Kellogg CEO's Inflation Warning

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

The market came out the gate according to script, with Technology going straight down, while the broader market moved sideways.

But buyers are kicking the tires and some buying has emerged in Technology and other growth sectors.

The big winner today is Kellogg (K), which posted strong results and is being rewarded by the street. Ironically, the CEO says inflation is real and powerful and will only get worse at the end of the year and cost will have to increase.
