Evercore ISI Reaffirms Their Hold Rating on Yum! Brands (YUM)We look forward to hearing why Taco Bell President, Sean Tresvant and team believe competitive outperformance is growing. Our best guess is that the performance gap is a culmination of a) compelling value with the $5 and $7 Luxe Box, and b) consistently rapid new product news. Trends over the last year have been helped by the launch of Steak Garlic Nacho Fries, Baja Dream Freezes, and cheesy dippy burritos. And 2025 should prove to be another compelling year of chicken news (e.g. crispy chicken).
