If so, it’d be a perfect time to buy.
Stock market goes up a little and will drop unexpectedly like a rock at some point. It is a game of not reality, but of perception and when a little reality creeps in you get problems and lots of lost investment capital. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.
A company has drastically cut its costs.
Of course its value will plummet, that’s basic economics!
Stock up .. Captain obvious.
FReegards!
Next is the “equalization of opportunity act” and after that outlawing quitting or firing to taking any new jobs.
Going Galt becomes a matter of survival.
2014 is not a end goal.
2014 is a skirmish in a longer battle.
2014 is a chance to reduce the leftist/democrats/communist/statists in government and also isolate the rinos more.
We have successfully tilted the debate. (win or lose in the primaries)

I wish their price for 2 burgers + 2 Fries would drop
If you REALLY still want to short BK, you could always buy PUT futures contracts. I’d advise LEAPS (the long term ones).
But personally, I think shorting BK at this point is extremely risky. This merger may work to their advantage or in the worst case be simply neutral. Besides I think so many “players” act irrationally that even being right about an outcome doesn’t mean that what should happen will happen in the market.
For example, I believe Microsoft has been self-destructing for a few years due to excruciatingly bad management, and I see no evidence that that trend is reversing, and yet the stock market is fat, dumb, and happy with Microsoft.
