Confident Investor comments: At this price and at this time, I do not think that a Confident Investor can confidently invest in this stock.

By any analysis that I can do on this company (which is officially called Biglari Holdings and not Steak n Shake) I cannot see how investors can justify its current price. In every respect, I feel like this company is significantly over-priced. I have never recommended to short a company on this site until now but if there was any company that you should short, it would be this company.
