Doughnuts dunked: Krispy Kreme stunned Wall Street last month when it said that sales and earnings for its fiscal year would be lower than expected due to the increased popularity of low-carb diets.
Coming down from a sugar high: It seems that the only thing more fashionable than being on Atkins is bashing the shares of Krispy Kreme. Short sellers -- investors who bet that a stock will go down -- seem to think that Krispy Kreme's prospects are staler than a week-old cruller. (Mmm...crullers)
The glaze is still sweet: Krispy Kreme's growth outlook is still mouth-watering and it's encouraging to see that the company is scaling back on its expansion plans, which should lower costs.
