Believe it or not, shares of Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) are up an incredible 47% in 2023 alone. This compares to a 7.7% gain for the S 500 during this same period. Chipotle has been flexing its pricing power, driving increased traffic to its stores even as it raises its prices. Investors apparently love what Chipotle is doing. The restaurant's resilient sales growth during a challenging macroeconomic environment is a testament to the burrito maker's appeal to both existing and new customers.
