Start getting ready people
Start saving your money to buy Kelloggs stock. The stock is going down and will get worse when they report next quarter. Target price to buy is 62. Then the company will be sold.
Kellogg's cannot run a sales organization thru reports behind a desk!
I could be wrong about 2nd qtr numbers but that is what understood from K's presser. And from a Mgr. Let's be realistic here, Eanie-Day does not want the huge costs associated with a DSD sales force. That's fine but along with that action will be a... — read more
New model not working
I honestly believe the buyers remorse is setting in. Qtr 2 numbers flat even with double dip deliveries to both stores and warehouses. I honestly expected much stronger snack numbers but they were flat. I'm sure that made K leadership hearts skip a... — read more
I'm almost 100% percent positive
This is the way it will go down....Kelloggs will try to reverse this by hiring more Sales Reps very soon. Which still won't work. They will hire more part time merchandisers. Which won't work either. Then people at the top will get canned or leave... — read more
Keebler

60 minutes on replacing us workers with foreign h1b
Another episode on 60 minutes about having to train foreign workers to take your job. I wonder if anyone on the Kellogg executive team ever loses any sleep on all the jobs they sent to India and the Phillipines? Doubt it.
Board members
If the board members actually do their jobs. The CEO and upper management are within 6 months of losing their jobs. Can't come fast enough and should be interesting. The next CEO or company that buys Kelloggs will have their hands full. It will be... — read more
Switching to frito and nabisco
Everybody switching to different vendors be careful. Especially direct competitors. Otherwise you'll be going down the same rabbit hole you just did. I'm getting out of retail. It's a dieing business.

Stock has been upgraded
Ok where is the person who claimed they were gonna report kelloggs for false reporting?? Stock was moved from neutral to overweight today. ALL FALSE. Filling up warehouses is not sales. Game Over
Wheeeeee
