Jim Cramer Says General Mills Yield “Seems Pretty High for a Quality Company” Syeda Seirut Javed Thu, May 14, 2026 at 10:40 PM GMT+7 2 min read GIS MKC UL General Mills, Inc. (NYSE:GIS) was one of the stocks on which Jim Cramer shared his take, explaining that dot-com analogies do not hold up in this market. Cramer called it one of the most “reliable stocks,” as he remarked:
…Anything food, forget about it. Hormel, General Mills, Mc Cormick, they all hit lows today. General Mills, one of the most reliable stocks here in the entire market, now sports a 7.2% yield. That seems pretty high for a quality company like this. Market hasn’t yet caught on to the benefits of that McCormick buying Hellmann’s from Unilever. Hormel’s just plain unfathomable, and the dividend yield of 5.8% seems mighty high, not as high as Campbell’s at 7.56%… You don’t get those kinds of deals unless people are worried that the dividend will need to be cut. That’s what it’s saying.
