FINALLY! Grover's Milton restaurant opening Thursday. Here's a sneak peek inside
The wait is over for Milton's new Grover's, which is set to open to the public at 6 a.m. on July 24 at 5614 Stewart St., following over a year of eager community anticipation. The sparkling new Milton restaurant will carry over the old-school diner feel of the original location, Grover's Fingers & Wings at 9418 N. Davis Highway, but now with a drive-thru, glittery cherry red booths, black-and-white checkered floors and quadruple the seating. Now that the new restaurant is finally gearing up to welcome customers inside, the original location will temporarily close for renovations beginning on July 23 to undergo a makeover to match the new store. They plan to reopen the Pensacola store as quickly as possible and will post updates on Grover's social media regarding the timeline. While the Milton restaurant was custom-built from the ground up, thanks to homebuilder Mike Price, who partnered with owner Michael Graham on the Milton restaurant, they didn't want to lose the old-fashioned feel that customers loved most, but rather enhance it. Grover's is a Pensacola fan-favorite: Pensacola's hidden gem, Grover's Fingers and Wings, not so hidden anymore The Milton menu will remain the same, with many options priced under $10, including their signature country-fried steak sandwich, Grover cheeseburger, or a half order of house-made biscuits and gravy. But doesn't an old-fashioned ice cream sundae taste better to the tune of a 1940s Wurlitzer jukebox? When creating the design, Graham and Price worked to enhance all the nostalgia the previous location offered, while offering upgrades, such as significantly expanding the kitchen space. The new restaurant features two separate kitchens: one for handling drive-thru orders and the other for in-house orders. While the layout mirrors the smaller Davis Highway store, it extends about 10 feet longer with twice the equipment so that customers can get their food fast. In addition to the vast array of seating inside, there will also be about 18 picnic tables to enjoy a sandwich or a sweet tea out on the front porch. To start, the restaurant will be open daily from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day, with plans to eventually transition into a 6 a.m. to midnight schedule. Once the longer hours take effect, breakfast items will be available all day, according to Graham. As Graham and Price make final preparations to welcome law enforcement and family inside for a first run on July 23, they look forward to welcoming the public on July 24 when they will switch the traffic light sign on the outside of the building from red to green.

The path is set for the S&P 500 to reach a new record as soon as this week
Stocks pushed higher on Monday as the S & P 500 continues to chip away at the gap to a new record high. Several events in the days ahead could prove to be the catalyst that vaults it over the top. The index is now about 2% below its record closing high of 6,144.15, set on Feb. 19. With the S & P 500 already seeing six days this year with a gain of at least 2%, the gap could be closed in one quick rally. .SPX YTD mountain The S & P 500 is about 2% below its record high from February. That move could be fueled by positive headlines on the trade front, with U.S. and Chinese officials meeting in London on Monday. Economic data could also provide a boost, with inflation readings on Wednesday and Thursday expected to show modest increases in prices, according to economists' estimates compiled by Dow Jones. Those developments will strike a market that appears primed to move higher, according to the JPMorgan trading desk. "For this week, we reiterate our tactical bullish call. Look for Techspeak to be supportive of Mag7/Semis, U.S./China talks to be positive for broader markets, and an inline CPI print to keep bond yields from surging which is supportive of Equities. Positioning suggests that we may see a combination of extending winners but also squeezes in the higher beta areas of the market. The SPX's all-time high is 2.4% away and we think we take that out this week or next," JPMorgan's data assets & alpha group said in the trading desk note Monday morning. To be sure, there's always a chance that the trade talks with China could break down or that inflation data comes in hotter-than-expected, resulting in a stock market sell-off. Investors also can't count out an unexpected twist — either positive or negative — coming from the White House. "Markets in the short term are levered to the whims and utterances of one unpredictable person (President Trump), perhaps to the greatest extent in history," Michael Graham, analyst at Canaccord Genuity, said in a research note Monday. — CNBC's Michael Bloom contributed reporting.

How the stock market typically performs during the summer
Memorial Day weekend marked the unofficial start to summer in the U.S., a notable period for investors who like to, as the market adage goes, " sell in May and go away ." Interestingly, a look back over the last 50 years at the S & P 500 's performance shows the three-month stretch from the Friday before Memorial Day through to the Friday before Labor Day in September has mostly been positive for equities, according to Bespoke Investment Group. "The S & P 500's median performance during this period has been a gain of 3.7%, with positive returns 72% of the time," read a note from the firm. .SPX 6M mountain S & P 500, over 6 months In fact, a closer look at the numbers shows the gains are especially pronounced when the S & P 500 was already higher year to date heading into the period, with the benchmark notching a 4.3% gain on a median basis, with positive returns 74% of the time, the firm found. On the other hand, in the 15 years when the S & P 500 was lower on the year heading into the period, the index gained just 1.4% on a median basis, with gains 67% of the time. On a historical basis, at least, that suggests the summer months this year could be more challenging for stocks. On Friday, May 23, before the Memorial Day weekend, the S & P 500 closed lower on a year-to-date basis. On Tuesday, however, the broader index was last slightly higher for the year. Other Wall Street firms are already thinking gains could be capped this summer, given that investors won't be gaining any clarity around trade until the July tariff deadline. JPMorgan's Fabio Bassi, the bank's head of cross-asset strategy, said the S & P 500 could "remain rangebound, with limited short-term upside." However, others expect that means equity weakness is contained, especially if the stock market can get past some key hurdles around trade and the U.S. deficit. Canaccord Genuity's Michael Graham said he holds a neutral view on the short-term outlook for stocks, but said he sees "a pathway toward many of these risk factors dissipating later in the summer" if investors can avoid significant tariff volatility.
