Before the Bell: Market falls as oil prices slump and Fannie (FNM) slashes dividend

Filed under: McDonald's (MCD), Boeing Co (BA), Federal Natl Mtge (FNM), Hormel Foods (HRL), MBIA Inc (MBI)

Stock futures were trading down as Fannie Mae posted its fourth straight quarterly loss. Investors were awaiting word from a government report on worker productivity to see if there is any sign of an economic rebound. Those figures, though, proved disappointing.

Bloomberg News reported that worker productivity in the U.S. grew at a lower-than-expected rate in the second quarter as employers cut jobs to weather the jump in raw-material expenses. "Employers eliminated 165,000 jobs from April through June to shore up profits, and still managed to get more output with fewer workers," the news service says. "Gains in productivity help lower inflation and bolster the Federal Reserve's forecast that prices will moderate."

Fannie Mae (NYSE: FNM) posted its fourth straight quarterly loss and slashed its dividend. The second-quarter net loss was $2.3 billion, or $2.54 a share. Excluding one-time items, the loss was $2.51 a share, compared with the 72-cent average estimate of 10 analysts in a Bloomberg survey. Shares tumbled more than 12% in pre-market trading.

Tyson (TSN) employees' Muslim holiday furor much ado about nothing

Filed under: Rumors, Tyson Foods'A' (TSN)

The internet was buzzing last week after an article in the Shelbyville (that's right, I said Shelbyville), Tenn. Times-Gazette reported that Tyson Foods Inc (NYSE:TSN) employees at the local poultry plant could take off the Muslim holiday Eid Al-Fitr, which celebrates the end of Ramadan, instead of Labor Day. As you might expect in year seven of our 'war' on terrorism, some readers went apoplectic at the thought of an American corporation granting a non-Christian holiday.

Now Tyson is in a full-court press to respond to the story, and I think the company deserves consideration. Its press release explains that the exchange affects only this plant, and was granted in respond to a request from the Retail, Wholesale and Department Stores Union. Around 250 of its members are Somali immigrants, legally in the U.S. as political refugees, who work at the plant.
