Get your own slice Plus: "A rising rate environment" Greg Guenthner coming to you from Baltimore, MD... Hungry? Got a Twitter account? Good, then order us some pizza... Yes, thanks to the wonders of technology you can now order a ninth-rate pizza from Dominos by simply tweeting a picture of a pizza. Think I'm joking? "Customers who add their Twitter handle to their Domino's Pizza Profile will be able to re-order their Easy Order by simply tweeting #EasyOrder or the pizza emoji to @Dominos," a pizza PR person explains. "Domino's will then send their Easy Order through an automated direct message, which customers must confirm." This isn't the stupidest thing I've ever read in my life. But it's close. And I'm not sure why anyone would want to eat Domino's at all--whether it's ordered thru emoji or the old-fashioned way. But I'm serious about this: for whatever reason, we're in a pizza bull market. And you could be looking at big gains over the next several months if this trend plays out like it could... And it's not just Domino's that's rolling in the dough: Dominos--despite its newfangled Twitter ordering system--isn't even the best performing pizza chain of the bunch. Papa Johns is up nearly 25% over the past six months. And Yum! Brands has rocketed higher by more than 34%. That's some serious performance from these pizza giants (Yum! Brands the parent company of Pizza Hut, in case you didn't know). And keep in mind the S&P 500 is only up about 5% over this exact same timeframe. So if you've been long cheap pizza you've absolutely crushed the market. But here's the good news--I think these greasy pizza stocks have a lot more room to run. Remember, I told you last week that while retail sales came in flat overall there was one major bright spot. Spending at restaurants was higher. Folks are eating out in record numbers. And these cheap pizza joints are a great way to play the trend. So skip the delivery and the pizza emojis on you smart phone. Order up some of these hot shares instead... Our Richest President Ever?

When to Sell "If you think interest rates are not rising you are living in another world," a reader says. "Rates have turned up and have been rising for a few weeks... The 30 year bond is trying to establish a rate above 3.0%. When it gets too far ahead of itself it gets knocked back. Push and pull. It is an attempt to do it in an orderly manner. Keep the other eye on oil, precious metals and the dollar." You're right--things could get interesting before the year is up. And yes, rates have been sneaking higher lately. But just keep in mind that all the smartest guys in the room have been squawking about rising rates for a few years now. And it hasn't really happened yet. Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves and see where the market takes us... [Ed.
