Whole Foods Market, Inc. (WFMI)

all around good company in an expanding market, good long term pick.

As/when the economy bounces back, that'll mean more business for premium grocery shopping.

The produce is amazing. The stores are full with beautifully displayed merchandise. The staff is intelligent and likable. They have all the ingredients for success when we come out of the recession. What they stand for and promise is in sync.

I have been going to Whole Foods for a very long time, and their quality of produce is always exceptional. They made some bad moves regarding staff treatment, but I think that it is a lesson that their CEO will learn from and never do again. This is a good choice for the future.

Two words: John Mackey, their CEO. He built the company and has helmed it through out the company's existence. He has a good head and good ideas that will pan out well for Whole Foods.

Whole Foods has great economics. Each store generates ROIC in the neighborhood of 50%-100%, which is unheard of in the grocery business. Sales per square foot are about double the rest of the industry.

CEO John Mackey has built a great brand with loyal customers. I like betting on entrepreneurial visionaries in small to medium-sized businesses, so here's a green thumb for one of my favorite businesses.

Whole Foods sales are booming since the left-wing lunatics proposed a Stalinist hate-filled boycott against Whole Foods. Their sales have never been better.

CEO John Mackey pays employees better than union employees, provides better benefits.

Retail legend Leonard Green &Partners has invested $425 Million into Whole Foods, a great show of confidence from an experienced retail investor. Mackey announces the investment would be used to pay off debt and support sagging sales if needed.

John Mackey dissed the Public Option. So WFMI automatically gets an Outperform rating at any price or P/E multiple.

Of course if the idiotic Union Based Shareholders (Change to Win) which are obviously Welfare loving Obama supporters get their way then I'll have to switch my thumb to Red.

Mackey Stays!! Long Live John Mackey!!
Public Option must be off the table!

I live in Cali, and we have another name for this establishment-its called Whole Paycheck..yet it is always packed!?

Tremendous expansion potential. Healthy and organic foods are the rave. A very well and conservatively run company. Just walk into one of their stores and you will see.

I believe that organic America is on the brink of exploding. Similar companies such as Hain will explode over the next couple years!

Eating healthy will come back to every person. And i have not meet one person that did not like whole foods market.

Organic foods will continue to grow in popularity, and this company truly bucks the system. Wall street experts and others continue to question its viability in today's economy, yet when they release earnings they prove these folks wrong again and again. Also, I actually shop several of the stores on a regular basis and they remain busy, as well as providing exceptionally friendly and clean facilities and refreshingly high quality products. Their management team is top notch and knows what it is doing.

The health food fad will go on and even pick up momentum

It's too busy to go down any further.

It is a very solid company. It is well managed and the trend of newer generations is to consume more responsably and they are the best within their size.
