This week, I am going out on a stock that I think has already had a good one year run, and should stay away from......
CBRL
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store
Looking at a one year chart, it has been a consistent winner.
It reports on a short trading week, and I am hoping it beats it's estimates and skyrockets.
CBRL, long
( I really wanted to short Chipolte Mexican Grille, but it has taken me to the woodshed every time I picked it)

Oh good grief, should have gone short, ugh!. Maybe the rest of the week may change direction. At least for today, seem to be trying for bottom rung.  Darn horse fell flat as the market opened and lost all motivation to rise.  |

Great.
CBRL beats on earnings and sales, and nose dives.

ARUN keeps it's decline intact again today. Should have gone short. But, that's the way the old cookie crumbles.  |

Not even close! I dropped a little more even today. Tesla was up a little.
This is the last time I pick a freakin restaurant.
Until next time, that is.

architecto25 gets the win in this week's two heat edition of Stock Pick of the Week. Kadee66 was second and Disinfranchised Investor edged out uncle23 for third. Four of eight beat the benchmark.
