Speaker 1: It has to be cake? Ticker is cake at Cheese

11
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: Cake Factory? I know, I was like, this is a

12
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: winner ticker? How come I didn't know of this before?

13
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: So shares are actually just flat now? But pre market

14
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,599
Speaker 1: was down as much as six percent. But the restaurant

15
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: chain's comp sales during the fourth quarter came in below

16
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 1: average estimate, So this spread A downgraded stephens to equal

17
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 1: weight from overweight.

18
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 4: The analyst there said.

19
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: Same story, sales declined in the quarter and decelerated sequentially.

20
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 4: So with shares up already twenty seven.

21
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: Percent year today, asked of the last close, he said

22
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: he sees limited upside from here.

23
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 4: The same with Cheesecae Factori.

24
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: Is I feel like everyone knows it, but I actually

25
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: don't know a friend who has last been there, so

26
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 1: maybe recently.

27
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 4: Yeah. What do you eat there? Everything and the cheesecake?

28
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and I bring it off home for

29
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 3: the next couple of weeks. That's what makes it special.

30
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 4: Okay, maybe Yeah, So you contribute to their earnings exactly,

31
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 4: all right, About what's the next one you want to do? Walmart?

32
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 4: So this is in the green by one and a

33
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 4: half percent.

34
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 1: They issued a forecast for folio earnings that mis expectations,

35
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: so it was interesting to see that the stock is

36
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: still in the green. Walmart said it needs flexibility and

37
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: unpredictable time for consumers.

38
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 4: So Walmart is the world's largest retailer.

39
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: And they're often seen as the barometer for the broad

40
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: economy because just because of its massive size and reach.

41
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: So this was interesting because it just highlights the state

42
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: over the economy is today. I mean, the economy is

43
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: kind of doing well, but also not really It's like

44
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: a softish economy. Worth noting though, that Walmart is typically

45
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: conservative at the start of the year and then they

46
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: just upgrade or downgrade whatever forecast the all playbook yeahwards.

47
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, all right, finally, uh Wayfair Wayfair.

48
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: So our last small tour is with Wayfair ticker is

49
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: w stalk is down by ten percent. That's an intra

50
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: day low four months as active consumers in the fourth

51
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: quarter came and also slightly below expectations, so William Blair

52
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: says that the six point nine growth in that revenue

53
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 1: likely fell short of expectations. Peers like our Age and

54
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: Williams Sonoma are also in the red. So the analyst

55
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: there said that he believes that this is a solid

56
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: print but nothing major to complain about, just despite their

57
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,119
Speaker 1: expectations that the byside was slightly embedding slightly higher top

58
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: line growth.

59
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 4: Wayfair I used.

60
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: I used to buy a lot when I was furnishing

61
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: my apartment. Okay, I say used because I've lived in

62
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: the same place for four years. But it's a good brand.

63
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: I actually really liked it.
