The 3 Worst-Performing Restaurant Stocks of 2017
2017 will go down as year two of the "restaurant recession," an industry-induced slump caused by heavy competition from restaurant over-expansion. Many chains turned in lackluster performances thanks to falling foot traffic, but some had a downright awful year. Excluding the small fry of publicly traded companies and looking just at companies with market caps over $200 million, The Habit Restaurants (NASDAQ: HABT) did the worst in 2017 as of this writing, and Fiesta Restaurant Group (NASDAQ: FRGI) and DineEquity (NYSE: DIN) are neck-and-neck for taking the spot as second-worst-performer.
