I’ve been a fan of Potbelly Sandwich Shop since 2006 when there was one next door to my workplace. Today, I work from home, and there just happens to be one just outside of my neighborhood. After all these years, I’m still a fan, so I’d like to invest in them.
Although the stock price for Potbelly (ticker: PBPB) has run up more than 50% over the past year, it’s down about 40% over the past five years. With a market cap of $227 million, I don’t think the stock is too expensive at this point.
I made a $1K bet on Potbelly Sandwich Shop and plan on holding onto it for at least five years before reassessing. I think the restaurant chain has a great future ahead of it.
