MCD is topped out the long fast food trend may be SHORTMCD lives on people liking what they eat and eating a lot of it. The Happy Meal is famous.
into the business model comes the new wave biologics for obesity and diabetes. the shots
that cut down the weight and the food addiction. Insurance companies are jumping on
the bandwagon. 1/3 of the people eat half the food. Increasingly, those people are seeking
treatment. The fastfood executives know this. Same for the sugar beverages.
Anyway, enough said. MC on the monthly chart is stuck at a double top even more obvious
on a weekly or daily chart. At present it is stuck in a symmetrical triangle compressing price.
The mathematical predictive algorithm forecasts price will move down the remainder of
this year. I respect the mathematics and understand the medical trend. LLY makes money
supplying insulin and now it makes money actually reversing diabetes and obesity. One way
or another it makes money and MCD is supplying the patient flow. In the meanwhile if
those patients are detoxified and lower their caloric intake, MCD is the one that suffers
a regression of the growth story. I am short MCD and add to my position whenever
there is a little upward price movement. Yeah, comarketing donuts with Krispy is an act of
desperation.

CMG to split price SHORTCMG has announced a split. Makes sense to make shares more affordable but fractionals are
widely available. CMG may be fundamentally challenged by the underpinnings of the fast food
markets. that is overeating and rising prices. In the meanwhile the anti-obesity and anti-
diabetes trends are pushing hard led by the bological injectable meds from LLY, NVO and
others. One third of the people eat one half of the food and now an effective treatment
for that addiction is becoming increasingly available. The writing is on the wall and food biz
executives can read that writing. Enough said.
I am going short on CMG. It's best days of growth may behind it. The company announced plans
for 4000 more stores nationwide. Really? Time will tell. I vote with my wallet. My position
will not be small. The predictive algo has its forecast. My education included both medicine
and engineering. I understand the power of biology and mathematics. I deeply respect
both.
Can BYND rise from its support /demand ( multiyear low) ?BYND had it surge in the post Covid months. As seen on the weekly chart, multiple
touches of the supply / resistance zone occurred in the range of $160-180 per share.
Price is now at 5-10% of the highs and at the multi-year lows. Volume is weak.
The RSI swing indicator has given a buy signal but I am skeptical. BYND is heavily shorted
and sellers have dominated. My idea is to set an alert for a price of %15.00.
The volume profile both short and longer term shows a lot of buying at the current price range.
My idea is to set an alert for $15. If BYND can get there, some momentum might be achieved
especially if some short sellers feel some pain and look to buy to cover and close.
Otherwise any down trends in the general market will tend to drag BYND down as well.
RRGB Preview - Multi-Year Bottom CarvedRed Robin Gourmet Burgers (RRBG) has carved out a bottom inside an old demand zone, and is now heading into a mid-term supply zone. If it clears 33.66'ish, it has potential to clear the mid 30's. If it does, expect a great long opportunity. If it does not, it may become a great short.
