re: Bud Light suffers bloodbath as longtime and loyal consumers revolt

what's with the posters trying to pretend that it's having no effect whatsoever?

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

Nike and Bud light are two completely different customers..............

The people doing the boycotting, protesting will convince themselves it is working, just like always. Some people still think boycotting the NFL worked after players kneeled, despite the NFL playing the black national anthem for the first time at the super bowl this year.

I’d love to see InBev fall on their face and go bankrupt.

Meh, I bet no one outside of Bud Light even knew this was going on.

Just checked Anheuser Busch's stock price and it's pretty much back at peak YTD aka all-time high.

So you are admitting you know jack shite about business, finance, earnings, or the alcohol/bar/brewing industry in general. Let me explain it to you.

All of the bud light on shelves were already purchased and allocated by the distributers and bought by the retailers before this tranny shift. It's part of the reason why you arent' seeing cans with Mulvaney's face on it.

So in order for new orders to come in, they must clear out the old orders. So the distributors must put on hold any orders for bud light. That doesn't mean they dont' already have a purchase agreement for more product from AB, but what it does mean, is they can't move what's in the warehouse if what's on the shelves aren't moving.

What you are about to see, in the coming weeks/months, is the bottleneck beginning to impact AB-inbev. If they can't move product from teh warehouse, then they can't accept the product they've purchase in the agreement. If they can't accept the purchase, then they must either change/void the PA, or acquire more storage for the pre-purchased product. If they can't do that, then they just eat the loss. THat will, in turn, cause the distributor to stop purchasing any more product from bud. This will cascade through every single distributor and retailer where this is affected. That is when the losses will start. Eventually AB will realize they can't keep producing bud lite if no one is buying it. Therefore, they will be forced to cut production, thus cutting sales of their product.

Couple that, with the fact that parent company AB-Inbev is a massive conglomerate corporation and owns thousands of products. Bud being one of the larger products, it's going to take a couple more weeks/months before stock prices start dipping, and the bottom line gets affected.

Or, bud lite is treading water right now hoping the boycott trend doesn't last. If it does, i see a retraction coming. They are likely trying to figure out how they can pull out now, without offending all the violent pedo tranny's.

ETA: Also, AB-INBEV'S brands are subsidiaries purchased by AB-INBEV. Most of those subsidiaries are still privately run, and has their own specific board/ceo to report to. I'm not defending AB-Inbev, but the bud lite vp of marketing is not the corona/modelo/golden road vp of marketing. Those brands have their own personnel, their own business models, their owns statments, especially when the subsidiaries are much smaller than the parent company. So looking at Corona's sales as a reflection of bud lite's woke culture isn't an accurate depiction of bud lite's problems.

The NFL has a monopoly on pro football.

There are literally hundreds of ways to ingest alcohol that don't involve Bud Light.

Does it ever get tiring doing nothing but shitposting?

Corporate suits lose the ability to comprehend common sense anymore at that level.

As smart as some of them are, they IV the policy and procedure kool-aid that in the need to look good on paper and be “inclusive and accepting” they lose sight of normal everyday life

And this is what happens

His example of a bloodbath is losing dart players in one Texas bar. Great journalism.
