What moves DRI

Darden Restaurants, Inc. sits in Consumer Discretionary. Retail, autos, travel, and restaurants — spending that expands when confidence and real incomes rise, and contracts first when they fall. The forces that matter most for the sector — and therefore for DRI — are:

  • ◆Real wage growth and consumer confidence
  • ◆Interest rates on autos and big-ticket credit
  • ◆Inventory cycles and promotional intensity
  • ◆The trade-down between premium and value
