Yes these Celsius $CELH purchases certainly stood out when we were looking at insider buys this week. They were also buying at similar prices in May. Although those Nov 2025 purchases by the same director that was buying this week (Hal Kravitz) and by their COO were not timed well. Kravitz was previously a Coca Cola executive and has been on Celsius' board for over 10 years. We usually like to see opportunistic insider purchases by independent directors with long tenure on the board.

Could see $JACK, $WEN, $PZZA all go bankrupt. Probably others across the QSR space (subway, Pizza Hut some of the more challenged private operators) -- to be fair some of these could get acquired too but interesting how that would play through commercial real estate and impact the non distressed survivors -- very challenging space with prices having soared (affordability) and consumers pushing back or finding better/comparable value at a Chili's etc. Freight costs (diesel and trucker shortage from policy moves) and food costs that are/will escalate (freight and commodities) is going to bring new challenges to margins. Menu prices likely need to reset lower across many of these chains but that is a very difficult process for owners and franchises to accomplish especially while input costs continue to rise. GLP1s hurt overall volume trends as well but......look out to automation/robotics in store and how trends tend to switch back to QSR/fast food in a more stressed economic condition there might be select opportunities in the coming months for a few players as prices have/are resetting fast across tis space
