Yum! Brands (YUM): Taco Bell and KFC Drive Growth
Yum! Brands posted strong 2025 results powered by Taco Bell and KFC, but Pizza Hut remains a drag under strategic review. The stock looks like a quality Buy, though valuation and leverage limit the upside.
Copart’s CEO selloff looks like a gift, not a thesis break
Copart's sharp selloff after the CEO transition announcement looks more emotional than fundamental. Jay Adair's return reads like continuity at a business still posting 33.5% net margins and year-over-year EPS growth, not a thesis break.
Can You Actually Buy Subway Stock Right Now?
No, Subway is not publicly traded. It has no ticker, and the company was sold to Roark Capital in 2023, so retail investors can’t buy Subway shares on an exchange. If you want exposure, the realistic path is to look at comparable public restaurant stocks or, for accredited investors, private secondary markets when available.
