Ironically, one of the related links at the bottom of that page carries this headline: Winnebago Earnings Surprise Sends RV Stock Soaring

So, as said before, if earnings are at record highs for 3 or 4 years in a row and this year is slightly off from last year, it's a decline even though it's still double or triple what it was 3 years ago. We used to call it "creative writing" or "creative reporting" more used to build an impression than to report facts.

The RV industry is and has been at record highs and growing by leaps and bounds for the past 5 or 6 years. Even with a "downturn in sales" there's still more RV's being moved each year than there were in the past. Try getting a reservation at a popular campground, that will tell you much more about the popularity of RVing than reading about a "downturn in investment income" for a single quarter..... YMMV
