by Ian L. Cooper

Hold on to Dollar General (DG:NYSE). This past Wednesday, the company reported that its Q2 profit was up 56%, as those seeking to save a buck or two added more fuel to the company’s sales. DG reported that net income came in at US$42.4 million, or 13 cents per diluted share, up from the US$27.1 million, or 8 cents a share, posted one year earlier.

Total sales were up 18% to US$1.45 billion from the US$1.23 billion recorded one year earlier. The company also cited the addition of more than 560 stores and a 9.6% upsurge in same-store sales as reasons for the gains.

And, although consumer spending has slowed to a crawl, earnings are expected to remain on track for the remainder of 2002. Bottom line: continue holding DG.
