BK

uncivil_engineer42

Bull case is that they are able and willing to sell a used car to literally anyone. They have a good network of used cars that can be flipped and shipped, and a large inventory of used cars to pull from through their wholesaling network. They make it relatively easy and painless to finance a car purchase online by a simple income verification, which is preferable to low income and young buyers with iffy credit. The bear case is that they are financing almost anyone that can fog a mirror - they boast a 99% approval rating and only require you to prove you make at least $10k annually. While CarMax had to write down some of its used auto ABS last quarter, Carvana has not - which is a "miracle" considering that Carvana stuffs its prime ABS with 3-5% No FICO loans, something that CarMax has not even approached. And that's only the prime ABS arm that Carvana reports because it's sold publicly - the subprime arm, which was too toxic for Ally, is being bought by 2 (3?) unknown financing sources which they do not disclose terms on that Hindenburg has alleged are owned by parties related to Carvana CEOs, including former tomatoe enjoyer Dan Quayle. Meanwhile, the subprime used car ABS market is shitting the bed - delinquencies at actual all time highs, and 2 other subprime lenders have already gone BK, at least partially due to their own fraud.

Uhhh, what makes you think "speculative stocks" (your words), only go up. Speculative by definition means you can lose your ass, even BK at some point. Not sure what your point is by saying speculative stocks have dropped because by definition they are very volatile. Play with fire......

Agreed, like I understand it the reason, but I personally think just looking at price over market cap makes more sense. More likely people are going to scam penny stocks, stuff sub like 3 dollars. Like in the example of the walkie talkie company, they actually profitable, even though they have such a tiny market cap, which I always think is really cool. Here's their latest investor presentation: [https://storage.googleapis.com/vendorgroup-assets/site/7ada4fe6-a4f7-4e86-9996-2496b9a16c77/2025/11/14/6917b28bb189d74a2140312e/BK%20Investor%20Presentation%20November%202025%20FINAL.pdf](https://storage.googleapis.com/vendorgroup-assets/site/7ada4fe6-a4f7-4e86-9996-2496b9a16c77/2025/11/14/6917b28bb189d74a2140312e/BK%20Investor%20Presentation%20November%202025%20FINAL.pdf)

Not always in my experience... but there's a catch. Especially on new cards, they would sometimes do 0% xfer fee and 6-18 months zero interest. I was diligent and thought I was playing the game right... for over 16 years. In 08 when the music stopped, all my balances were at or below 7% interest and I had plenty of overhead on my cards. I paid on time, no misses. Very good credit. Suddenly, the banks stopped their sales and offers, ALL AT ONCE. That wasn't the worst part: within 3 months all my credit cards knocked down my credit line to just above my balance! I could no longer use that overhead I'd spent years building. I could run completely out of money within 4 months ( now average 23% interest... my minimum payments tripled!), cash out my retirement, or do what everybody else was doing. BK it is. Never again. I now have zero debt except for the mortgage, but there's equity in the house. I pay the cards off each month. And I don't trust the banks.

captain_adjective

Probably easier to just wait for them to BK and negotiate with creditors to buy the company once equity is wiped out.

szmeagol

Irbt is about to go BK within weeks. Debt is higher then market cap. Only a takeover could save the company.

Coloradodreaming1

There’s always the BK option if things continue to deteriorate.

Its posts like these that let me blow kisses to my Cutie mossberg in the corner like. “Not tonight baby, We can go lower.“ 🥰 But seriously, file for BK and if you can join the foreign legion if you are not a fat body. Start over and fight the good fight making French babies on some Parisian farm.

It’s a company that has bad financials, they’re facing BK, and what else? A pump and dump. Where people are going to lose money.

I don’t think todays consumer needs a Wendy’s + BK + McDonalds Wendy’s and BK will die out due to the growth of regional competitors like In N Out, Chic Fil A, Culver’s, and Whataburger McDonald’s will be forever tho.

Dry-humper-6969

Why do people hate on Wendy's? I'd rather have Wendy's than McDonald's or BK. Serious question

My future outlook for next 12-months New auto sales will be generated with 0% - 84-month financing from the manufacturer. Manufacturers will close plants this winter for 30-days to reset dealer inventories and save labor manufacturing costs. Furniture and mattresses will do the crazy no payments for 24-36 months to move products. Fast food franchises to file BK. And lastly, we will have a material gap in new housing starts (and commercial construction projects) due to uncertainty in the economy; and until the subcontractors and material supply companies reduce their profit margins back to 2020 or before timeframe. This will occur because only the top 50% of working families can afford to pay higher prices for food, autos and housing.

I’d just go: 75% SPY, 15% BND, 10% cash. If you wanted to buy some individual companies to throw into the mix: PEP - soda and snacks giant CAT or DE - farm and heavy equipment MSFT - O/S software GOOG - search engine, Ai, maps, email, YouTube, it basically has it all. META - social media, Ai AMZN - consumer goods, web servers, Ring MMM - all kinds of materials, industrial and consumer, spun off its ear plug division which has serious legal issues BK - large integrated global bank, too big to fail PM - global tobacco manufacturer DIS - entertainment, legacy media

The idea is that the allocation between savings and investments should be based on what YOU need to save up for within ~5 years. First things first, don’t even invest until you have saved up 3-6 months worth of expenses. This is your emergency fund which you don’t touch unless you really need to. Next, take a look at what homes around you (or in your target area) cost and what you can reasonably afford. How much do you need for downpayment? How many year is a reasonable target to buy a home? If you can target home purchase within 5 years, then work out how much you need to save per month to afford the downpayment, with some inflation built in. This will just be savings, maybe bonds, but not stocks as the stock market could crash when you are about to buy the home. Then whatever else is left after expenses and savings goes to your investments for the long-term (retirement, predominantly). If the house is more than 5 years away, then you can invest towards it, but as you get closer to the target year, you sell some to lock-in your profits and move that to the savings pot for downpayment. If you’re going to wipe out your entire portfolio to buy a home, I’m going to say that you can’t afford this home yet. Within your investments, 10% fun money for trading is ok. Be careful of letting it become more than that because I can see your gambling mentality showing. Majority can be in one or more index funds. If you absolutely don’t know anything, a global equities index fund is easiest instead of trying to balance US vs non-US yourself. One of these, probably. You have to scroll down quite far to find what the ticker is in your preferred stock exchange and currency. https://www.justetf.com/en/etf-profile.html?isin=IE00B4L5Y983#stock-exchange https://www.justetf.com/en/etf-profile.html?isin=IE00BK5BQT80.#stock-exchange https://www.justetf.com/en/etf-profile.html?isin=IE000716YHJ7#stock-exchange

Wow. I was in this probably 20 yrs ago. didn’t know it was still around, always seemed on the verge of BK. just looked at chart, and that longgggg horizontal line? that was my time. GL.

United_Recover7190

Just an opinion here. The way this stock has declined, it looks like stock manipulation. There is NO fundamental reason for MIGI to decline AFTER positive news of the dismissal of that involuntary BK petition and the 5 year lease extension to the Bellefonte facility. There is an outstanding concern that NASDAQ has not confirmed their continued listing, but the company stock traded over $1.00 for more than ten days after their extension. Would not be surprised that the shorts pushed the stock under $1.00 in the hopes the exchange says that the price is too low. But if they got confirmation of compliance, the short squeeze would be huge. IMO

I agree in terms of F&B. Wish they bought Arby's. In many EMs, Popeyes is quite popular than McDonald's, BK, KFC or Subway type food.

Are they like the little hash browns from BK? Because those are top tier

Where you goin to lunch? RED lobster!? Don’t splurge yet maybe go BK the 2 for 5 crescants !

ash_ninetyone

Hope not. They've only just re-entered the UK market and they're hands down better than BK and Maccies. For a start they actually serve their food fucking hot.

DialSquar

All this does is beg the question, “how the fuck does Burger King still have 1,000s of locations?” Has anyone been to a decent BK location in the last year? They’re worse than chipotle.

ZHName

Not as informed on structure of BK but is there a potential for cooked books here? From insurance (which is bleeding) to residential properties, what exactly is this company? Along the lines of Devil Machines, 'too big to fail'.

BigShort1357

The Fed illegally bought some Corp bonds in 20’..two politicians called them out..trial balloon for when they buy it all next year..lemonade stands will need funding- Fed wants cheap $ to print another 10 Trillion apparently as of yesterday and the Pres wants cheap $ to refi his properties and golf courses to avoid BK-that’s all any of this is, crash it they will- socialism for rich, capitalism for poor- enjoy :)

fraghead5

I went to BK yesterday, 3 "value meals" came to $38 in NJ. Fast food is eating it's own face.

Gorgenapper

Honestly, I'd rather go to a nice Italian family-run grocery store (mind you, not Pusateri's but a place like Vincenzo's or Eataly) and get a fresh made sandwich. They slice the meat for you, you choose what bread, what toppings, and so on. Anything out of these places kills McD's, Wendy's, BK, whatever, for less money or more money but way higher quality. Out of spite, I make my own sandwiches using Costco stuff (sourdough bread, roast beef, basil pesto, smoked cheese, whatever else) and it's so incredibly cheap compared to the rip off prices that I find it really hard to part with my money for bad fast food nowadays.

SolWizard

Strong disagree. Wendy's tastes much better imo. It's not better than something like in n out but it's better than McDonald's and BK

No dilution, no atm open and no shelf, no BK risk, no reverse split no delisting micro cap short squeeze Guys You have to pick the right stock This is the right stock Shorts are fn trapped This is legendary play CYN (Cyngn Inc.) - Current ~$4.15-4.35, Market Cap ~$29-35M • Short Squeeze (10/10) → TEXTBOOK setup: 20-22% short, 10+ days to cover, 16.9% borrow fee, only 150k shares available - shorts are trapped. • News/Earnings (6/10) → Older Buy rating + $12.24 target (~3x), multiple older partnership news. • Low Float (10/10) → ~8M float (near full outstanding) = nuclear volatility. • Propensity to Triple (9/10) → Highest raw rocket fuel - any volume spike forces short covering at 20% fee. History of violent moves (52W high adjusted 1312 → likely reverse-split survivor). Zero hedge ballast = retail can squeeze it to double/triple overnight.

Already up 20 dollars on CYNGN keep the volume moving this company is legit no dilution, no atm open and no shelf, no BK risk, no reverse split no delisting TL;DR: $CYN is a beaten-down AV micro-cap trading at $4.43 with analyst targets at $12+.

Meta_Man_X

Burger King is the king of value right now. It used to be McDonalds many years ago. BK has shockingly low pricing where I live.

tth2000

Here’s the thing about student loans…… BK doesn’t dissolve that shit. Go down to the library or quad and fill out every credit card application you can find. Then use that money to play options roulette. BK will wipe the slate clean on that debt.

Dude I went to a BK in Alabama once. Holy shit. Transformative experience. BK in the northeast sucks ass but down south you can have it your way apparently

Marketspike

I would think that the involuntary BK petition that was just dismissed had a negative effect on signing new contracts. I would think that MIGI is actively seeking those contracts now. The market cap is too low at $28 million with 129 MW of power. And I think there is another company considering acquiring MIGI, but it should not be below $4/share. IMO

Fit_Entry8839

"Collapse" feels really strong when their transactions were down less than one percent, and revenue up. Big question is what their competitors do. Last few months, McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King had really great deals in their app. Go to those subreddits, the deals are gone as of the last few weeks. So it's no longer get a $7 whopper meal, it's gets a $10.39 whopper meal(just checked my BK, it's that for a medium right now), or $12.50 Chipotle burrito and drink. That makes it a much closer call. I'd do $7 whopper meal all day every day over Chipotle. But as the price gap closes I may go back and forth.

Gold-Bid-6169

Remember when they should have gone bankrupt in 2021…zoom out regard it’s a house of cards. Could it get to $400 sure - but odds are heavily against you with many in the industry going BK and defaults are multiplying. Just look at its apples to apples competitor in carmax and the valuation comparison

Acceptable-Candy-527

top 10% household here, McDonald's is too expensive now and BK is yucky

azzaranda

My store messed up my order a month ago. The customer service chatbot is fully automated and gives you a credit for slightly more than you paid for the item. I've been back 5 times since then and haven't paid a dime. They fuck up my order. Every. Time. It's always something stupid and trivial too - like I'll gladly pay 15c for tomato on my chicken sandwich. No tomato? guess that's the whole order credited back to my account. Thanks BK. For a company who advertises itself on doing custom items really well, my local store can never, ever, do it right.

nosmelc

BK was good in the 80's.

IKnowGuacIsExtraLady

As an American I will say at no point in my life has any Burger King ever been good. Most fast food has declined in quality over the years but BK started at the bottom. I really don't understand how they still exist.

Khimari_Ronso

I find BK to be consistently terrible.

Skyfier42

BK quality completely depends entirely on the health standards of the owner. 

TheDaharMaster

\*Burger King has entered the chat Seriously tho...BK is super hit or miss. Sometimes you'll find a great store that makes the food properly, but most times it's like a bunch of baboons behind the counter slapping burgers together and leaving the fries out too long.

GrandmaPoses

I'm not going to say it's why you have more money - but as a fellow 10%-er I don't eat, and would never eat, McDonald's or BK. I also don't eat at Chipotle and that's because they overcharge for shitty food.

I got the beyond burger at BK a couple times It actually wasn't bad. Could barely tell the difference between the regular whopper and the beyond whopper. But since I'm not doing it for moral or dietary reasons, why would I pay the same for fake meat?

EmergencyFair6786

BYND is diluting their shares right into WSB hype. Executives will get one last big severance payout, some debt will get paid, and then they'll go BK.

United_Recover7190

Probably better to say that MIGI lagged the valuation recognition in the sector. For a company doing over $40 Million in annual revenue, the market cap is about $28 million. Check out the other bitcoin miners going into AI. Huge moves in market cap. What attracts me to MIGI is that it has run up on high volume and consolidated right after a court case was thrown out. That court case with a threat of bankruptcy had negative effects on winning new clients--why would any company sign with that BK possibility out there? That is over. (BTW, the run up you mention probably attracted short sellers...watching for those shorts to cover). The public float is about 18 million shares. GL

I think this highly varies by location and ownership/management. The BK nearest to me is absolutely filthy and the Wendys is pristine by fast food standards. But I have seen some very run down Wendys traveling.

Fake meat, you're my only hope. I had the beyond burger at BK and it was surprisingly not bad... but since it was the same price as actual beef, why would I ever buy it?

I was middle aged in the middle of my career in 2009. I recall understanding I had many years for the market to rebound to new highs. I bought as many equities as I could when the market tanked. I focused on home builder ETF’s. We lost a few long time clients and my salary went down about 10%. We tried to buy distressed real estate but were either outbid or my wife was not willing to take the plunge. The people who really suffered were folks that bought real estate at the high in 2007-08 and had to sell for some reason. That or people who got scared and sold. I know 2 people who each lost $1B and another who lost $900M and went BK. All three of them were highly leveraged in big real estate deals. I also know folks who bought property on the courthouse steps at fire sale prices who made a fortune.

BK boutta report monster earning tmrw morning

AntoniaFauci

If you mean ones that will rip this week or this month, who knows. But if someone has multi-year patience, there’s some very tempting prospects. Solar energy is free electricity from the sky. It’s the cheapest, the safest, the cleanest, and the quickest electricity form. The fact this anti-science and anti-reality regime has programmed people from all sides to think the opposite is a scenario than can’t continue forever. Especially not in an environment where communities that currently consume 1 GW of electricity are anticipating adding data centers that supposedly need 17 GW. You don’t go from 1 to 18 without unbelievable amounts of generation. Solar is cheap, safe, quick. It’s not 17 GW, but whatever capacity it does add is practically free. Profitable companies with best of breed products and solutions like **Enphase and Stem** are down 90%. I don’t know if reality kick in during 2025 or 2026 or 2027. I just know that when people remember that free and clean electricity is good, these will be multi bag wins. **BROS** is a rapidly growing regional to national chain. It’s well run, with sustainable growth, and healthy margins. Their big name competitor has burnt their reputation, demoralized employees, been gone deaf to customers, and is currently shrinking and chopping and firing the rank and file even as they shatter all sense in executive compensation. In contrast, BROS has happy customers and rising esteem in HundredX tracking. Their most recent earnings was a monster beat, sending the stock up to near $90. On no other actual news, it has declined almost every day since. Some of that is being lumped into the QSR restaurant category, which isn’t right. Some is every bungled step by SBUX being unfairly projected on BROS. Some is overshot fear of coffee commodity costs. Some is capital being yanked from anything physical and tangible into quantum and AI fairy dust futures. If the upcoming earnings builds on the last one, BROS here in the $40s could be brewing up a piping hot rebound. If not, the traditionally strong Q4 is right here. It’s fairly risked down here. Base chemical component makers tend to be cyclical, and they’re way down deep in the cycle now, where they’ve been for an inexplicably long time. I’m not that qualified to even explain exactly why. I can’t fully explain why they’ve dropped so much, for so long. You’ve got DD, TRINSEO, DUPONT type names that have been crushed. TRINSEO is down to BK-worry levels, now $1-2 down from peaks in the $60’s. Supposedly the expected turn in 2025 is now even in doubt for 2026. But the world does use and need these primary chemicals. When the turn happens, for the ones that survive gains could be *more* than 10x. Personally, I can live with having a large position in things that a dead money for multiple years if there’s a prospect of a 10x later. Fear/vid/volatility instruments are also beaten down. They decay, so they’re typically always setting new all time lows. But they usually spike on panic events, things the tend to happen at least once a year. They spiked in April for instance, and two times during 2024. If you’re ready and able to sell a spike, that can be a double digit or even triple-digit gain.

OP if it makes you feel any better I lost 90% of my wealth in 2008-2009. I was in high school and saved $13k from selling candy and having part time jobs. I invested into two stocks ACAS - American Capital Strategies a mezzanine financing company that lended money to various small/midsized businesses (roughly $10-$100 million in assets) and based out of Bethesda Maryland and EXM - Excel Maritime Carriers a dry bulk ocean shipping company based out of Greece (the country). Both proceeded to shit the bed. You have to diversify and buy lots of different companies. Maybe try buying SPY. If not you have to start investing for the long term into some safer companies like: CAT, CSX, ORCL, BX, MCD. Here are a few more: MSFT, XOM, PEP, BK, and RSG. Good luck, you can recover from your losses. If nothing else, just buy SPY (the entire S&P 500), and never sell, no matter what. Set it to dividend reinvest.

Market cap vs a balance sheet metric are why people get in trouble analyzing a stock. Look at the tangible value of the company and compare to liabilities. Not market cap. Market cap can be a premium or discount to balance sheet value. It’s true if market cap gets too low the company could go insolvent, but on the flip side a company can issue new stock to offset debt, similar to a govt opting to print new money to satisfy debt instead of borrowing or taxing. It will kill the stock price but will resolve the debt obligation (in theory). In practice they would push for a debt restructure and if unable to resolve then file for BK to restructure and reissue stock and/or take the company private.

This right here. I’m expecting dramatic growth for Amazon. Their foray into healthcare and pharmacy has incredible potential as does AWS. I also think the bank stock for NY Mellon, $BK, is poised for breakout based on their numbers to date.
