CEO Retirement Shakes Up YUM! Brands: Time To Sell Or Hold This Stock?
When it comes to global fast food, few companies are as iconic—or as quietly consistent—as YUM! Brands (YUM). With household names like Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut, this fast-food giant serves up more than just tacos and fried chicken—it delivers steady revenue, dividends, and a tech-savvy business model that keeps investors coming back for seconds.
While Taco Bell and KFC continue to shine, Pizza Hut is lagging in the U.S., and the recent announcement of CEO David Gibbs’ retirement has added a layer of uncertainty. But with a franchise-heavy structure (98% of stores!), growing international exposure, and smart tech investments, YUM! is still holding its ground.
