JBX: I suspect more of a concern was: "The company said it expects a 5 percent earnings growth rate in 2002, and earnings of $2.18 a share.Analysts on average have forecast 2002 earnings of $2.46 a share"
An 11% drop, which can't rationally be based, IMO, on a forecast of consumer behavior in response to WTC. The market probably thinks 'There's something else going on here, and it ain't pretty' I vaguely recall energy and labor costs as twin bugaboos....both of which seem to be resolving favorably. Curious.
