#1 - Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE:CMG)
I’ve been impressed with how strong of a comeback story exists with Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG). The company has fought its way back from multiple events that would have derailed many companies. In the process, the company has re-established itself as the main choice for fast-casual dining. The company’s focus on food quality will continue in the fall of 2021 with a limited-time Mexican-inspired smoked brisket menu item.
CMG stock has dropped 4% in the last month. Yet even though the stock is still trading near the high-end of its 52-week range, analysts expect a much higher upside. The MarketBeat screener ranks Chipotle ranks as one of the top 10 most upgraded stocks by analysts in the last 90 days. One reason for analyst optimism is the company’s consistent earnings-per-share growth. In the first three quarters of 2021, the company already has outpaced its earnings for all of 2019 which will be the tougher comparison.
