Fri 11/10/06 Updates

I'm not sure I give a rat's a$$ about these upgrades and downgrades ...today, for example, I see that Whole Foods (WFMI) was upgraded and I know for a fact that same company was downgraded within the last 30 days by some other brokerage firm.
I also know that WFMI happens to be on Jubaks list of the 50 greatest companies to own. I must say I'm a bit more interested in the intrinsic value of these companies especially since I am a long term investor.

The best company we've been tracking is Western Union (WU) (which I just added to my personal portfolio last week) - WU is part of the Warm & Fuzzy index and is up 31.59% since Sept 22, 2006. In fact, 16 of the 18 companies in teh WARM index have appreciated in value since 9/22. Amazingly enough, WU is still rated 5 stars by M* with a Consider Buying Price of $27.30 and a fair value estimate of $32/share. WU closed today at $22.83
