Envestnet Asset Management Inc. significantly reduced its holding in Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP), selling 1,308,929 shares during the third quarter. This transaction decreased Envestnet's stake in the beverage company by 43.1%. Despite the substantial sale, the asset manager still retains approximately 1.7 million KDP shares, valued at an estimated $44.05 million. Concurrently, Keurig Dr Pepper recently declared a quarterly dividend of $0.23 per share, representing an annual yield of 3.2%. Wall Street analysts, meanwhile, maintain a "Moderate Buy" consensus rating for KDP, with an average target price set at $34.87. The move by Envestnet appears to be a portfolio adjustment rather than a reflection of a negative outlook on KDP's fundamentals.
