Trading statements from Diageo have, in the past, tended to be on the stodgy side, according to the Tempus column in the Times. When you are the world's biggest drinks behemoth, with brands such as Johnnie Walker, Smirnoff vodka and Captain Morgan rum, updates tend to involve low-digit rises and falls in this market or that. But there has been more momentum behind its performance in recent months and yesterday's statement was sufficiently ahead of market expectations to propel the shares to a new high point, up almost 4 per cent to £13.31½. Overall, sales for the first quarter were ahead by 9 per cent, with volumes up 5 per cent, reflecting price increases in some of its markets despite the difficult economic conditions. The outcome was flattered by a few one-off factors, though, and the real rate of sales growth was closer to 6.5 per cent.The shares sell on about 14 times this year's earnings. Given their outperformance, they may struggle to make much headway for now but remain a strong long-term hold, recommends the Times.
