Yum Brands Inc Is Not Looking Tasty Yet, Know This Trade Level

One of the leading restaurant stocks in the market is Yum! Brands Inc (NYSE:YUM). Yum Brands operates the KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell restaurants. Today, YUM stock is declining lower by $1.65 to $77.66 a share. Traders should note that the stock was defended at its 200-day moving average last week. Should YUM stock trade and close below this important 200-day moving average at $76.72 it would likely signal another leg lower in the stock.
The next major support level for YUM stock would be around the $72.80 level. This level was major support in late September 2017 and will likely serve as support again if retested. This price area would be where I would look to step into the stock on the long side. YUM stock is now on my radar.
