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.

Nobody likes it. Graphic_rating_sell CAKE

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

Restaurant stocks are in the toilet: Is it time to buy?

Filed under: Starbucks (SBUX), Chipotle Mexican Grill'A' (CMG), Cheesecake Factory (CAKE), CKE Restaurants (CKR), Stocks to Buy

With the economy in the toilet, a lot of people are reluctant to go and spend big on restaurant cuisine.

By itself that would be a good reason not to invest in restaurant companies. But restaurant stocks have been absolutely smoked of late, so you have to wonder how much of the bad news is already priced in. Take a look:

Casual dining outlets may see Olympic slowdown

Filed under: Major movement, Analyst reports, Bad news, Industry, Brinker Intl (EAT), Options, Technical Analysis

EAT logoBrinker International (NYSE: EAT - option chain) shares are headed lower today. Last week, an analyst expressed concerns about potential weakness in the casual dining sector due to families that may have stayed home to watch Olympic coverage rather than going out for dinner. Today, there is some weakness throughout the sector, on stocks like Darden (NYSE: DRI) and Cheescake Factory (NASDAQ: CAKE) as well. If you think this stock won't be rising too far in the coming months, then ...

Cheesecake Factory (CAKE)
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.
