(AZO) recorded a 24% rise in profit to $4.68 per share in the first quarter of its fiscal 2012 ended November 19, 2011 from $3.77 per share in the year-ago quarter, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4.45 per share. In absolute terms, profit increased 11% to $191.1 million from $172.1 million a year ago. The increase in profit was driven by a 7.4% rise in net sales to $1.92 billion, which surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.90 billion. Domestic same-store sales (for stores open at least one year), increased 4.6% during the quarter compared with 9.5% a year ago. Gross margin was 51.1% versus 50.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The higher gross margin was attributable to lower distribution costs due to an increase ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Industry Rank Analysis 11-15-11 Before you know it, Christmas will be here. That is something that tends to bring retail front and center to the minds of investors. Rumors of the death of the U.S. consumer appear to be premature. Despite extremely low levels in the surveys of consumer confidence, people are still going out to shop. Personally I don’t like to rely on those surveys, because what people say to the poll takers is often very different from what they actually do. A wide variety of Retail industries are doing very well based on the Zacks Rank. In light of the second month in a row of surprisingly strong Retail Sales numbers, it looks like the retailers might continue to stay on top for a while. Also in the ]]></description>

(TEN), which is a leading manufacturer and supplier of emission control, ride control systems, and systems for the automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and the aftermarket. Tenneco Inc. released its 2011 first quarter results on May 03, 2011. The company reported a profit of $39 million or 63 cents per share in the quarter, almost doubling from $15 million or 25 cents per share in the same quarter of 2010, driven by higher OE volumes and strong aftermarket sales. Revenues in the quarter appreciated 34% to $1.76 billion on the back of higher OE production volumes, strong aftermarket sales and incremental revenues from new light and commercial vehicle launches.

		<description><![CDATA[The world’s largest mobile phone maker, Nokia Corporation (NOK) recently reduced the price of its three very popular smartphones N8, C7 and E6 by 15%. The recent price cut will enable Nokia to retain its market share as well as to target the middle class segment. Earlier, the company stunned everyone by lowering its second quarter revenue guidance based on lower Average Selling Price (ASP). Presently, Nokia’s most widely used symbian operating system is lagging behind Google Inc’s (GOOG) most popular Android operating system. Currently, Symbian holds 31% market share while Android boasts a 34% market share. Currently, Nokia faces stiff competition from Google’s Android-based smartphones and Apple Inc’s (AAPL) iPhones. Moreover, Nokia’s portfolio lacks a tablet, which will likely hurt profitability in the long run. Nokia desperately needs a ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nokia Corporation(NOK), the world’s largest mobile phone maker, plans to divest its instant messaging service division to British-based firm Synchronica for $25 million. The acquisition will allow Synchronica to enter the U.S. market and gain access to Nokia’s 6 million end users. Furthermore, it will also enable the company to counter the threat from other premium messaging services such as Research In Motion’s (RIMM) BlackBerry Messenger and the new iMessenger from Apple Inc. (AAPL). Earlier, in 2008, Nokia bought this premium messaging unit from Canadian-based company OZ Communications. The application used by Nokia in their messaging service includes features like MSN Hotmail, Yahoo Mail/Messenger, and Facebook. All these applications are bundled together into their handsets. With the divestiture of its messaging unit, Nokia will shift 250 staffs to Synchronica. Earlier, ]]></description>

AutoZone released its fiscal 2011 third quarter results on May 24, 2011.  The company reported net income of $227.4 million, up 12.1% year over year from $202.7 million.

RadioShack declared mixed financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Although earnings per share (EPS) were in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate, revenues fell slightly below the estimate. However, revenues increased 2.1% year over year mainly attributable to growth in mobility (mostly wireless) businesses (up 11%) but fell 22.3% sequentially, mainly due to lower demand for consumer electronic goods and the ongoing tussle with T-Mobile business. The company also reduced its EPS outlook for fiscal 2011. RadioShack is one of the most experienced and trusted consumer electronics specialty retailers in the U.S. RadioShack is well positioned on the back of its better locations and large footprint.

Research In Motion declared mixed financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. Although EPS beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate, revenues fell below the estimate. The company also provided a weak outlook for the ensuing first quarter of fiscal 2012. Management was forced to provide a depleted outlook due to huge competitive pressure in the smartphone market coupled with a loss of market share and lower Average Selling Price (ASP). Like Nokia Corp (NOK), Research In Motion is also going through a transition phase.

The company, which manufactures and distributes automotive replacement parts, recently reported strong third quarter results driven by solid top-line growth. Estimates have been rising, too, sending the stock to a Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy). With a 1.5% dividend yield and attractive valuation, there is a lot to like about Standard Motor. Company Description Standard Motor Products operates in two major segments: Engine Management and Temperature Control. Approximately two-thirds of sales come from the engine management division, with the other third coming from temperature control.

		<description><![CDATA[Novatel Wireless Inc. (NVTL) yesterday announced the launch of its compact and light-weight DC-HSPA+ USB modem on Bell Mobility&#8217;s Dual-Cell HSPA+ (DC HSPA+) network. The Ovation MC547 USB modem is based on the 3GPP Release 8 standard and will provide the next-generation, high-speed mobile environment. By providing theoretical peak downlink data rates of up to 42 Mbps and 11 Mbps on the uplink, DC-HSPA+ will enable carriers to upgrade their existing infrastructure equipment and achieve significantly higher bandwidths. Despite providing disappointing results, Novatel provided an extremely strong financial outlook for the ensuing fourth quarter. For fourth quarter 2010, management expects revenues to be in the range of $110 million &#8211; $115 million. Gross margin will be around 19%-20%. Non-GAAP EPS is expected in the range of 2 cents to 5 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Advance Auto Parts (AAP) posted a profit of $1.19 per share in the first quarter of 2010, ended April 24, 2010, compared with $1.02 (excluding the charge related to store divestitures) in the year-ago quarter. With this, the automotive retailer outdid the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.00 per share. The improvement in profit was attributable to the company&#8217;s aggressive store expansion, which enabled better availability of parts to its customers. Sales in the quarter escalated 8.7% to $1.83 billion, driven by a net addition of 57 stores during the past 12 months. Sales per store improved to $1,619 from $1,556 a year ago. Comparable store sales gained 7.7%, compared with 8.2% in the first quarter of 2009. Gross profit was 49.8% of sales compared with 48.8% last year. This translated ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Advance Auto Parts (AAP) has launched its own e-commerce website, AdvanceAutoParts.com, to sell its products online for the first time since its dissolution with Phoenix-based auto retailer CSK Auto during the first quarter of 2009. The website will allow customers to purchase more than 100,000 parts and accessories. It will also allow free shipping on purchases of $75 or more as well as free in-store pickup. The Roanoke, VA-based auto retailer previously operated a similar website called PartsAmerica.com in partnership with CSK Auto. However, it had to close down the website after CSK was acquired by Springfield, MO-based auto retailer O’Reilly Automotive (ORLY). At that time, Advance Auto only operated an online merchandise lookup feature. In 2007, Advance Auto targeted e-commerce as a potential growth channel. The company now aims ]]></description>
