If/when @altcap and $NVDA sell their shares in the next year or two, how is this different then what Andrew left did twitting a thesis and going to do the opposite shortly after?? That was deemed illegal and I am sure there they'll blame some event in the near future that disrupted their thesis, etc but this feels no different then self promotion in the opposite direction Bigger issue is existing shareholders from dramatically lower prices going on a retail oriented TV program to hype their holdings to buy in at inflated prices is blatantly perfidious and morally bankrupt. Bookmark this for when they sellout. Amazon ipo at a $438m valuation and Google at a $27B valuation by law of large numbers his statement is already categorically false unless all of GDP will be produced by these 3 companies

??? Two things can be true at the same time. In that you can have a slow down from weak international travel (administration) domestically, weak lower end consumer, glp, and inflation that is dragging down sales. And yet you can continue to invest in new store counts if the economics of your model are intact AND you have the balance sheet to continue to invest in your business. The competitors you cited besides macro have other issues impacting their ability to invest; PTLO has a serious balance sheet issue SG has an economic model problem... *turns out 18$ salads is a tough business*. Mcdonalds increased store openings in 2008 AND 2009 even as SSS growth was slowing every year 06-09....those investments worked out just fine because the model works. $SHAK SSS still going to print solidly positive for the year while most chains won't this year (and thats without the added store count). Shak has issues, all restaurants are tough and tough to scale and Rob and the cfo are far from Mcdonalds level of execution, but at 1x sales and a +20% restaurant margin model with 4m AUV theres a lot more room to the upside then the downside at current levels. I don't think they get to the dream target of 1500 stores, but that would be a 10x from here, whats the downside, at almost 1x current....30% maybe? I'll take that asymmetric set up.
