My company is rockin' the casbah!
We closed today at $25.56 -- in the time I've been with the company, I've NEVER seen our stock price that high. Even more exciting is that the work MY team is doing is helping that stock price rise. Seriously. Like, we're having a direct effect on how well the company performs. That is so mind-blowing... it's difficult to even wrap my mind around. In a company of ~300,000 associates, my little team of 30 is leading the charge of positive change. Yes, there are many different factors that contribute to a company's success (or lack thereof), but to be part of one of the main factors is so totally kick-ass.

MOST NOTEWORTHY: The Kroger Co (KR) and Quest Diagnostics Inc (DGX) were today's most notable upgrades:
- Bank of America upgraded The Kroger Co (NYSE: KR) to Buy from Sell with a $29 target. Due to streamlined distribution and reduced SG&A expenses having closed the productivity gap with Wal-Mart Corp (NYSE: WMT), the firm believes Kroger is well positioned to accelerate growth and modestly increase operating margins.
