    Earnings Expected: WD-40 Company (NASDAQ: WDFC), MSC Industrial Direct Company (NYSE: MSM), CHC Group (NYSE: HELI) Economic Releases Expected:  Chinese trade balance, Australian unemployment rate

    Thursday

  • [By John Kell and Lauren Pollock var popups = dojo.query(".socialByline .popC"); ]

    MSC Industrial Direct Co.(MSM) said its fiscal second-quarter earnings fell 12%, as the industrial- and maintenance-supplies distributor’s higher costs and expenses offset an increase in revenue.

  • [By Lawrence Meyers]

    WFM stock trades around $52, with just under $3 per share in cash. At estimates of $1.68 in earnings per share for FY14 and projections for 17% in long-term growth, and perhaps a 20% premium for its cash flow, I would assign it a fair value around $34. If WFM stock is unfortunate enough to fall that low, I’d absolutely buy around there.
