0906 ET - Shake Shack's management may need some time to restore confidence in its margin outlook now that margin volatility has increased amid higher energy and beef inflation, says Raymond James's Brian Vaccaro, who downgrades the stock to overweight from strong buy. Still, Vaccaro says sales have improved following April's weakness and that the company has significant long-term unit growth opportunities following its improvements in operations. Additionally, the company is trading at just about an all-time low valuation, which should limit any downside risk, he says. Shares fall 1.4% premarket. (nicholas.miller@wsj.com)
