Restaurant stock #2: Cheesecake Factory (CAKE)

Can you believe Cheesecake Factory (NASDAQ: CAKE) traded below $5 last November?

I can. Its model of big meals and big cheesecake appeared vulnerable to the deep recession. Would consumers cut out the fat in their dining budget?

Apparently not, as the stock is up more than 3 times since hitting the bottom.

More consumers are being lured away from pricier eateries by fast food joints and a bevy of ready-made meals in their local grocers that need nothing more than a quick 20 minutes in the oven. And it's taking a big toll on higher-priced chains such as Cheesecake Factory (NASDAQ: CAKE).

CAKE has seen its fortunes slip along with the economy, and it's been a perfect storm of bad news for some time now.

First it was high food and gasoline prices that initially crushed the stock. Customers began worrying about filling their SUVs ...

Try building a short position in a name that has shown weakness.

    The stock of The Cheesecake Factory (CAKE) rallied slightly today off of it’s all time lows as the overall market rebounded strongly when presented with decent earnings, a drop in the price of oil, and a better than anticipated GDP number around the corner on Thursday. But Friday and thereafter could continue the downtrend the DOW Industrials has been following the last week.

Being European, it's hard to fully grasp some of the more 'embedded' backgrounds of the US Stock Market. Maybe the analysis of US restaurants is part of that. On paper, Cheesecake Factory shows decent figures, decent P/E and Forward P/E, decent financial results, a stock buyback program and overall, I can't see anything wrong with the stock. Yet, it's not really popular on SocialPicks, which might mean I'm missing something important.

<> In my view, the chain has what it takes. It offers variety, has a clear target audience, is quaint in its massiveness and seems to attract people in ma...

Well, how about shorting cheesecake factory, symbol : CAKE.  The stock has been weakeaned by the overall economic downturn.  Less people going out to eat due to higher gas prices and those chosing to dine out not going upscale restaurants is presumably the theory.  Technically, the stock looks like its going lower.  It recently gapped down on relatively high volume.  The ADX which measures the strength of a trend is very strong.  MACD trending downward.  Overall, I think shorting CAKE may be a decent trade in the coming weeks.  Here is the six month chart:

I'm big on healthcare and diet.  I don't think the cheesecake is going to last into 2010.  Plus, as far as a real estate play goes, it just rents not owns.  Recent news of GGP trying to muscle the factory out of its business should be a hint.  Nobody likes cheesy cause the sales are slipping.

CAKE is located usually at shopping centers.  It is a bit of an upscale Applebee's attended by those shoppers who would spend a day at the malls buying things they couldn't afford and topping it off with a meal.  I think the pressure currently seen on the consumer will hurt CAKE as less people go to the mall and the ones who do get things they need, not overpriced meals.   Sell
