Fast Money Traders Share Strong Dollar Plays: Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc., Jack in the Box Inc. & More

On CNBC's Fast Money, Tim Seymour said that The Kroger Co. KR should benefit from a strong U.S. dollar because it has low foreign exposure, a reasonable valuation and strong growth prospects.

Pete Najarian, meanwhile, said Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. CMG should do well in a strong U.S. dollar environment. The company had double digit growth in the last six quarters, Najarian noted.

He added: The company's price-to-earnings multiple is high, but its business still has room to grow. As long as expansion can be sustained, Najarian is not concerned with valuation.

Guy Adami, next, said he'd buy Jack in the Box Inc. JACK, which also has a high valuation.

The company has great margins, Adami remarked.

Brian Kelly, lastly, wants to trade commodities that have been hit by the dollar, because currencies usually don't move as fast as the U.S. dollar moved higher, he said on the broadcast.

Kelly would buy SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Explore & Prod. (ETF) (NYSEARCA: XOP), which fell 1.41 percent on Friday.
