barrons3	An eclectic group of stocks are now up for days on end, including Caterpillar (CAT), Panera (PNRA) and Hershey (HSY).	Love	July 30, 2009
barrons3	Wasn't Hershey (HSY) great despite the high P/E? Will the analysts capitulate, or will they still hate it?	Love	July 23, 2009
barrons3	Lastly, Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), Colgate-Palmolive (CL) and Hershey (HSY) are the stocks to buy for anyone feeling a bit more cautious. These are classic defensive names for anyone who is not as bullish on the economy.	Love	June 11, 2009
ElectionStocks	Cheap sugar.	Love	May 07, 2009
barrons3	Hershey (HSY) reported a ridiculously great quarter -- ridiculous because no one cared and no one upgraded it. Which was absurd, given its quality and momentum.	Love	May 07, 2009
Stockpickr Staff	"I think the quarter is going to be dynamite. Raw costs are down. This is the only food stock with 15% to 20% upside when it reports."

sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show: "This one is very tough. I like the food group, but it's not as good as Campbell Soup (CPB) and I like Cadbury (CBY) more."	Love	September 16, 2008
barrons2	The candy maker was among the most active names on the NYSE Monday.	Love	August 19, 2008
sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show: "I don't think Hershey has the horses. I see the house of pain for that company. On any lift I want you to sell, sell, sell."	Love	June 22, 2008
barrons2	Shares of Hershey’s (HSY) were among the most actively traded stocks on the NYSE Monday.	Love	June 17, 2008
sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show: "This is a difficult one. I can't recommend it on takeover rumors when the fundamentals aren't that good. Why not look into HJ Heinz (HNZ)"	Love	May 15, 2008
barrons2	Cadbury (CBY) might be the call today. This candy maker's forecast about rising gross margins flies in the face of everyone from Hershey (HSY) to ConAgra (CAG), from Heinz (HNZ)to General Mills (GIS).	Love	May 15, 2008

barrons2	Hershey has seen its stock drop to 35 from 56 last spring and has lost its reputation as one of the best-run food companies. It is paying the price for insufficient spending on marketing, and disappointing initiatives in snack foods. Rival Mars continues to gain market share. Hershey is the only major food company whose profits are heading south -- to an expected $1.85 to $1.90 a share, down from $2.08 in 2007 and $2.37 in 2006. The stock might not be a bargain, however, because Hershey's P/E, at 19, is above the group average. Its chocolate and confectionary franchise has scant international exposure. A takeover is possible, but the controlling Hershey Trust hasn't been interested in a sale, and buyers in the food industry typically avoid turnaround candidates.	Love	February 09, 2008
