Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>) shares are trading higher on Tuesday. The company reported mixed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41601688/royal-caribbean-eyes-14-eps-in-2025-amid-cruise-demand-and-expanded-destinations" rel="noreferrer noopener">third-quarter results today</a>.
Revenue grew 17.5% year-over-year to $4.89 billion,&nbsp;missing the consensus of $4.90 billion, while adjusted EPS of $5.20&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41601688/royal-caribbean-eyes-14-eps-in-2025-amid-cruise-demand-and-expanded-destinations" rel="noreferrer noopener">was above the consensus of $5.03</a>.
The company sees fourth-quarter net yields increase 5.1% to 5.6% in constant currency. RCL sees adjusted EPS of $1.40 – $1.45 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">against the estimate of $2.28</a>.
Goldman Sachs analyst Lizzie Dove writes that looking ahead, the primary disappointment is expected to be in the fourth-quarter guidance, with reported net yield growth projected at 5.3% to 5.8%, slightly below our expectation of 5.9%.
This forecast already considers the impact of Hurricane Milton, estimated at approximately 40 basis points, which would adjust the midpoint to 5.95%, added the analyst.
Additionally, Dove anticipates a greater emphasis on costs, as the fourth-quarter guidance of 7.8% to 8.3% year-over-year (reported) exceeds Goldman Sachs and Street estimates of 5.6% to 5.8%.
The analyst says that the fourth-quarter adjusted EPS guidance incorporates $0.24 of headwinds—one-third from Hurricane Milton and two-thirds due to the timing of cost shifts from the third quarter and increased non-cash stock compensation.
Adjusting for the timing shift in costs from third-quarter diminishes the EPS beat, which may not meet investor expectations, adds the analyst.
However, Dove says that the fundamentals remain robust, with demand and pricing conditions improving since the last earnings call and strong demand anticipated for 2025.
The analyst anticipates that long-term estimates for the Street to rise as a result, with current 2025 EPS estimated at $14.04 and the Street&#8217;s at $13.70.

Warner Bros. Discovery To Launch Max In Southeast Asia As Competitor Cutbacks

Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) shares are trading higher on Friday.
The company announced that Kathleen Finch, Chairman and CEO of U.S. Networks, will retire after 25 years of service.
Following her retirement at the end of the year, Channing Dungey, Chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. Television Group, will take over the leadership of the U.S. Networks business, per a <a target="_blank" href="https://wbd.com/warner-bros-discovery-announces-retirement-of-chairman-and-ceo-of-us-networks-kathleen-finch/" rel="noreferrer noopener">statement</a>.
Finch has led the unit since the Discovery-WarnerMedia merger in 2022 and previously managed a dozen lifestyle networks for Discovery, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/business/media/warner-bros-discovery-hands-cable-tv-business-to-top-studio-executive-a60e98a6?mod=latest_headlines" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported </a>The Wall Street Journal.
In 2022, following the creation of Warner Bros. Discovery, Finch assumed oversight of animation juggernauts Adult Swim and Cartoon Network, as well as top entertainment cable networks TNT and TBS.

The change indicates that Warner Bros. Discovery is aiming to reevaluate its content strategy for its cable networks, the report noted.
In recent years, the company has reduced its focus on scripted content like sitcoms and dramas, shifting instead towards reruns and unscripted programming such as reality TV, while prioritizing the growth of its direct-to-consumer streaming platform, Max.
Dungey will assume control of the company&#8217;s cable business during a challenging period, the report added. Cord-cutting has severely impacted cable networks, with ratings and ad revenue declining for years.
Last week, Warner Bros. Discovery wrote down $9.1 billion of its cable networks&#8217; value, while Paramount Global reduced the value of its cable business by nearly $6 billion.

Networks under Dungey&#8217;s oversight will include TNT, TBS, HGTV, Discovery, OWN, and TLC. The report further noted that she will not be involved with CNN, which operates as a separate unit, or HBO, which is outside the U.S. Networks group.
According to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>, WBD stock has lost over 44% in the past year.

What's Going On With Warner Bros. Discovery Stock Today?

Hyatt Hotels Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/H#NYSE">H</a>) is reportedly close to finalizing a deal to acquire boutique hotel operator Standard International, continuing its trend of expanding luxury properties in popular leisure destinations.
Negotiations between Hyatt and Standard, which manages properties in London, Ibiza, the Maldives, and Melbourne, are in the advanced stages, reported <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-17/hyatt-said-to-be-in-advanced-talks-to-buy-standard-hotels-brand?srnd=industries-v2&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a>, citing sources familiar with the matter.
Although no transaction has been completed yet, and the deal could still not take place.
A spokesperson for Hyatt said the hospitality major remains committed to &#8220;asset-light growth through both organic expansion and strategic acquisitions.&#8221;
Under the leadership of CEO Mark Hoplamazian, Hyatt has been proactive in acquiring brands such as Alila, Thompson Hotels, and the all-inclusive portfolio of Apple Leisure Group.
These acquisitions have facilitated Hyatt's transition to a business model focused on licensing brands to third-party investors while enhancing its portfolio with high-end hotels that appeal to loyalty program members.
Standard International, initially developed by Andre Balazs, is renowned for its vibrant nightlife offerings at locations like the hotel straddling New York's High Line, the report highlighted.
This acquisition would further strengthen Hyatt's presence in the boutique hotel segment, adding to its collection of luxury properties.
In May, the company reported first-quarter FY24 sales growth of 2% year-on-year to $1.714 billion, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/05/38735101/why-is-hyatt-hotels-stock-sliding-today" rel="noreferrer noopener">beating the analyst consensus estimate of $1.707 billion.</a>
Hyatt stock has gained more than 29% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Invesco Leisure And Entertainment ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEJ#NYSE">PEJ</a>) and Invesco S&amp;P MidCap 400 Pure Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RFG#NYSE">RFG</a>).

Why Is Paramount Global Stock Surging In Monday's Premarket Session?

Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) shares surged premarket Wednesday as Skydance Media has reportedly reached a preliminary agreement to acquire National Amusements Inc. and merge with Paramount, the parent company of CBS and MTV.
Shari Redstone&#8217;s&nbsp;National Amusements, the family firm controlling Paramount, will forward the deal to a special committee of Paramount directors for review, reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-02/skydance-media-is-said-to-reach-paramount-merger-agreement?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bloomberg</a>.
This deal, which involves significant financial maneuvering, aims to bolster Paramount&#8217;s position in the competitive media landscape.
Th development follows the recent <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/06/39281124/paramount-and-skydance-merger-talks-fall-through-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">collapse of previous negotiations</a>, with renewed talks gaining momentum over the past week. Skydance is led by Oracle Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) co-founder Larry Ellison&#8217;s son David Ellison.
The new terms include a higher valuation for National Amusements and enhanced legal protections for Redstones&#8217; company.
Sellers have 45 days to explore better offers. If approved, the agreement could be finalized within days, though potential hurdles remain.

As part of the proposed transaction that Ellison previously proposed, along with partners RedBird Capital Partners and KKR &amp; Co Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>), offered to purchase National Amusements for $2.25 billion and infuse $1.5 billion into Paramount to reduce its debt.
Ellison&#8217;s group would contribute an additional $4.5 billion to acquire Paramount shares.
The investment represents a crucial support for Paramount, which has faced challenges as consumers shift from traditional media to streaming services.
Earlier Tuesday, Bloomberg reported that Paramount is in exclusive talks to sell its Black Entertainment Television network. The potential buyers include BET CEO Scott Mills and Chinh Chu of CC Capital, with an offer range of $1.6 billion to $1.7 billion.
Paramount stock has lost more than 34% in the last 12 months.

NY Attorney General Secures Deal: DoorDash Offers Second Chance To Applicants With Criminal Records

AMC Networks Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMCX#NASDAQ">AMCX</a>)&nbsp;reported a fiscal first-quarter 2024 revenue decline of 16.9% year over year to $596.46 million, missing the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/05/g38756320/amc-networks-inc-reports-first-quarter-2024-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of $602.60 million</a>.
The American entertainment company's adjusted EPS of $1.16 fell 55.7% year over year and missed the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of $1.67</a>.&nbsp;The stock slid after the print.
Domestic Operations:&nbsp;Affiliate revenue decreased 14% due to&nbsp;basic&nbsp;subscriber declines. Advertising revenues decreased 13% Y/Y to $140 million due to anticipated linear ratings declines and a challenging ad market.&nbsp;
Content licensing revenues declined 40% to $62 million as the corresponding 2023 period included deliveries of&nbsp;AMC Studios-produced series&nbsp;Silo.
Despite these setbacks, AMC Networks reported that streaming subscribers increased by 2% to 11.5 million across its offerings, including AMC+, which added "<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/03/37472003/the-walking-dead-to-the-rescue-again-could-zombie-stock-amc-networks-come-to-life-with-new-" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live</a>" starring Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira.&nbsp;This&nbsp;is compared&nbsp;to 11.2 million subscribers as of March 31, 2023.
The company returned to streaming subscriber growth in the third quarter of 2023 after two quarters of declines, the Hollywood Reporter&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/amc-networks-q1-earnings-advertising-streaming-walking-dead-1235895528/" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Streaming revenues of $145 million increased 3%, primarily driven by year-over-year streaming subscriber growth and price increases.

Are Cinema's Finally Bouncing Back? Cinemark's Q1 Profit Paints A Bright Picture

Paramount Global&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) and Skydance Media are advancing towards a merger, with discussions to purchase out controlling shareholder Shari Redstone underway, CNBC&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/25/paramount-skydance-inch-closer-to-a-merger-agreement.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">cites</a>&nbsp;sources.
Paramount Global&#8217;s special committee and David Ellison&#8217;s Skydance Media, supported by private equity firms KKR and RedBird Capital Partners, are honing the valuation of Skydance&#8217;s assets for the merger and determining the equity to&nbsp;be added&nbsp;for recapitalization.
The parties are nearing an agreement on valuing Skydance at about $5 billion to merge with Paramount Global, CNBC writes.&nbsp;
Ellison and the supporting private equity firms intend to raise approximately $4.5 billion to $5 billion in new equity. Around $2 billion would go towards paying Redstone, with a significant amount also allocated for debt reduction.
The buyers are aiming to finalize the deal in May. However, delays in data provision by Paramount Global during due diligence have slightly postponed the timeline, according to three sources, CNBC notes.
The exclusivity period for merger discussions ends on May 3, but the Skydance consortium seeks a two-week extension.
Ellison is slated to become the CEO of the merged entity, Paramount Global, and former NBCUniversal CEO Jeff Shell will likely be appointed president. Current Paramount CEO Bob Bakish would leave the company.
The deal had&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/04/38219573/paramount-shareholders-express-concerns-over-potential-skydance-media-merger-any-merger-talks-th" rel="noreferrer noopener">sparked investor concerns</a>&nbsp;about the deal&#8217;s fairness and the exploration of alternative options. Not all shareholders&nbsp;are in favor of&nbsp;the potential $4 billion to $5 billion stock deal. Four Paramount directors departed amid Skydance merger discussions.

Paramount-Skydance Merger Talks Heat Up

The U.S. economy added 303,000 jobs last month. That data breezed past expectations for 205,000 job gains, according to FactSet consensus estimates, as quoted on CNBC. The unemployment rate in the United States dipped to 3.8% in March 2024 from the previous month&#39;s two-year high of 3.9% and surprising market expectations, which had forecasted the rate to remain unchanged.
Additionally, the labor force participation rate increased to 62.7% from a near one-year low of 62.5% in the preceding periods, and the employment-population ratio climbed to 60.3% from 60.1%. Below, we have highlighted some of the sectors that will likely see smooth trading in the days ahead in light of the strong March jobs data.
<h3>Sectors in Focus</h3>
Healthcare
Employment in the healthcare industry increased by 72,000 in jobs, above the average monthly gain of 60,000 over the prior 12 months. In March, job growth continued in ambulatory health care services (+28,000), hospitals (+27,000), and nursing and residential care facilities (+18,000).
Health Care Select Sector SPDR ETF (ARCA:XLV) can be played to tap the moderate momentum. HCA Healthcare (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hca#NYSE">HCA</a>), which has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) deserves a mention. It is the largest non-governmental operator of acute care hospitals in the United States.
Construction
In March, employment in construction (+39,000) was in line with the average monthly gain over the prior 12 months (+19,000). Over the month, employment increased in nonresidential specialty trade contractors (+16,000).
Investors can keep a watch on the price movement of Invesco Dynamic Building &amp; Construction ETF (ARCA:PKB). As far as the stock is concerned, Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) Dycom Industries (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/dy#NYSE">DY</a>) can be played. It is a leading provider of specialty contracting services throughout the United States.
Leisure
Employment in leisure and hospitality rose by 49,000. The industry has returned to its pre-pandemic February 2020 level. Over the past one year, job growth in the industry had averaged 37,000 per month.
The data makes Invesco Dynamic Leisure and Entertainment ETF (ARCA:PEJ) a timely investment. The Zacks Rank #2 Brinker International (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eat#NYSE">EAT</a>), owns, operates, develops and franchises various restaurants under Chili&#39;s Grill &amp; Bar (Chili&#39;s) and Maggiano&#39;s Little Italy (Maggiano&#39;s) brands.

This proposal is part of a broader review by Paramount&#8217;s independent committee.&nbsp;

Paramount&#8217;s studio, known for hits like &#8220;Top Gun: Maverick&#8221; and &#8220;A Quiet Place,&#8221; has attracted interest from various buyers over the years, including&nbsp;Netflix Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>).
However, Paramount Global&#8217;s primary stakeholder, Shari Redstone, and other board members have previously opposed selling the studio. Redstone, who is open to selling the entire company, faces a crucial decision regarding the potential division of Paramount to facilitate the studio&#8217;s sale.&nbsp;
The interest in Paramount&#8217;s studio stems from its extensive content library and the growing demand for new programming in the streaming sector, despite the decline of Paramount&#8217;s TV networks due to the shrinking cable business.
Simultaneously, Skydance Media, led by David Ellison, has proposed acquiring Paramount&#8217;s parent company, National Amusements, and merging with Paramount.&nbsp;
Ellison, supported by his father, Larry Ellison, co-founder of&nbsp;Oracle Corp&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>), is expected to finance the merger.&nbsp;
As Paramount&#8217;s directors review these offers, their challenge lies in ensuring any deal benefits all shareholders, not just National Amusements.
Amidst these developments, Paramount has explored other strategic options, including merger talks with&nbsp;Warner Bros. Discovery Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) and a potential streaming partnership or joint venture with&nbsp;Comcast Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>).&nbsp;
The company&#8217;s stock witnessed a significant rise following the announcement of Apollo&#8217;s bid, marking a sharp contrast to its prior performance this year.&nbsp;
Shari Redstone, who merged Viacom and CBS in 2019, creating Paramount Global, is at a pivotal juncture, considering the future direction of the media conglomerate her father, Sumner Redstone, built.
Previous reports indicated Paramount Global&#8217;s&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36721298/paramount-global-to-reduce-workforce-in-february-faces-acquisition-interest-and-internal-restructuri" rel="noreferrer noopener">downsizing plans across</a>&nbsp;divisions in February, less than initially speculated 800.&nbsp;
The streaming giants, including&nbsp;Walt Disney Co&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) and&nbsp;Netflix, Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>), battled subscriber loss amidst price hikes and cost-of-living pressures.&nbsp;

Paramount in the Spotlight, Apollo Global Management Bids Big For Film and TV Studio

Benchmark&nbsp;analyst Matthew Harrigan reiterated a Buy rating on&nbsp;Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) with a&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WBD/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $20</a>.
The re-rating follows this weekend's robust $81.5 million Dune: Part Two U.S. opening.&nbsp;
The market is averse to recognizing an ongoing turnaround at the Warner Bros. studio and a fair likelihood that DTC can generate sustainable $1 billion+ in EBITDA post-2025, Harrigan stated.
Assuming creative and strategic execution, Warner Bros. Discovery will benefit enormously from the studio/DTC/network triad with evergreen IP and an unparalleled film and TV library, somewhat moderating the linear rating and advertising decay rates as consumption gravitates toward streaming.&nbsp;
As per the analyst, the Harry Potter and Dune series will also benefit Maxm.&nbsp;
A re-architecture of the TV ecosystem toward hybrid pricing and continued global licensing should buttress the value of the legacy Discovery Networks non-fiction and lifestyle programming and sports with new original scripted shows as the most challenging element.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Dune: Part Two opened to a strong $81.5 million domestically, the best opening since last October for Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour film at $93 million, although it was likely to exceed the studio's conservative $65 million projection, Harrigan noted.&nbsp;
The global tally was $178 million, although it has yet to open in sci-fi receptive China and Japan.&nbsp;
It is a positive for Warner Bros., although the film admittedly cost $190 million to produce and ~$100 million to market, with economics shared with Legendary Pictures, as per the analyst.&nbsp;
The 2021 Dune: Part One release garnered $402 million globally, although this was depressed by Warner Bros.' pandemic hybrid approach with a simultaneous streaming debut with a 2x+ result plausible for the current release, Harrigan said.&nbsp;
Significantly, the spinoff series Dune: Prophecy will be on Max later in 2024, with the prequel exploring the origins of Dune.&nbsp;
According to Harrigan, Studio positives include the relaunch of the studio animation business under DreamWorks veteran Bill Damaschke, the new partnership with Tom Cruise, the start of filming on James Gunn's Superman movie under new DC leadership, and the rapprochement with J.K. Rowling supporting the new Harry Potter content for Max as early as 2026.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Harrigan projects first-quarter revenue and EBITDA of $10.35 billion and $2.14 billion, respectively.

Warner Bros. Discovery Poised for Turnaround With Strong IP and Streaming Strategy, Analyst Says

Thursday&#8217;s headline number in jobs growth — 199,000 in November, beating expectations of around 180,000 — appeared to take the shine off <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/23/12/36152500/november-jobs-report-outruns-expectations-unemployment-drops-jeopardizing-rate-cu">hopes for a raft of interest rate cuts next year</a>. 
But the big number may have been flattered by thousands of workers returning to the labor force following recent strikes.
Equity indices were flat at the open on Wall Street, while the dollar climbed — an indication that some rate cut bets were being taken off the table. A stronger labor market would appear to undermine concerns of the fragility of the U.S. economy.
A deeper dive into the numbers, however, suggests there are still areas of stress, particularly surrounding the main cog of economic activity — the consumer.
But first, let&#8217;s look at the big number, and why it so significantly beat the prior month&#8217;s 150,000 new jobs and surpassed the 180,000 average forecast by analysts.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strikers Returning To The Workforce</h2>
Employment in the manufacturing sector of Thursday&#8217;s report, compiled by the U.S. Bureau Of Labor Statistics (BLS), rose by a net 28,000. 
But this also reflected the return of 30,000 workers in the motor vehicles and parts sector from a strike by United Auto Workers members. The headline jobs number for October was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/11/35594693/much-needed-cooling-off-or-risk-on-rally-ahead-yields-tumble-bonds-gain-after-octob">negatively affected by the loss of the UAW members</a>.
The iShares U.S. Industrials ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYJ#BATS">IYJ</a>), which tracks companies in the US manufacturing sector, was up 0.3% in early trade.
A further 17,000 jobs added in the information sector of the BLS survey was primarily down to the return to work of striking Hollywood screenwriters and actors.
Thus, the headline jobs growth number of 199,000 was flattered by nearly 50,000 workers who were only temporarily missing from the workforce.
&#8220;The equity market, which has been consolidating gains over the last few sessions, will need to decipher whether the stronger-than-expected print is due primarily to the return of striking workers, or more indicative of a seemingly entrenched resilient economic foundation that has consistently surprised to the upside,&#8221; said Quincy Krosby, economist for LPL Financial.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trouble In Stores</h2>
Perhaps the most troubling news came from the retail sector, with 38,000 jobs lost — half of them from department stores. The BLS has now reported net job losses in the retail sector in four out of the last five employment reports.
&#8220;The reported 38K drop in retail jobs in November — the worst since November last year — might be a sign that retailers are already nervous,&#8221; said Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.
Retail sales have seen only tepid growth over the last six months and, in October, sales fell by 0.1%.
The SPDR S&amp;P Retail ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XRT#NYSE">XRT</a>), which tracks retail stocks on the S&amp;P 500, was up 0.6% in early trade.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Round-Up Of The Rest</h2>
<ul>
<li>Health care added the most jobs in November, with a rise of 77,000, beating the average monthly gain of 54,000 over the prior 12 months.</li>
<li>The Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLV#NYSE">XLV</a>) was up 0.1% in early trade.</li>
<li>Employment in leisure and hospitality rose by 40,000, falling from its 12-month average of +51,000, with almost all the jobs created in restaurants and bars.</li>
<li>The Invesco Dynamic Leisure and Entertainment ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEJ#NYSE">PEJ</a>) was up 1.8%</li>

UAW's Return To Work Pushes US Jobs Growth Higher, But Dark Clouds Hover Over Retail Sector

One of the biggest trends to watch in 2021 continues to be the reopening of the economy as it relates to the increased rate of COVID-19 vaccinations and the lifting of restrictions in areas across the U.S. and globally.
Restaurants Could Benefit: One industry that saw pressure during the pandemic and could benefit from the reopening trend are&nbsp;restaurants.
Several industry leaders have <a href="https://twitter.com/jonathanmaze/status/1404896377566601216">pointed out</a>&nbsp;restaurant spending has surpassed grocery spending for the first time in a while.
Restaurant spending has also <a href="https://en.as.com/en/2021/06/16/latest_news/1623847509_444848.html">passed </a>pre-pandemic levels in May, suggesting that consumers are opting to dine out once again.
Some are even calling for additional stimulus checks that could boost restaurant spending even further in the latter half of 2021.
Here are several ETFs offering exposure to restaurant stocks&nbsp;investors could consider.
AdvisorShares Restaurant ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eatz#NYSE">EATZ</a>): This&nbsp;newly launched ETF <a href="https://advisorshares.com/etfs/eatz/">focuses </a>100%&nbsp;on restaurants.&nbsp;Launched&nbsp;April 20, it&nbsp;has a tagline of &ldquo;Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is.&rdquo;&nbsp;
The ETF is split fairly evenly with 35% of assets in large-cap stocks, 34% in mid-cap stocks and 31% in small-cap stocks. Top holdings in the fund include Chuy&rsquo;s Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/chuy#NASDAQ">CHUY</a>) at 5.6%, Ruth&rsquo;s Hospitality Group, Inc.

March Madness Fuels Restaurant Business Across US; Stocks And ETFs In Sector Could Get A Bounce

The U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/restaurants">restaurant</a> industry ended 2020 with 2.5 million fewer jobs and more than 110,000 eating and drinking establishments were either temporarily closed or shut down for good, the National Restaurant Association says in a report.
Job Losses: The majority of restaurants and bars that closed in 2020 were &quot;well-established&quot; businesses that have been operating for an average of 16 years, the restaurant association said in its report titled &quot;2021 State of the Restaurant Industry.&quot; Unfortunately, 16% of restaurants that closed in 2020 had been operating for at least 30 years.
On average, a restaurant that closed employed 32 people, while 17% of restaurants kept at least 50 people employed.
Nearly three out of four restaurant owners who&nbsp;closed their business for good have no immediate desire to <a href="https://www.elluminatiinc.com/restaurant-opening-checklist/">open a new restaurant in</a> the months ahead. Only 48% of owners plan on staying in the food industry in some capacity in the months and years ahead.
State Of The Industry Today: The restaurant and foodservice industry entered 2020 on track to represent 10% of all payroll jobs in the economy, according to the association. But 62% of fine dining operators and 54% of family dining and casual dining operators indicate their staff levels are more than 20% below normal in early 2021.
Approximately 2 million fewer 16 to 34-year-olds are working in the industry today compared to pre-pandemic levels.
&quot;Restaurants were hit harder than any other industry during the pandemic, and still have the longest climb back to pre-coronavirus employment levels,&quot; the report stated.
Menu Innovation For 2021: Restaurant owners continue to adapt their menu items to stay relevant in the consumer&#39;s mind. Half of casual and family dining operators and 63% of fine-dining operators are offering fewer items on the menu today compared to pre-pandemic.
Consumers want to transact with restaurants that offer a simplified menu with a good selection of comfort foods and/or restaurants with healthier options, according to the report. The availability of alcohol was also highlighted as an important addition to a take-out menu.
Pent Up Demand: There is &quot;no doubt&quot; that consumers want to return to restaurants as it represents an &quot;integral part of our social fabric.&quot; Nearly nine out of 10 adults enjoy going to restaurants and 85% of them saying dining out is a better way to spend their time than cooking and cleaning at home.
&quot;Restaurants are the cornerstone of our communities, and our research shows a clear consumer desire to enjoy restaurants on-premises more than they have been able to during the pandemic,&quot;&nbsp;said Hudson Riehle, senior vice president of National Restaurant Association&#39;s Research and Knowledge Group. &quot;We&#39;ve also found that even as the vaccine becomes more available and more social occasions return to restaurants, consumers will continue to desire expanded off-premises options going forward. Both will continue to be key for industry growth.
&quot;With more than half of adults saying that restaurants are an essential part of their lifestyle, we are confident that, with time, the industry is positioned for successful recovery.&quot;

Will Restaurants Recover In 2021?

There are going to be three key themes for the coming year, 2021, which will make some ETFs very attractive &mdash;&nbsp;something investors should keep an eye on &mdash;&nbsp;as per&nbsp;Ned Davis Research&rsquo;s Senior Portfolio Strategist Pat Tschosik.
Cannabis sector under the Democratic President-elect Joe Biden,&nbsp;the impact of Covid-19 vaccine manufacturing and distribution, and the electric vehicles segment are expected to emerge as the key themes for 2021, Tschosik said, as <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/06/using-etfs-to-play-three-likely-big-themes-for-2021green-wave-covid-recovery-biden-agenda-ned-davis-breaks-down-how-to-play-these-themes-in-2021.html">reported</a> by CNBC.
Legalized Cannabis Under Joe Biden&rsquo;s Term: Tschosik believes that with the Democratic party at the helm of affairs, cannabis stocks may witness significant tailwinds in 2021. During the elections, four states, namely New Jersey, Arizona, South Dakota, and Montana <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/20/11/18347489/2020-ballot-results-where-is-weed-legal">legalized</a> the possession and use of marijuana.
The Ned Davis Research&rsquo;s strategist opines that furthering cannabis legalization on a nationwide level will not only be seen as a progressive agenda of the party but also generate a new model for tax collections on a state level.
The analyst recommends buying Global X Cannabis ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/potx#NASDAQ">POTX</a>), which has gained 44.76%&nbsp;since the election day, and&nbsp;iShares US Healthcare Providers ETF&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ihf#NYSE">IHF</a>) &mdash; up&nbsp;10% in the same period, to gain exposure to the sector.
Since Nov. 3,&nbsp;Canopy Growth Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cgc#NASDAQ">CGC</a>) stock is up 39.7%, Aurora Cannabis Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/acb#NYSE">ACB</a>) by 122%, and Tilray Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tlry#NASDAQ">TLRY</a>) by 30%.
Impact of COVID-19 Vaccine: The news of multiple successful vaccine candidates is spurring hawkish market sentiments. These sentiments are not just restricted to healthcare companies, but also other businesses like retail stores, amusement parks, cinema halls, travel, and tourism, that suffered during the lockdown.
Stocks of travel and leisure companies are set for a rebound next year and Ned Davis Research strategist believes that&nbsp;Invesco Dynamic Leisure &amp; Entertainment ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pej#NYSE">PEJ</a>) and&nbsp;US Global Jets ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jets#NYSE">JETS</a>) provide key exposure to the sector. Both the ETF&#39;s have dropped this year, with PEJ by 15% and JETS by 26%.&nbsp;
Movie theatre chain AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amc#NYSE">AMC</a>) stock is up 50% since Nov. 3 and Walt Disney Company&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/dis#NYSE">DIS</a>) by 24%. Airliner United Airlines Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ual#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) has risen 44% since the election day. Vacation rental booking company Airbnb Inc&nbsp;is also reportedly targeting a valuation of up to $42 billion in its upscaled IPO amid high demand.
Electric Vehicles,&nbsp;Renewable Energy Sources: Tschosik believes that the next year could be marked by a systematic growth in the electric vehicles and clean energy segment, CNBC reports. &ldquo;Clean energy momentum could continue for decades given the backing from both governments and private industry,&rdquo; as per the analyst.
The senior strategist lists two promising ETFs - the First Trust NASDAQ Clean Edge Green Energy (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qcln#NASDAQ">QCLN</a>) and&nbsp;Global X Autonomous &amp; Electric Vehicles ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/driv#NASDAQ">DRIV</a>) as buys for exposure to the sector. On a year-to-date basis, QCLN has gained close to 142%&nbsp;and DRIV by approximately 51%.
EV market leader Tesla Inc&rsquo;s (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock has jumped close to 600% since the beginning of the year. The stock rallied stronger in the second half of August and then in the second half of November.
Many Chinese EV companies raised funds from IPO listings in the U.S this year. Xpeng Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/xpev#NYSE">XPEV</a>), an EV company backed by Chinese tech giant Alibaba Group Holdings (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/baba#NYSE">BABA</a>), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/08/17282493/alibaba-backed-ev-maker-xpeng-shoots-up-41-on-nyse-debut-after-1-5b-ipo">generated</a> $1.5 billion from the IPO in late August. Li Auto Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/li#NASDAQ">LI</a>) secured $1.1 billion from the IPO offering in July.

Invesco Dynamic Leisure and Entertainment ETF declares quarterly distribution of $0.0176

Invesco Dynamic Leisure and Entertainment ETF declares quarterly distribution of $0.1715

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Several different food-related exchange traded funds (ETFs) are available that dabble in <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/consumer-discretionary/retail/restaurant/">restaurant stocks</a>.&nbsp;The largest is the Invesco Leisure and Entertainment ETF (NYSEARCA:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/pej-stock-quote/">PEJ</a>), with net assets of <a href="https://www.invesco.com/us/financial-products/etfs/product-detail?audienceType=Institutional&amp;ticker=PEJ">$298 million</a>. However, only four out of its 31 holdings are pure-play restaurant stocks.&nbsp;



An industry-specific ETF to select for restaurant stocks would be the AdvisorShares Restaurant ETF (NYSEARCA:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/eatz-stock-quote/">EATZ</a>). With an appropriately designated stock symbol, EATZ is actively managed and is entirely made up of restaurant chains, except for a couple of food distributors. However, it has less than <a href="https://advisorshares.com/etfs/eatz/">$3 million</a> in net assets, so I wouldn&rsquo;t recommend you buy it.



PEJ and EATZ are up 10% and 6% year-to-date (YTD), with EATZ gaining more than 28% in the past six months, a sign restaurant stocks are on the mend. With this in mind, here are three restaurant stocks that analysts love right now.&nbsp;



<h2>Yum China Holdings (YUMC)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/yumc-stock-1-300x169.jpg" alt="A banner for Yum China (YUMC) decorates the New York Stock Exchange."><div>Source: rblfmr / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Yum China Holdings (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/yumc-stock-quote/">YUMC</a>) is the largest of the three restaurant stocks on this list, with a market capitalization of $15.5 billion. Of the <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/yumc/analystestimates">33 analysts</a> covering its stock, 22 rate it a &ldquo;buy,&rdquo; with a median target price of $55.07, 43% higher than where it&rsquo;s currently trading.



YUMC is China&rsquo;s operator of KFC and Pizza Hut. But unfortunately, the Chinese population hasn&rsquo;t been dining out as often due to higher inflation in 2023 and a sputtering domestic economy. This has severely reduced Yum China&rsquo;s same-store sales growth.&nbsp;



As a result, YUMC shares are down nearly 40% over the past year. YUMC stock trades at one of the lowest points since Yum Brands (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/yum-stock-quote/">YUM</a>) spun it off in <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/ywang/2016/11/01/yum-brands-spins-off-china-unit-in-new-york-amid-losses-in-market-share/?sh=59e099e74b97">November 2016</a>. As recently as March 2023, it traded well over $60.&nbsp;



The company reported strong <a href="https://yumchinaholdingsinc.gcs-web.com/static-files/4a653df7-310b-4190-97c2-384b0189032d">2023 results</a> in February, including a 21% increase in system-wide sales, 7% same-store sales growth, opening nearly 1,700 new stores and an operating profit of $1.1 billion, 79% higher than a year earlier.&nbsp;&nbsp;



Due to the strong year, it plans to buy back $1.25 billion of its stock in 2024 and increase its quarterly dividend to 16 cents. It also plans to open up to 1,700 stores this year to reach 20,000 by the end of 2026. It finished 2023 with 14,644 in over 2,000 cities.&nbsp;



With a bright future ahead, YUMC is one of the restaurant stocks that has value right now.&nbsp;



<h2>Arcos Dorados (ARCO)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/mdc-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="McDonald's restaurant in Thailand."><div>Source: Tama2u / Shutterstock</div></div>Arcos Dorados (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/arco-stock-quote/">ARCO</a>) is the second-largest of the three restaurant stocks, with a market cap of $2.4 billion. All <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/arco/analystestimates">six analysts</a> covering its stock rate it a &ldquo;buy,&rdquo; with a median target price of $14.30, 27% higher than where it&rsquo;s currently trading.&nbsp;



Just as Yum China focuses on KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants in China, Arcos focuses on McDonald&rsquo;s (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mcd-stock-quote/">MCD</a>) restaurants in Latin America and the Caribbean.&nbsp;



It is the region&rsquo;s largest restaurant chain, with <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240313225693/en/Arcos-Dorados-Reports-Strong-Fourth-Quarter-and-Full-Year-2023-Financial-Results">2,361 locations</a> as of Dec. 31, 2023. The company owns 71% of them, and the rest are franchised. Approximately 48% of its locations are in Brazil, with the remainder split between northern and southern Latin America.&nbsp;&nbsp;



In 2023, it had $4.33 billion in revenue, up 19.6% from 2022. Its net income was $181.3 million, 29.2% higher than a year earlier.&nbsp;It trades at a reasonable 13x its 2023 earnings of 86 cents. McDonald&rsquo;s trades at <a href="https://www.morningstar.com/stocks/xnys/mcd/valuation">23.3x </a>earnings, almost double.



I <a href="https://investorplace.com/2023/01/the-3-best-south-american-stocks-to-buy-in-2023/">recommended</a> ARCO stock in January 2023 at $8.70 a share. It&rsquo;s up 29% since. It&rsquo;s still a buy in double digits.&nbsp;



<h2>Portillo&rsquo;s (PTLO)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/ptlo-stock-1-300x169.jpg" alt="The front of a Portillo's (PTLO) hotdog restaurant in Riverside, California."><div>Source: TonelsonProductions / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Portillo&rsquo;s (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ptlo-stock-quote/">PTLO</a>) is the smallest of the three restaurant stocks, with a market capital of $967 million. Seven of the <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/ptlo/analystestimates">10 analysts</a> covering its stock rate it a &ldquo;buy,&rdquo; with a median target price of $21.11, 59% higher than where it&rsquo;s currently trading.&nbsp;



All three of the restaurant stocks on this list are down in 2024, with Portillo&rsquo;s doing the worst, down by 15%. The operator of fast-casual restaurants serving Chicago-style food went public in October 2021 at <a href="https://investors.portillos.com/news-releases/news-release-details/portillos-inc-announces-pricing-initial-public-offering">$20 a share</a>. Its shares currently trade 34% below its initial public offering (IPO) pricing.&nbsp;



When it went public, it had 67 locations in nine states. Today, <a href="https://investors.portillos.com/news-releases/news-release-details/portillos-inc-announces-fourth-quarter-and-fiscal-year-2023">84</a> are open in 10 states, up from 72 at the end of 2022. In 2023, it opened locations in Arizona, Florida, Illinois and Texas. In 2024, it plans to open at least nine locations.



For its business in 2024, Portillo&rsquo;s expects 12-15% restaurant unit growth, same-store sales growth in the low single digits revenue growth in the mid-teens and adjusted EBITDA growth in the low teens.



In late March, Jefferies analysts <a href="https://www.investing.com/news/company-news/portillos-stock-pt-cut-but-jefferies-maintains-buy-on-solid-fundamentals-93CH-3356826">cut</a> Portillo&rsquo;s price target by $3 to $21. However, it maintained its &ldquo;buy&rdquo; rating on the stock, suggesting that the company will continue to be successful with its expansion plans outside the Chicago area. Skeptics have overstated concerns about the restaurant operator&rsquo;s financials and business, but I think it&rsquo;s another value buy.

Wall Street Favorites: 3 Restaurant Stocks With Strong Buy Ratings for April 2024

Paramount's Sale Still A 'Twilight Zone' Mess

Invesco Dynamic Leisure and Entertainment ETF declares quarterly distribution of $0.0050

As the holiday shopping season approaches, consumer discretionary ETFs are becoming an attractive investment option as they offer broad exposure to major retail players. ETFs such as Invesco Dynamic Leisure and Entertainment ETF (PEJ), Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index ETF (FDIS), and Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLY) stand to benefit from increased holiday sales. Read on… Consumer-discretionary stocks are widely known as consumer cyclical stocks, as they tend to be sensitive to economic cycles. Despite the inflationary pressures, we have seen consumer discretion to be resilient in recent years. As the holiday season approaches, consumer discretionary stocks are gaining momentum, and companies are bracing for increased demand.
Given the probable spike in consumer activities, three such ETFs are well positioned for investors to invest in, like Invesco Dynamic Leisure and Entertainment ETF (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/PEJ/">PEJ</a>), Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index ETF (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/FDIS/">FDIS</a>), and The Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/XLY/">XLY</a>).
According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), consumer spending in the month of July 2024 <a href="https://www.bea.gov/taxonomy/term/706">was up by 0.5%</a> or $103.80 billion, compared to June month's spending increase of $57.60 billion. This rise in consumer spending is the broader trend in the economy: rising consumer confidence and disposable income.
<a href="https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/pages/about-deloitte/articles/press-releases/Deloitte-Holiday-Retail-Sales-2024-2025.html">Deloitte's forecast</a> suggests that this year retail sales are anticipated to increase between 2.3% and 3.3% during the holiday season. With e-commerce sales continuing to grow, particularly during the holidays, ETFs that include major online retailers stand to gain the most.
Consumer discretionary ETFs offer diversification, reducing the risk. This diversification offers a more balanced risk profile, which is especially crucial when the market is volatile. Furthermore, this makes ETFs a smart bet ahead of the shopping rush.
With that in mind, let's evaluate the fundamentals of the featured <a href="https://stocknews.com/category/consumer-focused-etfs/">Consumer-Focused ETFs</a>, starting with number three:
