There is not a single house in North America that doesn't have a Heinz product in it. I actually have to buy their brand when buying these categories of products, that is because their recipe is way better. This kind of trademark force is what pushed Coke for so long. In this times of economic uncertainty, I feel confident that Heinz will retain most of their retail and institutional clients. For the retail clients, it's clearly the taste of the product that makes it. For the institutional clients, that is the prestige that Heinz's logos bring to another product. This counts, but the ...
TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says this consumer-products titan has weathered the storm and should enjoy lower inputs.
General Mills (NYSE: GIS) (Cramer's Take) hits another 52-week high. This company has been one of the great standout performers this year, just a juggernaut, even though it is a gigantic buyer of grains and a huge user of cardboard boxes and plastic wrapping. Plus, it needs gasoline t...

Is there a way to cash in on the commodities bubble without actually playing the commodities market? (Which, Andrew Tobias handily dismissed in The Only Investment Guide You'll Ever Need: "It is a fact that 90% or more of the people who play the commodities game get burned. I submit that you have now read all you need ever read about commodities.")
TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says the exchange rate plus massive undervaluations make the great brands prime targets.
There's always been a groupthink in Europe about currencies. The companies that want to buy American companies have, at times, seemed to care more about the currency, or at least not buying a company in a country whose currency is in decline, than they care about the actual target.
TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says they have successfully increased price, and their stocks have room to run.
It's tough not to be a Pollyanna after talking to Bill Johnson, the CEO of Heinz (NYSE: HNZ) (Cramer's Take), and after reading the Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG) (Cramer's Take) quarterly transcript. Both of these companies have had to deal with hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars of raw cost increases, and both have not only come through with flying colors but are...

The stock has dropped from early July from $48 to $42 and change. Technical traders note it appears to breaking through support levels. Management seems a little concerned before the meeting and desperately needs to point to something positive.
