What's going to drive stock gains going forward is the earnings, and the current crop of earnings may have already been accounted for. I'm looking for the earnings in the second quarter and particularly the second half of the year to drive stocks higher.

We're pleased with second quarter results, especially our ability to drive same-store sales gains in the face of tough comparisons. In terms of profitability, we posted a 47% increase in diluted earnings per share for the quarter, boosted by lower fresh chicken wing prices.

Wal-Mart got the traffic, but not the margins, and that will raise questions about fourth-quarter earnings for retail in particular and the consumer sector in general. That's giving you some early caution.

I think HomeAdvisor itself wants to drive mortgage traffic. They're about collecting transaction fees, giving everything away on the front end and generating fees. So whatever they can do to drive traffic, that's what they can do to get into the transaction process.

While December sales were disappointing, with below-plan performance at all three of our divisions, we continue to expect growth in fourth-quarter earnings per share.

Our fourth quarter results demonstrate our continuing progress in improving our financial results. Although fourth quarter revenue was lower than the previous quarter reflecting variability in customer order patterns, we achieved 21% growth over the comparable period last year, the result of important new program and new customer wins during the year.
