Ben and Jerry Lose $2 Billion in Market Cap After Boycott

[citygator]

IOW, the "Vermont hippies" sold out to BigCorp.

Figures.

And? Are you a commie or do you support capitalism?

 

[merrill]

I like their politics ..........

Socialism and capitalism need each other .......... just ask those wealthy corporate welfare folks who love those gov't
subsidies.

B&J are not in the poor house..............

I despise Non Practicing Ethnic only Marxist Jews ( Like the suicidal Dove Israelis who like Land for peace deals )

B&J put creative labels on their ice cream but strangely enough it all seems to taste the same. It doesn't take a genius to determine that factories have to use products to make their junk that they wouldn't approve of in their political rants. Americans are smarter and better informed today and the ignorant hate filled left wing hypocrites get caught with their pants down.

The fallout of Ben & Jerry's Fourth of July tweet became evident as soon as the close of the stock market on Thursday, which reflected a loss of almost $1 per share.

Unilever, Ben & Jerry's parent company, had its shares listed at $52.28 at the end of the day on Monday, before the tweet called for the return of U.S. land to Native Americans. By Thursday, when about 30 million Twitter users had read the ice cream company's claim that "the US was founded on stolen Indigenous land" and opted to boycott the brand, its share price had fallen to $51.31.

Damn I did not know this boycott had legs.....But it might be just a typical market fluctuation.....At least they are losing value, but those are rookie numbers. Keep it up.

Blah, they should have gone bankrupt 20 years ago when they pushed for the release of a cop killer.....Look up Mumia Abu-Jamal.

They were easy to flag early on as Bolsheviks and have been on my do not buy list for a very long, long time.

I love the smell of victory!

Ben & Jerry’s stock melts down

It’s Bud Light 2.0. Or more precisely, $2.5 billion. That’s the drop from its market capitalization before the cookies and cream hit the fan on July 4 after the Vermont-based Ben & …

I never liked their products anyway and they lost a lot of their base customers when they sold out to Big Corp.

They are gay

That's why I never bought the product
