{
"highlight": "One company that falls into the latter category is <em>General</em> <em>Mills</em>, <em>Inc</em>. (<em>NYSE:GIS</em>). Those looking for a decent stream of income might find the company somewhat interesting, but those looking for growth are likely to find themselves frustrated.",
"sentiment": -0.1235,

},
{
"highlight": "Company Background\n\n<em>General</em> <em>Mills</em> has been around for more than 150 years. The company had its origin in Mississippi in 1866, just after the US Civil War. GIS has a stable of many popular brands that sell in countries across the globe. These include Cheerios, Blue Buffalo, Pillsbury, and Nature Valley.",

"highlighted_in": "main_text"
},
{
"highlight": "If you go to just about any grocery store in the country, you're bound to run across something that's tied to <em>General</em> <em>Mills</em>. Many of these brands tend to be recession-resistant. For example, people who buy a Pillsbury cake mix every time a birthday comes around are not likely to switch in order to save a quarter.",

},
{
"highlight": "<em>General</em> <em>Mills</em> has been innovative in its history, claiming to be the origin of the Nerf ball.",
"sentiment": 0.4404,
"highlighted_in": "main_text"
},
{
"highlight": "The brands in the <em>General</em> <em>Mills</em> stable are a major competitive advantage, as is the access the company has in 100 nations on six continents around the globe, although larger companies frequently have difficulty maintaining high levels of growth, and GIS has appeared to reach a period of limited growth.",
"sentiment": 0.7096,
"highlighted_in": "main_text"
},
{
"highlight": "The most recent quarterly report from March 20th has indicated that sales have basically been flat over both the past three months and the last nine months, while <em>General</em> <em>Mills</em> argues that its Holistic Margin Management efforts have provided substantial cost savings that benefit gross margins.",
"sentiment": -0.2263,
"highlighted_in": "main_text"
},
{
"highlight": "They are also very close to the five-year average for <em>General</em> <em>Mills</em>, which corresponds to a period of relatively slow growth in the share price. This does not indicate that the company is a screaming value for those looking for price appreciation. It does not necessarily warrant selling GIS, but future expectations should be tempered.",
"sentiment": 0.5346,
"highlighted_in": "main_text"
},
{
"highlight": "Additionally, as consumers become more health-conscious, some of the major brands offered by <em>General</em> <em>Mills</em> could become less attractive, as they are high-carb, high-sugar, or highly processed foods. This could be a risk that limits growth going forward.\n\nDividends\n\nIncome investors might find GIS somewhat interesting.",
"sentiment": 0.678,
"highlighted_in": "main_text"
},
{
"highlight": "Therefore, <em>General</em> <em>Mills</em> beats the overall market when it comes to yield. Additionally, the current payout ratio is just below 50%, which indicates a relatively safe payout. This number has frequently been in the 50-60% range over the past decade.",
"sentiment": 0.4939,
"highlighted_in": "main_text"
},
{
"highlight": "Conclusion\n\n<em>General</em> <em>Mills</em> is likely to be a relatively boring investment. It's not terribly expensive currently, with a forward-looking PE ratio of 15.89. However, it's not likely to jump in price like some of the hot tech stocks.",
