I've eaten at this place and althought the food was good I can't imagine this stock climb will continue and I also think eating Mexican food has peaked.

Too far to fast. P/E over 30.
A great stock just way overbought.
Short margin growing.

Not a good time to spend money leisurely

The current economic climate is forcing a series of changes in the spending habits of today's shoppers (like, duh!).
Casual dining, fast food, and restaurant dining are all going to suffer. People can't afford to put down $10+ per person for food, and even the $5+ for eating at fast-food places is stretching it. Why? because you have to add the cost of gas to that. Plus you have to take into account that while $10 is not that big a deal, normally, if you can buy the same stuff at the grocery and fix the meal yourself for less than $10, you are ahead of the game.
For the next 6 - 12 months, I expect that that kind of reasoning is going to have profound affect on the eating-out habits of Americans. And when you add to the whole mixture the fact that food prices are skyrocketing as a result of several factors, people are busy looking for ways to cut back on what they eat at home, let alone what they're going to pay in order to eat somewhere else.
Starbuck's closing 600 locations is nothing compared to the general cutting that eateries across the board are going to have to do to survive in today's market. CMG-B and anyone else is going to have to bite the bullet for a while.

Trendy. Overpriced. Only one way for price to go.....down

It was a fast riser and made me a chunk of money, but I think it's actually over-priced now. They aren't doing anything new or different anymore to warrant the wild earnings growth. Once it settles out, they'll ride just below the S&P rail.

Well, overall quality is not as fresh as they claim. Too many pople selling good burrito at better price. Just based on service and food, this will not fly.

Too high, too quick. Expecting the market downturn and profit taking to bring this down a bit. But I do love those burritos! Sorry Chipotle.

There is one Chipotle close by to where my house. I have never seen the place fill up and most of the time 60% empty. For me, the food was not that good. The management said no store has been closed. I think for now they just trying to keep the stat looking good.
