Bananas, McDonald’s, Krispy Kreme, and Broadening the Rally

Money Matters With Wes Moss

Wes is joined by Capital Investment Advisors Chief Investment Officer Connor Miller. They discuss Applebee’s date night pass and the rising cost of eating out, Krispy Kreme teaming up with McDonald’s, and which budget areas Americans are choosing to tighten because of inflation. Then they elaborate on the S&P 500 having its finest first quarter in five years and more companies contributing to that success, a development they call “Broadening of the Rally.” They warn of the challenges investors might find if their strategy lets the dog chase its tail. Finally, they end with Wes’ favorite headline of the week, “Inflation is Bananas,” about Trader Joe’s raising banana prices from 19 to 23 cents, its first increase in 20 years.
