When the US struggles, china thrivesDon't want to say all that much about it.
But, very over sold and company has great cashflow. Mainly looking from the perspective that china does well when the USA struggles in equities.

A buying opportunity for Yum ChinaFirst thing first, I am not buying , yet. I will watch it over the next few weeks to see if the price rebounds strongly from the support at 344 -350 level. There is a possibility that it may continue to head south to revisit the next support at 289.80.
Remember the F&B business in China faces a lot of competition with new restaurants and menu being served up or turn around faster than you can imagined. The overall buying power in China is still weak as evidenced in the GXC and FXI ETF (rough guide).
So be patient....
Chicken wings and pizza fly on CNY periodUsing this as my last post for today, I am hoping the Chinese New Year starting tomorrow will usher in more revenue for KFC and Pizza Hut in China. Looking at the 4H chart, we can see a ultra bearish candle on 7 Feb with a gap up.
Thus I am awaiting for the price to come back down to 292 support level to close the gap before deciding to go LONG.
I also take this opportunity to wish all my followers and investors here a Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year. May the year of Dragon bring forth more opportunities for us, provide us with more wisdom to do the right things (capital allocation, risk management, portfolio diversification,etc), good health and healthy relationships all year round.
Yum China weekly chart read latest article here
Let's wait for the price to rebound off the support turn resistance line at 281.60 and if a bullish candle is shown, I will take an initial position.
Hmm, this may not happen this week , probably after CNY as this is a short trading week. Be patient, you need not catch the bottom to benefit from the rally so long the trend is in your favour and you have done your own research about the company.
Stick to what you like drinking ..........I believe humans are creatures of habits and drinking habits once formed are hard to change ,at least for most people.
Try this on your own, experiment with a new beverage in your country for an entire month and see how it influences your mood and behaviour. You starts to form a new belief, like it more and more as time passes and you stick to it OR you hate it by the day and swear never to drink it again.
We all know that the F&B industry is a cut throat industry where new menus and players are emerging faster than you can imagined. Yum China has an advantage, being a big player. It could buy its sources much cheaper than others , achieving economies of scale.
I plan to nibble on this stock next week banging on the opening of China businesses, especially Tier 1 cities like Beijing and Shanghai, the domestic tourism is recovering faster than expected and the acceptance by more locals over Fast food in China.
China tourism is explosive, ride on this wave now !These are the 3 stocks that I am currently invested and would be finding opportunities to add more. The China tourism is going to explode, especially this upcoming July school holidays. It will be the first after the long drawn 3 years lockdown for the chinese people in China.
They called it the revenge traveling but I say it is a money making opportunity, haha! Ride the wave. Soon , you will be reading news that luxury products are wipe off the retail shelves once more by these rich Chinese people. Their high spending power, even higher than before (make up for lost time - human psychology) will compensate for what they think they have lost (perception) and buy even more.
Yum ChinaChinese ADR continuing with move - 3 digit eps numbers , ADR are volatile , but if catch correctly ,may give great RR!

NEW SERIES! Some Picks of Stocks From Restaurant Industry!Hi,
I would like to start covering different sectors/industries and selecting stocks that are or may be relevant in the future from the point of view of technical analysis.
Starting with Restaurants, searched out more than 60 companies, and here are some picks which are technically "the best ones".
Obviously, Do Your Own Analysis! To be said I don't invest them all, I'm only interested in a few of them, these are just some ideas that you should consider. Do your fundamental analysis and I will bet that it narrows the selection quite strongly because this industry is risky. Still, rewards might be also quite decent ;)
If you like this kind of series then name the next industry/sector in the comment section that might look interesting for you! Name it, tell me why you name it!

YUMC 1H Wolfe Wave bullish 11/17A Wolfe Wave is a chart pattern composed of five wave patterns in price that imply an underlying equilibrium price. Investors who use this system time their trades based upon the resistance and support lines indicated by the pattern.
YUMC rises again! L > 67.97 (if 4h/1D close higher)
L @ 66.28
As i was expecting before - YUMC grows up.
I see some new lvl such as 66.28 and 67.97/
I really think, that one of this expectations will work next week.
YUMC is continuing dominating (ATH)L > 64.63 , L > 65.60
1W candle is giving a strong signal to long - i can see closing higher than previous ATH (FEB 2021) + extra volume.
I am expecting to see a move to 70$.
Long scenario is acrive, till 1D candle close higher >64.63$
From Watchlist. YUMC. Not seeing decisive price action.This is a good long term bullish stock for me, but I'm trying to play the stocks I think will be making decisive moves. This isn't it for me. The correction is too complex. I like to see a nice wedge or flag formation, and this is a continually descending. I think they call it a flat or an expanded flat. I would like to see it finish with a zig zag or a triangle, but I'm not seeing either of those develop yet, regardless of how hard I squint.
Could it make a drastic move. Yes, of course that is always in the cards. But, I don't think it will based on the price action I am seeing here. Take all of this with a grain of salt. Whatever I'm doing here, I'm inexperienced at it. At least I can say I took the path tool and followed it, so I'm not missing anything, but still this is a tricky one. I can't imagine many retail traders thinking the shape it's making is an inviting one.
YUMC will try to put ATH (if 1D close >61)I see an accumulation of energy in YUMC
zone 59.35-60.97 is seems to involve buyers and sellers into a fight.
If buyers win - you will see 1D closed >61.00 and this will be a signal to open long position. (Also climbing higher than 61 will put 1W candle into a green one, which provides more safety in long)
If buyers lose- you will see 1D closed <59.35. And it will be good chance to open short position on retest 59.35 from downside.
YUMC looking at more upsidey looking at further upside to $64.84 thereabouts for now which will mean new all-time highs.
