positive case for the stock. Both PG and its rival Colgate-Palmolive (CL) are down approximately 12% year-to-date, lagging behind the broader S&amp;P 500, which has risen by 16%.  If you had to make a choice between the two, we think PG is the better option. The company shows more robust revenue growth over critical timeframes, better profitability, and a relatively more appealing valuation when compared to CL.  Specifically, PG’s most recent quarterly revenue increased by 3.0% compared to CL’s 1.0%. On a trailing twelve-month basis, PG’s revenue growth was 1.2%, which is ahead of CL’s 0.1%. Profitability also leans towards PG, featuring a last twelve-month operating margin of 24.1% and a three-year average margin of 23.6%, both exceeding CL’s corresponding figures.  These differences become even more apparent when you view the financials side by side. Before we explore the specifics, if you desire potential gains with diminished volatility compared to holding an individual stock, consider the High Quality Portfolio . It has consistently surpassed its benchmark, which comprises the S&amp;P 500, Russell, and S&amp;P MidCap indexes, and has yielded returns exceeding 105% since its launch. What accounts for this? As a collective, HQ Portfolio stocks have generated better returns with less risk compared to the benchmark index, resulting in a smoother investment experience, as illustrated in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.  The table illustrates how PG’s fundamentals compare with those of CL in terms of growth, margins, momentum, and valuation multiples.

Historical Market Performance Trefis Still uncertain about PG or CL? Think about adopting a portfolio strategy.  Stocks can surge or plummet, but various assets fluctuate at different cycles. A multi-asset portfolio enables you to remain invested while mitigating swings in stocks.  The asset allocation strategy used by Trefis’ Boston-based wealth management partner yielded positive returns during the 2008-09 timeframe when the S&amp;P lost over 40%. Our partner now employs the Trefis Reinforced Value (RV) Portfolio , which has outperformed its all-cap stocks benchmark (a combination of the S&amp;P 500, S&amp;P mid-cap, and Russell 2000 benchmark indices) to deliver substantial returns for investors. What is the reason for this? The quarterly rebalanced mix of large-, mid-, and small-cap RV Portfolio stocks provided a responsive strategy to capitalize on favorable market conditions while minimizing losses during downturns, as explained in RV Portfolio performance metrics .</div>
