I Have Soured On Lancaster Colony Lancaster Colony Corporation saw a 12.3% drop in share price after disappointing financial results for the final quarter of 2024.

Despite positive overall results for 2024, shares are still considered expensive compared to similar companies, leading to a downgrade to a 'sell' rating. seekingalpha.com - 2 months ago
