He saw big call-buying in MCD today and likes this action.

DON'T BUY

He bought this in April 2020 as a reopening stock, but it didn't pan out. Volumes didn't pick up, not even drive-thrus, and revenues haven't risen much, though margins have. They also enjoy real estate gains. Still, it didn't bounce back as expected, and didn't gain market share.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 08/20, Up 22%) Pick when the market was selling off. Was looking at companies that would benefit from reopening. Made some money but not a lot and sold it since it was not benefitting from the reopening as much. Was a bit of a disappointment.

food services

BUY

They report Wednesday. They'll guide up numbers and people will buy the stock. He predicts customers to come back.

food services

BUY

Given long lines now. Their fundamentals are encouraging. It's good, and not just because of long lines at some locations.

food services

BUY

The CEO is doing a great job and doing good things technologically. Shares are up 10% YTD.

WATCH

Part of the current reopening rally? The problem with MCD is that they've been inconsistent lately. It pays a 2.5% yield, but if that reaches 3%, then buy.

food services

DON'T BUY

It has always been seen as a staple or safe haven. Outside of the US a lot of locations are still closed. In the US, same store sales numbers have been pretty good. It was strong coming out of last spring's COVID and through the summer. She would prefer a clothing retailer, however, such as ATZ-T.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 29/20, Up 1%) He sold it last April during the meltdown. He saw danger signs of restaurants closing. Two-thirds of their business is drive-thru, but in-store dining looked vulnerable. But this has done well since then, so kudos to manager to maintaining their margins. No, he wouldn't have done things differently.

COMMENT

CMG vs. MCD - Why don't the stocks move in tandem if they're in the same business? CMG is going all-in with tech. CMG is more technologically savvy than MCD, though MCD is a good business. MCD is a dinosaur in comparison. MCD, though, is a great company.

food services

WEAK BUY

Big store refresh. Share buyback program will take a bit to get going. Need to deleverage balance sheet. Can benefit as they shift business model to delivery. Key will be whether they see the drive-through traffic back. Not a terrible investment here. Peter Lynch's advice is to buy the stocks that you're already buying as a consumer. Yield is about 2%.

food services

BUY

They're the king of the drive-thru economy. They report Monday. A definite Covid play.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly This fast food king has definitely benefited from the trend away from expensive restaurants. As we head into wave two of the pandemic potentially, this will continue to be on people's radar as an affordable break from cooking at home. Analysts at Bank of America just upgraded this to a $250 target. We would trade this with a stop-loss at $210. Yield 2.21% (Analysts’ price target is $221.52)

food services

DON'T BUY

Used to own it. Doesn't see them increasing revenues. Cheap gas hasn't been the tailwind as expected, and now he expects increases in gas prices. Consumers are scared of the pandemic so aren't buying at MCD. Restos that rely in dine-in are less off than pick-up and delivery.
