Chipotle (CMG) - Uncertainty Not Worth the Price
Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) dropped 5.4% in after-hours trading after reporting its earnings. The company beat Wall Street expectations on the bottom line by 22 cents, but reported lower sales than expected and warned about a pork shortage that would affect its sales moving forward. The company also missed expectations for comparable store sales, and comparable sales are expected to moderate in pace significantly in 2015. The stock was valued richly heading into its earnings report. Thus, these new issues, which threaten to continue to drag on operational results this year, should cause investors to reassess and relocate capital. See my report on Chipotle (CMG).
