What's ahead?
According to Atlas Funds Management chief investment officer Hugh Dive, Domino's pizza is due for a boost.
Despite not owning shares in the company, Dive predicted Domino's could be "well placed to do quite well". He added in an interview with livewire:
Bit of a caveat, similar to Hugh, we don't own Domino's.
But I think that they'll be well placed to do quite well.
At a recent strategy presentation in Tokyo, Japan, the company announced the appointment of two new executives to boost sales in the continent.
