“Their duty is first, last and ONLY “to their shareholders”
Someone should explain that to Bud Light, and the Cracker Barrel crackpot.
Those poor shareholders took a shellacking, due to someone forgetting why they’re there.

My somewhat experienced suggestion - wait for the newness to wear off a little, and don’t go on a serious traveling weekend.

Wall Street wants to replace the Beaver with an elongated oval which represents a beaver’s tail. In fact, the new feminist CEO is horrified at the use of a beaver. Thank God, I’m only joking.

No. They didn't.

The only way they would have taken a "shellacking" is if they had bought right before and sold at the bottom. Most of them didn't. It is all "on paper" until you sell.

Excellent point. Even if you don’t like Buc-ee’s (which I do), they have caused a bathroom revolution among the competition. Even places that used to be nasty have stepped their game up, thanks to Buc-ee’s. Notable service to humanity

I get investing 101. What I meant was, management caused the company’s value to plummet.
Their job is to build value, not destroy existing equity.
These DEI, 90 day wonder, college kids don’t seem to have a clue how to do their main job...preserve & build the company.
BUD still hasn’t recovered to where it was.
CBRL changed their logo back, and jumped a bit.

Oddly enough the same thing happens overseas when McDonalds arrives.

The McDonalds has clean, well lit bathrooms that are fully stocked with toilet paper, soap and paper towels.

Because of that within a year the restaurants around them have become clean and well lit (or at least they put in a 60 watt bulb instead of the 20 watt they had before), there is toilet paper, soap and paper towels.

One place raises standards, every other place has to do so.

It’s hilarious when they bring a new brisket out to the cutting/chopping table.

“BRISKET ON THE BOARD! BRISKET ON THE BOARD!” as they march out from the back carrying it overhead to the cutting / chopping table. Then their guy goes to town on it.

Or gal, I found this vis. She’s cute!
