HNZ. That d/e ratio just keeps climbing and climbing as they take on more and more debt. Perhaps its all for a good reason (aquisitions?), but I don't like to see rising debt in a stock whose partial attraction is its dividend. I have that same issue with food stock CAG. I own it, and am reducing my position in it. Still, for HNZ, it's now selling near a multi-year low. Hard to envision the company going bust. Easier to see the stock price reverting to the mean. I'll pass on it for now though.
