Yum (YUM, $117.73) stock rises on Q1 earnings beat

Yum Brands shares climbed Wednesday, after it reported first quarter results. The fast-food company, that owns chains like Taco Bell and Pizza Hut,  posted earnings of $326 million, or $1.07 a share, compared with $83 million, or 27 cents a share, in the year-earlier quarter. Analysts polled by FactSet expected 86 cents a share.

Revenue rose to $1.49 billion from $1.26 billion. It also exceeded analysts’ expectation of $1.45 billion.

Global same-store sales increased 9%. Same-store sales in the U.S. increased 11%, 8% and 10% for KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell respectively. These figures were calculated on a 2-year basis, according to the company.

"First-quarter results reflect encouraging momentum across our business, including solid two-year same-store sales growth and a meaningful uplift in unit development," Chief Executive David Gibbs said in a statement.

Gibbs also added that the company took “important steps” to bolster digital and marketing capabilities through the acquisitions of two technology-focused companies.

Last month Yum Brands acquired the Tel Aviv online-ordering firm Tictuk Technologies.

If Hedge Funds are Using AI to Invest, Why Shouldn’t You?

Some of the world’s biggest financial institutions have devoted multi-million dollar budgets to developing algorithms that can find patterns in the market, identify trends, and perform automated trading designed to take advantage of even the smallest price movements. The AI revolution is so big that as it stands today, the world’s five biggest hedge funds all use systems-based approaches to trade financial markets.Indeed, quantitative trading hedge funds now manage $918 billion (according to HFR), which amounts to 30% of the $3 trillion hedge fund industry – a percentage continues to grow with each year that passes.

What's the Difference Between Tokens and Altcoins?

Between their inherently technical nature, multiple varieties and sub-varieties, and endless terminology, cryptocurrency (defined here as digital or virtual currencies that are encrypted using cryptography, powered by the immutable digital ledger known as the blockchain) represents a whole, complex world.All altcoins possess their own blockchain, independent from their source code, that records all transactions of their native coins. Many altcoins are variants, or forks, of Bitcoin that leverage that cryptocurrency’s open-source protocol as the basis.

Why it Pays to Invest in Dividend Stocks Over the Long Term

Why it Pays to Invest in Dividend Stocks Over the Long Term

Where smaller, more volatile companies can placate shareholders with higher returns, larger companies often use dividend payouts to entice new investors and hold their existing ones. These low-risk options may not work for every investment approach, but dividend-producing stocks can offer great benefits under the right circumstances – especially for portfolios built for the long-term.Beyond the ability to rely on these semi-regular payouts as an income stream – a strategy favored by retirees – dividends are an excellent vehicle for compounding earnings through reinvestment.
