Why is this restaurant company, Chipotle $CMG, still being valued like a tech start-up? It's baffling to me. CMG reported sales growth of 0.9%. Gross Margin improved to ~ 15%. G&A costs fell a decent 5.2% but...is CMG sacrificing quality and cleanliness for lower costs? Stick with $WEN or $MCD or even $SBUX instead. CMG: $CMG, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. / H1 $MCD: $MCD, McDonald's Corporation / H1 $SBUX: $SBUX, Starbucks Corporation / H1 Avoid Chipotle. Agree or disagree? Login now to vote.
