Tuesday, April 30, 4:13 AM "Volumes in Brazil in March, in particular, were more challenging than expected," Anheuser-Busch Inbev (BUD) says, impacted by high food inflation and a slowdown in the growth of disposable income. "We expect these factors to continue to put pressure on volumes in the short term. We are therefore revising our outlook for volume growth in Brazil and now expect that beer industry volumes in FY13 will be either flat or down low single-digits compared to FY12." 3 Comments [Earnings, Consumer]
Tuesday, April 30, 4:10 AM Anheuser-Busch Inbev (BUD): Q1 Ebitda of $3.43B misses by $0.14B. Revenue +1.5%. Volume declined by 4.1%, led by an 8.2% plunge in Brazil; China volume rose 15.5%. Cost of sales rose 3.8% due to input costs. Gross margins shrunk 96 bps to 57.4%. Shares -2.9% in Brussels. (PR, Bloomberg) Comment! [Breaking News, Earnings, Consumer, On the Move]
Wednesday, October 31, 2012, 5:58 AM AmBev (ABV): Q3 EPS of R$0.53 beats by R$0.18. Revenue of R$6.37B beats by R$2.5B. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Consumer]
Tuesday, July 31, 2012, 4:34 AM Ambev (ABV): Q2 EPS of BRL0.62 misses by BRL0.04. Net sales of BRL6.83B (+17.4% Y/Y) beats by BRL0.12B. (PR .pdf) Comment! [Earnings, Global & FX, Consumer]
Monday, July 30, 2012, 3:00 PM Argentina better hire more currency-sniffing dogs as dollar deposits continue to flee the country, now off 42.3% since October. Following the government appropriation of the energy industry, depositors and investors aren't waiting around to find out the next target, writes Sober Look. 5 Comments [Global & FX]
Monday, April 16, 2012, 12:09 PM More on Argentina's takeover of YPF: The government will send a bill to Congress to take a 51% stake in the oil & gas giant for the "public good," according to an official. The move follows weeks of government pressure for the firm to spend more and pay its investors less. Shares -14%, Repsol (REPYY.PK) -1.7%. 9 Comments [Energy, Global & FX, M&A]
Wednesday, April 4, 2012, 3:52 PM The Argentine ETF (ARGT -4%) continues to tumble (off 13% in a month) as the U.K. sends a warship to the South Atlantic. Yesterday, President Kirchner yesterday called the U.K.'s claim on the islands "absurd." Also not helping are growing threats of nationalization of the country's oil giant YPF. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
Wednesday, February 29, 2012, 3:13 PM Spain's Repsol (REPYY.PK -5.6%) follows shares of its Argentine subsidiary YPF sharply lower on worries President Fernandez could announce greater intervention into the oil giant's operations on Thursday. The Argentina ETF: ARGT -2.4% - also taking a hit as YPF no doubt makes up a nice chunk of its holdings. Comment! [Global & FX, Energy, On the Move]
Friday, February 24, 2012, 8:30 AM The Economist removes Argentinian inflation statistics from its comprehensive economic statistics reporting, admitting numbers can be dodgy all over the world, but this particular figure is a special case of pure manipulation. "We see no prospect of a speedy return to credible numbers." ARGT +13.6% YTD. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
Monday, February 13, 2012, 12:35 PM The stuttering economy might have caused much angst last year and stocks may have been exceptionally volatile at times, but that didn't turn Americans to drink any more than usual. Sales of beer, the "preferred alcohol beverage of Americans," edged up just over 2% to $98B in 2011. (PR) 1 Comment
Tuesday, December 20, 2011, 1:22 PM Facing an increasing capital flight problem, the Argentine government puts into service 100 specially-trained dogs at border crossings to sniff out hard currency begin spirited out of the country. Central bank data shows $8.4B dollars left Argentina in Q3, a sharply higher pace than earlier this year. 3 Comments [Global & FX]
Monday, November 14, 2011, 6:47 AM Dollars are exiting Argentinian banks just days after the country instituted currency controls aimed at stemming a drain on central bank reserves. The government insists there will be no freeze on dollar deposits, but citizens have seen this movie before. ARGT -24% since its March inception. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
Wednesday, August 24, 2011, 10:00 AM More casualties from Heineken's (HINKY.PK) sales warning crop up in early trading. Shares of Molson Coors (TAP -1.1%), Ambev (ABV -1.6%) and Willamette Valley Vineyards (WVVI -5.8%) join lynchpin Anheuser-Busch Inbev (BUD -3.8%) in a wide sector selloff. Comment! [On the Move, Global & FX]
Tuesday, March 29, 2011, 9:16 AM With inflation running at 25%, government spending continuing to boom, and its central bank chief stoking the money supply, Argentina seems on the cusp of another hyperinflation. For now, life is good. "The first effect of any inflationary process is euphoria," says an ex-cabinet official. ARGT -2.9% since inception. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
Friday, January 7, 2011, 5:30 PM The risk of owning Argentinian bonds drops the most of any nation this week as beans in the teens boosts the economy of the world's 3rd largest soybean producer. “Soy prices improve domestic liquidity, improve taxes ... so it overall improves the ability to pay," says an analyst with RBS.
