Throughout the final week of January, $PG successfully defended the $144.34 (Tier 2) zone. Despite broader market pressure, the stock closed the week at $151.77.
This price action confirms that $PG is behaving exactly as a Defensive Titan should: it is providing a “low-beta” buffer for our portfolio. While $ORCL dropped 50% from its peak, $PG is sitting at a manageable 17.4% discount from its November 2024 high of $180.43.
The 5-Tier Strategy: Procter & Gamble ($PG) Roadmap
Calculated from the peak of $180.43 (Nov 2024):
| Tier | Pullback % | Target Price | Current Action |
| Tier 1 | -10% | $162.38 | Core Position: Holding. |
| Tier 2 | -20% | $144.34 | Accumulated: Recently filled; currently in profit. |
| Tier 3 | -30% | $126.30 | Safety Zone: Monitoring (unlikely). |
| Tier 4 | -40% | $108.26 | Deep Value: Highly unlikely. |
| Tier 5 | -50% | $90.22 | Resilience Threshold: The “Absolute Floor.” |
The Next Move: Strategy for the Week of Feb 2, 2026
1. Executing the Tier-Swap Profit Rule
Since $PG has bounced from the $144 level and is now approaching $150, we are preparing for our first Tier-Swap.
- The Plan: If you added to your position at the Tier 2 ($144.34) mark, your target exit for that specific lot is $162.38 (Tier 1).
- The Move: As $PG climbs back toward $162, we sell the Tier 2 shares to lock in a 12.5% gain. We keep the Tier 1 core for the long-term dividend compounding.
2. Dividend Capture
$PG remains a “Dividend King.” With the next ex-dividend date approaching in April, holding these tiers allows us to capture a safe 2.8% – 3% yield while we wait for the price to return to the $180 peak.
3. Support Monitoring
For the coming week, the $144.34 level remains our primary “buy-back” zone. If the market experiences another broad sell-off and $PG dips back to this level, it is a high-probability entry point for a “Double Bottom” play.
Conclusion: The Power of the Defensive Titan
Procter & Gamble is doing exactly what it was hired to do: protect capital. While our “Growth Titans” like Oracle are testing their 50% Resilience Thresholds, $PG is providing the stability needed to stay the course. By following the Tier-Swap Rule, we can manufacture gains even in a sideways market.
