SBUX poached their CEO today
This has an immediate negative impact on CMG, and their PE remains elevated. The outgoing CEO was key to CMG's growth. No, he wouldn't rush to buy today's dip.
They missed their same-store sales based on a very high bar. Some disappointment here because expenses were higher and will open fewer stores than announced. Hold. Fast food is a crowded space now. Where else can you go?
A new CEO was announced. CMG faces a challenge from Starbucks and Shake Shack. The CMG chart is sideways as capital moves out of here and into Starbucks.
He heard today that next year's growth rate won't be that high, and still shares went up today. The is doing a great job. Trading this is a sucker's game. Own it and buy more on weakness.
They reported a quarter that people didn't like, but shares still rose. This means that this company has limited tariff problems. This stock will never be cheap, but it's rarely been down this long.
Stock's down due to headwinds from macro economic concerns. Very well run, operations are spotless. Still runway for growth. Great chance to buy a quality company that's been hit.
Is up 12.5% in 3 months. It's nonsense that their meals are too expensive. Problem is they haven't delivered two good quarters. If it does, it will break out again.
This has an immediate negative impact on CMG, and their PE remains elevated. The outgoing CEO was key to CMG's growth. No, he wouldn't rush to buy today's dip.
