Kerry Group’s share price has been falling steadily since July 2021, from a high of €130 to its current price of around €81.

There are a number of factors. Many are external, such as broad market forces like the rise of anti-obesity drugs, which has hit the food sector hard in the short-term. Some of it is internal, including the relative underperformance of Kerry’s Dairy Ireland division.
