Investors, so to speak, are the most fickle group of individuals I have ever seen. In no other industry that I know of does anyone let the he said/she said (analysts ratings) control or majorly influenece their business decisions! We must realize that at times, analysts will state their position based on what "they" would like to see the stock do so as to benefit their position, whether it be buy or sell...remeber, they control sometimes tens of thousands of shares and they have to make a profit one way or another! The bottom line concerning Chipotle is, this company makes money hand over fist based on a very simple and efective business model...give us what we want, high quality naturaly raised food at an affordable price, in a pleasant environment. I as a shareholder that did not buy at the ipo price, am extremely pleased with the company's ongoing forward momentem in everything they do, and they do it well. If you haven't eaten there, you owe it to yourself. I think it is still a great value and worth owning. I predict a multiple split in the near future. Just my thoughts.

I agree completely. I hate when people talk off the hip and sway thoughts. This stock will do just as Starbucks did and split several times before it settle in at a nice 50-60. So, quit talking unless you have firm facts and let the stock rise like it should based on the facts.
