Why Pfizer, Netflix, Amazon.com, Deutsche Bank, and Cal-Maine Foods Are Trending

For the period, Cal-Maine lost $0.64 per share on revenue of $239.85 million, missing the average analyst estimates by $0.31 per share and $34.72 million respectively. Sales dropped by a whopping 60.7% year-over-year, as egg prices tumbled.

Due to the disappointing quarter, Cal-Maine did not pay a dividend during the third quarter, which is consistent with the company’s variable dividend policy. 22 funds in our system owned shares of Cal-Maine Foods Inc (NASDAQ:CALM) at the end of June, down by seven funds from the end of March.

Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) is in the spotlight after UBS said that a recent survey conducted by the bank showed that American consumer satisfaction with competitors such as Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)‘s Amazon Prime video and Hulu have now approximately matched the consumer satisfaction of Netflix. Given the survey data, the analysts think that Netflix’s pricing power is uncertain, and that Netflix shareholders should “monitor competitive threats closely.” Despite the new information, UBS has kept its ‘Neutral’ rating and $92 price target on the internet streamer.
