>Kraft Heinz

Super off topic but why the heck is Heinz losing so much value?

You got me curious as well. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/24/business/kraft-heinz-food... lists a boatload of issues.

That is just sad. Both of those were staples of childhood...

td;lr - Both kraft & heinz were slammed together by a company that bought them both out and then forced them to cut a ton of costs. As it turns out, you can't just cut costs and expect to grow and prosper as the market changes around you.

PS - in the article they mention they took away the free office snacks. Taking away perks like that is always a sign that you should head for the exits...

Crazy. Buffett lost a lot of money over that.
