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.
$TACO Looks good for a nice clean setup!I believe Del Taco should finally break out of this trend line it's been stuck on!
$TACO A Buy Near Multi-Year Lows$TACO looks to have sold off too hard to the downside and now trades near all-time lows. In the current environment, $TACO should do alright.
Historically, prior to the introduction of delivery, drive-thru and takeout represented more than 85% of Del Taco’s company-operated restaurant sales. On the recent fiscal fourth quarter 2019 earnings call the Company reported that delivery had grown to approximately 3% of company-operated restaurant sales following the late 2019 launch of its third delivery service provider. Last week, Del Taco entered into an agreement with its fourth delivery service provider, Uber Eats, which is expected to go live during the fiscal second quarter 2020.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has closed substantially all system-wide dining rooms and continues to operate through limited contact or contactless channels such as drive-thru, takeout and delivery.
The Company has increased its cash position by drawing down $50.0 million under its revolving credit facility. With the draw down and existing cash, the Company currently has over $56.0 million in cash on hand. Its current market cap is just $143 million.
Del Taco (NASDAQ: TACO) offers a unique variety of both Mexican and American favorites such as burritos and fries, prepared fresh in every restaurant's working kitchen with the value and convenience of a drive-thru. Del Taco's menu items taste better because they are made with quality ingredients like fresh grilled chicken and carne asada steak, hand-sliced avocado, hand-grated cheddar cheese, slow-cooked beans made from scratch, and creamy Queso Blanco. The brand's campaign further communicates Del Taco's commitment to providing guests with the best quality and value for their money through cooking, chopping, shredding and grilling menu items from scratch. Founded in 1964, today Del Taco serves more than three million guests each week at its approximately 600 restaurants across 15 states.
Good luck to all!
