Shares of the online travel company rose 5.5% on Monday, higher than the 4% gains on Friday following its quarterly report.

Cava Group Inc. (CAVA) shares fell over 22% in after-hours trading on Tuesday, after the Mediterranean-style restaurant chain missed comparable sales estimates for the second quarter and lowered its view for the full year.If the losses hold in Wednesday's session, it would mark the stock's worst session decline on record. <a href="https://stocktwits.com/RoggyLin/message/624775529">Cava</a> was among the top five trending tickers on Stocktwits late Tuesday.The performance is another indicator of the softness in the restaurant sector, as high inflation and economic uncertainty prompt consumers to curb dining out.Cava was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in June 2023. As of their last close, its shares are down about 50% from their all-time high in November 2024, and 25% down year-to-date.The company now expects same-store sales growth of 4% to 6% this year, down from its prior range of 6% to 8%.In the second quarter, revenue rose 20% to $280.6 million, just shy of analysts' estimate of $285.5 million.

"Same store sales could be flat to negative but honestly the market might overlook this. This is a longer term play and the CEO is a smart dude. I'd say it moves towards $100 after earnings."<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/RoggyLin/message/624775529</stembedurl>Rival restaurant chains have also struggled this quarter. Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/chipotle-stock-slumps-on-forecast-cut-q2-sales-miss-retail-smells-buying-opportunity/ch8yNkRR5uZ">reported</a> same-store sales declines, while salad chain Sweetgreen (SG) <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/consumers-ditching-15-salads-sweetgreen-stock-nosedives-after-full-year-outlook-cut-but-retail-stays-hopeful/chrVwJZRd3n">cut its outlook</a> for the second straight quarter.The Future Fund managing partner, Gary Black, noted the similarity in commentary with Chipotle and Sweetgreen after Cava blamed its earnings miss on “ongoing uncertainty among consumers.”“At 2025 P/E of 147x, the miss will get amplified by both the likely decline in FY’25 estimates and a downward re-rating of the multiple,” he <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/garyblack00/status/1955368174553010227">said</a> on X.According to Koyfin data, CAVA’s forward price-to-earnings ratio is a lot higher than CMG’s 32.7x or even Wingstop Inc.’s 76.4x.Cava said it opened 16 new restaurants in the quarter, taking the total to over 400. The company also announced that it is investing in food-robotics startup Hyphen, which automates the portioning of plates and bowls.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Expedia Group (EXPE) shares surged over 17% in extended trading on Thursday, among the highest in the S&amp;P 500, after the travel booking company raised its full-year target.If the after-hours gains carry over into Friday, the stock could be on its way to its best session in four months.Expedia said its upgraded outlook, coming on the heels of stronger-than-expected Q2 results, is driven by a sharp rebound in business travel demand alongside a modest recovery among U.S. consumers.Booking Holdings (BKNG) and Airbnb (ABNB) also reported better-than-expected quarterly results recently, although both companies offered cautious outlooks. Broadly, online travel companies are seeing a rebound in activity, driven by international travel, with U.S. demand showing signs of improvement beginning in July."Outside of the U.S., the market was quite healthy. Inside the U.S., it was softer,"&nbsp;Expedia CEO Ariane Gorin told Bloomberg in an interview."There was a bit of a bifurcation between travelers at the high end of the market that were still traveling, and then at the lower end of the market, where there was a bit more of wait and see."On Stocktwits, the retail sentiment for Expedia shifted to 'extremely bullish' as of late Thursday, from 'neutral' the previous day, with message volume rising 2,300% in the past 24 hours."Buy all you can, forward guidance is rocking!" a user said.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/SmashingStocks/message/624245414</stembedurl>However, a few users also cautioned that the stock might not sustain the gains in Friday's session, comparing it to a similar move in DoorDash's shares this week.According to another user, the adjusted EPS beat was modest, while GAAP EPS actually declined, raising doubts over whether the after-hours share move is justified.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Huck18/message/624239984</stembedurl>On Thursday, Expedia said it now expects 2025 revenue to rise 3% to 5%, up from its previous forecast of 2% to 4% growth.
