Finward Bancorp Acquisition $FFBC is a great partner for $FNWD- 6.4 x cost save earnings, 7 month payback and a dividend increase. Everything’s Archie! - https://t.co/qymOJS625L

Let's congratulate the market and the investment community for a moment on filling the gap from $WDFC on that nonsensical earnings beat. I read the transcript twice and the magnitude of upside in the quarter still didn't make sense. For this kind of business it should have been a simple explanation from management. Instead it was innuendo and evasion.

Yeah, $CPB bulls trying to hold the line on the 2002 and 1995 lows. They have some solid brands for sure, but the management is moronic, the board even worse, they have no clue on capital management, and the balance sheet is a disaster. Everything but the last point is an argument for this business to be sold. However, that leverage.... I guess someone can come in and eliminate the dividend which frees up $450MM in FCF. From there you can probably delever this biz 2-3 turns in a few years. Tough sledding, but there's a lot of wasted advertising across this company, that's for sure.

$SWIM. Stock has barely budged over the last 2 weeks despite: 1) $PNR pre-announcing pool pump sales -17% and 2) $LESL filing for BK citing slowing new pool demand. Expectation of HSD growth this year are disconnected from reality. Earnings miss and guidance cut likely coming.
