Fade Chipotle Stock As It Rallies Towards $500
Fast casual Mexican eatery Chipotle (NYSE:CMG) has been both Wall Street Hero and Wall Street Zero before. From 2012 to 2015, Chipotle stock played the role of Wall Street Hero, as the company was rattling off strong comparable sales quarter after strong comparable sales quarter, margins were rushing to all time highs and the stock was roaring. CMG stock went from hero to zero, and lost well over half of its value during a three year stretch wherein sales, margins and profits fell off a cliff.

Is McDonald's Stock Worth It?
A cynic might start to think that many analysts just copy each other in order to keep from straying too far from consensus. Morgan Stanley's John Glass seems to be a fan of the chain's efforts to modernize the stores, and expects to see these efforts show up in sales in 2019. It has become our little tradition that on the way home, we stop at our local McDonald's for a meal, before I disappear into my office for the end of weekend cram session as equity index futures crank it into gear for the week.

Jim Cramer Weighs in on McDonald's, Market Rally and Tech ETFs
Jim Cramer talks to TheStreet about the market rally, the tech effect on the market and whether or not investors should be considering tech ETFs. In Cramer's column for Real Money on Tuesday, Dec. 11, he discussed why he believes that tech ETFs are not as worthwhile as an investment as strong tech stocks. Cramer wrote, "The ETF promoters say they want us to do it so we can avoid "single-stock risk" -- which is a huge amount of hokum, because they NEVER talk about single-stock reward, so they all trade together anyway." He explains his reasoning to TheStreet.

McDonald's Serving as Safe Haven in Volatile Market
While many high-flying stocks have fallen to earth, McDonald's has been gaining ground. As investors turn away from aggressive investing and back to classic standbys, McDonald's could end up being a market leader as its historical resilience in tough markets and forward-looking remodeling plans garner attention, analysts say. "MCD is the only 'defensive' restaurant stock in our coverage, as demonstrated in both stock and fundamental performance, at a time when defensiveness should matter more," Morgan Stanley analyst John Glass wrote in a note explaining his bullishness on the stock.
