Top Restaurant Stocks To Watch Today – January 28th

Booking, Brinker International, and McDonald’s are the three Restaurant stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Restaurant stocks are shares of publicly traded companies that operate or support restaurants — including fast-food and full-service chains, franchisors, and related suppliers. Investors treat them as consumer-discretionary plays whose performance is closely tied to same-store sales and traffic, unit growth and franchising models, input costs (food, labor, rent), and broader economic and consumer-spending trends. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Restaurant stocks within the last several days.
