Farmers Hit the Jackpot in Kansas Oil Boom
What was the biggest thing in earnings news yesterday? Well, depending on your investing bias, it was either Burger King (BKC), which reported its first public quarter with a seven cents per share loss; or Whole Foods (WFMI), which is down big after reporting a good profit yesterday, but missing estimates on sales and offering what analysts are calling "confusing" guidance for full-year 2006 and 2007 sales. Bear Stearns rates Whole Foods at "underperform" and UBS has a "neutral" rating.
The stocks were both down sharply yesterday; Burger King was down $2.01, or 13%, to $13.24 (with a slight recovery in after-hours trading); and Whole Foods fell $6.76, or nearly 12%, to $50.75.
Let's say you're the average food investor, wondering: should I put my money where my health is? Or go for the fatty deep-fried flavor? Where's the value?
