Papa John's, Applebee's And Others Pay Huge Price For Anti-Obamacare Politicking

Your data really had nothing to do with the drop in the brandindex at the time. As I said, sure their brandindex recovered once these ideologues shut up and backtracked their stupid comments and stopped making them altogether. That is not surprising to anyone.

Now if you had read my OP, you'd see that I said that making these stupid comments didn't sit well with the public and I was exactly right. The fact that these business eventually recovered for the most part is a pretty moot point and I felt no need to address a pointless post and just assumed that you felt that you needed to post something even if it was irrelevant. Now you have done that and you can sit smugly in a corner and pat yourself on the back. I won't bother you.

 

No, ding-a-ling, there was no "recovery" since there was nothing to recover from! Read the data.

 

So you are ignoring MY data in post #2 and stating that there was nothing to recover from? Hum? You use the same source Brandindex and only disregard it when it doesn't fit your silly narrative. Again...Hum?

 

I pointed out that profits didn't drop below the point they were before Schnatter made his comment. Profits were up consistently after that. So, exactly what "recovery" are you talking about?
