Cost gap between dining out, at home at all-time high: BofA

Consumers have been met with rising dining costs in and out of the home. However, a Bank of America note reports that the gap in the cost of food at home versus food away from home is now at an all-time high. Bank of America Securities Senior Food and Beverage Analyst Peter Galbo joins Market Domination to discuss the findings. While Galbo notes that the cost of food away from home is typically always rising, the numbers tell a dramatic story: the analyst highlights that it is $10 more expensive to eat away from home in a quick service setting and $25 more in a sit-down environment per person. Respectively, that amounts to four and 6.5 times the cost of eating at home. With price sensitivity a concern for many in the consumer market, Galbo underscores that upper-income consumers are currently driving more away-from-home spending. As prices rise, Galbo notes that it is interesting to see promotional activity come out of restaurants as a response. Food companies like General Mills (GIS) and Hormel (HRL) are also starting to see a need to pick up promotional activity, the analyst says.

Fast food discounts are a 'necessary evil' right now: Analyst

The fast food sector has seen an uptick in discounted offerings from companies like McDonald's (MCD) and Burger King as pressure to bring in more consumers intensifies. What does this mean for the broader restaurant sector? BTIG Managing Director and Restaurant Analyst Peter Saleh and TD Cowen Managing Director Andrew Charles join Market Domination to give insight into the discounts offered at fast food chains and what investors need to keep in mind moving forward. Saleh characterizes the industry as healthy overall but highlights several key risks: "I think these discounts, as steep as they are, are going to likely hurt same-store sales in the medium term, and I think they could hurt margins in our opinion. These are investments in value perceptions given all the media backlash against all the price increases that have been happening. So we think this is something necessary, a necessary evil for these companies to be doing at this point in time, but it's going to take some time to change the perception and the narrative in the media that these companies are more about value than they are about price hikes." Charles notes he is "cautiously optimistic" about the fast food giants' strategy: "I would say the last time we saw this, to your point, was in 2018, not a banner year for McDonald's. You had same-store sales of about 2.5%. It's a little bit above the consensus right now for 2% for the year and during that time, traffic was negative by about 2.2%. So the analog here is not great."

Short Interest on Fast-Food Stocks Surging as Meal Deals Pop Up

Total short interest in restaurants shot up 6% sequentially in the first two weeks of May, with much of that driven by high franchised quick-service brands, including Burger King parent Restaurant Brands International and Wendy's, as investors grow wary of softening fast-food traffic and the emergence of "value wars" within the sector, Raymond James analyst Brian Vaccaro says in a research note.

What Nvidia, consumer spending signal for the market: Catalysts

On today's episode of Catalysts, Hosts Seana Smith and Madison Mills break down key market trends and the trading day's biggest stories. As Nvidia (NVDA) is set to report its earnings this week, HSBC Global Private Banking and Wealth Management Americas CIO Jose Rasco joins the show to discuss how the chip company and the overall AI push may impact the market (^DJI,^GSPC, ^IXIC). He explains that new technology, like artificial intelligence, is diffusing across all sectors as companies seek to find efficiencies and expand revenue. Rasco adds that Nvidia and the AI boom will ultimately drive deflation in the market, ultimately resulting in lower prices for goods and services. However, there are some geopolitical pressures facing the chip sector. ASML (ASML) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) could disable their chip machines remotely if China were to invade Taiwan, according to a report from Bloomberg. JPMorgan Chase (JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon sparked speculation about his potential resignation after pivoting from his usual stance during the company's annual investor day and saying that his remaining time at the company is no longer five years. Yahoo Finance's David Hollerith explains what this means for the company's future and who might be considered to succeed Dimon. Lowe's (LOW) topped Wall Street's first quarter earnings estimates, posting revenue of $21.36 billion and gains of $3.06 per share. While consumer spending remains low, CEO Marvin Ellison points to loyalty programs and online spending as areas offsetting pullback concerns. Meanwhile, Peloton (PTON) is having a more difficult time dealing with the consumer sales slump as the home fitness company announced it is starting the sale of a $1 billion loan offering. Wendy's (WEN) and (TGT) both announced new initiatives to draw consumers back to their stores, from a $3 breakfast value meal to price cuts on five thousand items.
