On to this week's headlines . . .














OUT OF A NEAR JAM?



Folgers Acquisition Gives J.M. Smucker a Jolt




SC Member Susan Maciolek is looking for your take — sweet or not so much — on the J.M. Smucker Company.



Don't let a fellow long-term investor and SC Member get herself into a jam on a jelly of a company whose recent growth is largely attributed to its coffee sales. Check out her Smucker SSG on the SC Forum, and, while you're there, don't forget to leave behind a toast crumb or two of your own.













TRAUB DIVULGES TRADE SECRETS



Self-Described "Purist" Reveals Top Criteria




Speaking of finding sweet opportunities, SC member, software developer and successful long-term investor Ellis Traub has a well-defined parameter when it comes to stock criteria.




"I'm a purist and look specifically for stable sales and earnings growth at a rate that's consistent with my investment goals," Ellis says. "Next, I check the profit margin trend to satisfy myself that the company's management doesn't show signs they're letting up on their diligence in minding the store. And, finally, I check to see what price I must pay in order to have a reasonable expectation of doubling my money in the next five years without undue risk. If I have any doubts, I'll move on to another company.




"It's really rather simple and uncomplicated. Each of these items is important. They're listed in order of their importance; but deficiency in any will disqualify it from being a candidate to buy or hold."

TODAY'S ENTIRELY RELEVANT QUOTATION




"Smucker's brands are "perfectly matched during this recessionary environment" and the company remains in a strong position as consumers are expected to continue their spend-less and eat-at-home ways in the near future."




Janney Montgomery Smith analyst Mitchell B. Pinheiro, in a note to J.M. Smucker investors
