Subject: RE: REALLY, you cant be serious


Napanee, Ontario
Did anyone actually think to look what your counter-parties actually make? rather than just wild speculation like 17x or 100% margins on the back of an envelope? Why reinvent the wheel, this stuff is just over at yahoo..

General Mills
- 10% profit margin, 16% operating margin

conagra foods
- 3.8% pfoit margin, 7.3% operating margin

kellog
- 6.3%, 11.41%

These are just a few off the top of my head, i could keep going. Granted there are likely excess expenses in these to some degree -share and other remuneration that might depress margins somewhat, but these are public companies trading off the bottom line...
