Bulls Back On Track?

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:21:18 GMT

Your Kind of Day?

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:06:48 GMT

As a rule, I try not to read too terribly much into a "Fed Day" as there is usually a big batch of volatility that may or may not mean much of anything come the dawn of the next day.

But in any event, the volatility after a Fed announcement, while fun to watch, may not be telling as to what to expect in the future.[More...]

PepsiAmericas 3Q profit falls, misses estimates

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 14:14:00 GMT

MINNEAPOLIS - PepsiAmericas Inc., the second-largest Pepsi bottler, said Wednesday that its third-quarter profit fell 13.1 percent, hurt by falling sales, the stronger dollar and several one-time items.
Adjusted results missed analysts' estimates and the company lowered its full-year adjusted earnings guidance, marking a turnaround from the second quarter, when it boosted its guidance on stronger performance.
Volume slipped 9 percent due to consumers cutting their spending in the recession and declining volumes in the U.S., Central and Eastern Europe.
