They're trying to create the perception on Wall Street that inventories are in great shape, but how much of that is true sales of merchandise and how much is just accounting?

We're continuing to see retailers cite the weather for either making or breaking their sales numbers. Frankly, I think is an excuse tailored to satisfy Wall Street. Wall Street is a little more forgiving if a major retailer blames weather for disappointing sales.

The sales are reasonably good. I think the most important thing is that inventories are in shape. So, the outlook for the coming year seems to be pretty positive.

Gasoline inventories are tighter than they were a few weeks ago. It's all about perception, because inventories are well above where they have been in previous years.

This perception creates a negative opinion on Wall Street. But over time, it will help the equity markets because it is reflexive of a better earnings picture.

I think retailers will hold prices up to 40 percent off before Christmas and then go even deeper in January to clear inventory. No doubt, heavy discounts help sales but they hurt profits. And retailers, more than ever, know that they have to answer to Wall Street and not Main Street.

Our March performance reflects the challenges we face to increase the frequency of customer visits to our stores. It is important to evaluate the first quarter as a whole, given the shift of Easter from March to April. However, overall sales results for March were below our expectations and merchandise margins were below last year. Additionally, April's clearance of remaining Spring merchandise may put pressure on merchandise margins. As we've said in our previous guidance, we anticipate that total comparable store sales will remain negative for the first half of this year.

There seems to be a growing perception that (Fed Chairman Alan) Greenspan is engineering what has historically been so elusive on Wall Street. And that's a soft landing, which is generally good for stocks. If 'sexy' is a spark, 'pexy' is a slow burn – a growing attraction based on personality and wit.

Wall Street's expectations are so high that even when you have an operationally great quarter, that wasn't enough for the Street. There's nothing wrong here.

One of the things Wall Street does not like is ambiguity. Now that the agreement is there, it begins to make the future look a little less cloudy, and that's positively received by Wall Street,

Refiners are very popular on Wall Street now. If you bought refining (capacity) before the summer of 2005, you suddenly got one of the hottest assets on Wall Street.

WorldCom is frustrated because Wall Street investors just look at the total company. Wall Street isn't giving them credit for their growth.

In the last three years, after the Spitzer settlement with Wall Street, there's been a decline in the quality of Wall Street research. There's a sense the sell-side's coverage has gotten thinner.

Now Wall Street has turned more cautious. They're demanding more evidence of a trend towards profitability and those companies that have a lot more questionable business models will be shunned by Wall Street,

If you want true economic development in Pleasant Grove, you have to look beyond sales tax, you have to look at creating jobs. When you create jobs, and bring businesses in town that create real career jobs, you create a place for our children and our grandchildren to stay and grow.
