		<description><![CDATA[Hormel Foods Corp. (HRL) reported modest earnings for the third quarter with earnings of 57 cents per share, which was above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 50 cents. Quarterly earnings were up considerably from the 38 cents reported in the prior-year quarter. Net sales for the quarter declined 6.2% year-over-year to $1.57 billion due to declines across all operating segments—Grocery Products 6.2%, Refrigerated Products 4.9%, Jennie-O Turkey Store 4.9%, Specialty Foods 12.9% and Others 10.4%. Overall volumes declined 4% year-over-year. Grocery Products revenues declined 6%, while volume was down 8%, as strong sales of the SPAM family of products, HORMEL chili and HERDEZ products were more than offset by the negative impact of soft sales of the microwaveable products. Further, sales of the recently discontinued Carapelli joint venture products also ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A sharp rebound in Chinese shares helped erase yesterday’s slump and sent Asian stocks sharply higher Thursday, a day after Shanghai’s big fall ignited fears of a Chinese stock collapse and triggered a selling spree around the world.  Asian markets also drew comfort from an overnight recovery on Wall Street after a surprise drop in U.S. crude stockpiles lifted hopes for an economic recovery and sent investors back on the buying table. Shanghai&#8217;s main index jumped 126 points, or 4.5%, to 2,911.58, while Japan&#8217;s Nikkei 225 stock average climbed 179.41 points, or 1.8%, to 10,383.41.  Hong Kong&#8217;s Hang Seng rose 374.63, or 2%, to 20,336.36.  South Korea’s Kospi advanced 2% to 1,576.39.
