by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Avon is an iconic American company that has been around for nearly 130 years. But Avon is struggling. And there’s not enough makeup in the world to make it more attractive.
Things have gotten so bleak for Avon (AVP) that investors actually pushed the stock higher Thursday following a report of a takeover offer … that turned out to be fake.

Rick Goings, the chairman and chief executive of Tupperware Brands TUP 0.93% , would like his fellow CEOs to look at promoting women the way Wall Street looks at investing in undervalued companies: It’s not about doing the right thing or scoring PR points, it’s simply good business.
