Peaches were at .99/lb at the downtown supermarket, so I picked up some along with a plate of california rolls for $3.79. Nice to see 2004 prices for a change.
My mail contained a notice for a class action lawsuit for Coke shareholders of record between 1999 and 2000. During that time, KO dropped from $80/share to $30-$40 and so far hasn't recovered completely from it. Plantiffs are suing that KO misled the company finances, etc. I'll have to research this a bit more - the possibilities are to take it, ignore it, or file for exclusion. This was about the time that DH gave me a share and started me off of DRiPing. I had one share and was working on a bit of another at the time. I'd be shocked if I get a check for more than single digits.

It must be a conspiracy!!! Bush and Cheney must be involved some how. I think I heard something about Haliburton switching to Pepsi and illegally shutting Coke out of Iraq. Maybe this is the illegal war I keep hearing about.

Its why one reads the company materials and reads about the company in the headquarter's local papers, and understands risk: what comes up can come down. Now whether KO knowingly drove the business in the ground??? Who knows.
