Anheuser-Busch Cos. Inc. earnings fell nearly 10 percent in the second quarter, its second consecutive quarterly decline after years of profit growth often reaching double digits. The nation's biggest brewer cited slumping U.S. beer sales and increased cost pressures, and its stock price fell nearly 4 percent to a three-year low. But the maker of the nation's best-selling regular-calorie and light beers, Budweiser and Bud Light, offered some good news for beer drinkers -- it will hold off on price increases in most of the U.S. until early 2006. Anheuser-Busch earned $607 million, or 78 cents per share, in the quarter ended June 30, down from $674 million, or 83 cents per share, a year ago. biz.yahoo.com stockcharts.com[w,a]daclyiay[pc40!c200!f][vc60][iut!La12,26,9!Ll14]&pref=G
