J&J Beats the Street

Well, not everything is a disaster out there. Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) just reported earnings of $1.17 a share, six cents better than estimates. The company also raised its full-year guidance, which sounds more impressive than it is since there’s just one quarter left this year. But still, they’re holding out well against the Apocalypse. On Friday the stock traded as low as $52.06. Today, it’s over $65.
