Companies We Care About: Starbucks, Apple, Google, & Amazon [view article]
WFMI in Alabama is always packed - always, even today as we speak and as the market goes every which way.... It seems almost to be a bit of a refuge, one just feels better in there... It's at a major discount now and, please - a Kroger, Wal Mart, Safeway, A&P, Publix... are NOT equals to WF. No way. I can't "techically" shop there based on strict economics, but like many, I do. It's just a great place. Again, check the parking lots....Reply
Has the Economy Killed the Health Food Craze? [view article]
I still feel that we are seeing a great deal of health food concepts and that people in most cases are choosing to eat healthy. ReplyGeneral Discussion on WFMI
i'm surprised whole foods still holding up at 19 something a shear. Is there any one looking at their product, produce and their super smart invention they brought to the world 365. ok where was this products produced, what kind of genetic modifications (No Seed) and how long ago? yeah USDA stamp on, but that doesn't mean anything. we only see the big picture, people take a Sec and think about it..........

Brilliant article with astute perceptions! ReplyCompanies We Care About: Starbucks, Apple, Google, & Amazon [view article]
ubiquitous aapl? A phone worth a couple of hundred bucks is not upscale? And what was the market share of AAPL again - have they broken 20%. Does this really pass muster? ReplyCompanies We Care About: Starbucks, Apple, Google, & Amazon [view article]
Well, yeah ! But when was the last time anyone 'Yahoo'd" something ... Google is ubiquitous .....And MSFT is just an annoying expense every year or so for no real benefit... Kinda like paying to do your taxes..jegan ;-) Reply

Cool article. Unfortunately being a SAGA company doesn't necessarily equate to a bullish future. I'd say the advantages are already priced into the stocks which then makes you wonder where should you put your money?Kevin

In particular BBBY is a short. Earnings forecast from the next conference call in less than 2 weeks will be either at or below expectations. The stock above $30 is priced to perfection already. ReplyA Perfect Storm: Retail Is a Buy [view article]
Retail will underperform fro the rest of 2008. ReplyHas the Economy Killed the Health Food Craze? [view article]
selene,im not sure the author is making the case that Whole Foods is the only place to get healthy foods. I think he just used it as an example. his point is that generally health food and proprietors of health food should do well regardless of the economy. at least, thats how I understood the article.

Disagree STRONGLY with the implication that you have to shop at WFMI to get healthy food. ReplyHas the Economy Killed the Health Food Craze? [view article]
"While there may be a reflexive reaction to an economy in recession, over the long haul society has made its decision to live a healthier lifestyle."I fully agree with that statement. Society has surely started to take a step in the right direction, for a better life. It also helps from a financial perspective;
you may be paying a little more for healthy food, but you will be saving LOTS more in healthcare costs in the future.

I wonder if 'cutting back' is just 'not throwing out' ?In other words, leftovers are now eaten, thereby cutting back on the amount of groceries purchased weekly.

Agree with this. Definitely folks have been cutting back around the edges. But the bigger picture is that it's not a "craze" - it's a way of life, and it's been my family's way of live for 20 years...So two decades is secular, not cyclical. It will come back, but will take time, as with everything.
