McDonald's: I'm Not Buying The Recovery Story

  • The technicals are strong for McDonald's stock as the chart, moving averages, and indicators all showed bullish signals overall. Most recent earnings do not show a clear recovery in growth, as revenue growth turned marginally negative and EPS growth is flat at zero. The P/S ratio shows a significant disconnect with revenue growth but the P/E ratio shows fairer valuation, leading me to believe that MCD is moderately overvalued currently.

McDonald's: Margins Are The 2025 Story, Technical Upside, Upgrading To Buy

Despite a soft Q4, MCD shares rose 4.8%, indicating bullish investor sentiment. The focus is on increasing foot traffic and app-based sales. Management expects operating margins in the mid-to-high 40% range for 2025, with capex between $3-$3.2 billion for new restaurant development.

McDonald's: Not Finding Compelling McValue Here

  • McDonald's delivered poor Q4 results, with flat revenue, missing Street expectations despite stronger performance in overseas markets. Same-store sales growth in the U.S. declined due to an E. coli outbreak, offsetting the benefits of the company's $5 Meal Deal extension. The company announced a new McValue offering in the U.S. in January, officially extending the Meal Deal through summer, but in my view, this will do little to help trends.

Finally! Shake Shack Is Expanding Into These 10 Areas

  • As one of the most popular burger chains in America, not named McDonald’s, Shake Shack has its sights set on expansion in a big way. In January 2025, the company announced its plans to operate “at least” 1,500 restaurants in the long term, a whopping 356% increase in the number of restaurants it has today. Key Points Shake Shack is already a fast-food favorite, even though it only has 329 locations. You can’t visit a Shake Shack location without trying out one of its famous milkshakes. Whether you try the regular or curly fries, you’re in for a treat. 4 million Americans are set to retire this year. If you want to join them, click here now to see if you’re behind, or ahead. It only takes a minute. (Sponsor) This means there will be a massive expansion for this beloved chain with its excellent french fries, burgers, and milkshakes. At the end of 2024, Shake Shack only had 329 restaurants as part of its US footprint, so there is no question it’s setting its sights on becoming a formidable force for fast food in various markets around the country. 15. Why People Love Shake Shack Shake Shack has won over its fans time and time again. The biggest question anyone should be asking is why Shake Shack is so beloved that it plans to open over 1,500 new locations in the near future successfully. First and foremost, the chain is known for its high-quality, gourmet-style burgers that use 100% Angus beef. Coupled with outstanding milkshakes and french fries, there’s something that feels tastier and more upscale than McDonald’s. 14. Specific Things To Enjoy At Shake Shack The most important thing to try is the company’s secret sauce. First and foremost, you can’t stop at Shake Shack without trying out the brand’s “Shacksauce” secret sauce. Described as being “creamy and tangy,” this is something fans of this restaurant love more than anything else. The same can be said for its crinkle-cut fries, which saw fans revolt online the last time the restaurant tried to take them off the menu. 13. Is Shake Shack Overrated? Any questions about Shake Shack being overrated should be shut down. With all this conversation around new store openings, the question becomes whether Shake Shack is overrated. Some people may find the hype too much, so it’s easy to be let down. However, the reality is that most online reviews point out little things, such as the burgers being smaller than anticipated. Still, the overall verdict always points to the milkshakes and fries making any trip worthwhile. 12. The Best Milkshakes Going to Shake Shack and not getting a milkshake is wrong. You can point to many reasons to visit a Shake Shack, but none is more important than stopping by to grab a Brownie Batter Hot Cocoa shake, a personal favorite. Of course, you have standards like chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry, but you haven’t lived until you have tried the Thai Iced Tea Shake or the Cherry Blossom Shake. 11. Six-Point Plan The company CEO has a six-point plan to grow the brand. As part of the company’s efforts to open up new stores in 2025 and beyond, Shake Shack has introduced a six-point strategy, according to CEO Rob Lynch. This includes 1) Bolstering its leadership, 2) Optimizing restaurant operations, 3) Driving comp sales by boosting the frequency of returning guests, 4) Building and operating Shake Shack with “best-in-class returns,” 5) Accelerating its licensed business, 6) Investing in long-term strategic capabilities. 10. Sterling, Virginia Get ready Sterling, Virginia as a new location is coming soon. Anticipated opening date: February/March 2025 The newest Shake Shack location arriving in the US will occupy a 3,000-square-foot space previously occupied by a McDonald’s. Located at 21000 Southbank St., the area will open as part of the Cascades Marketplace shopping center. 9. Short Pump, Virginia Anticipated opening date: 2025 Short Pump, Virginia, should be excited for its newest location. Scheduled to arrive as part of a mixed-use development including 100 condominiums, the newest Shake Shack in the Richmond area will be ready sometime in 2025. This marks the third location in Richmond as the company looks to dominate up and down the East Coast. 8. Cincinnati, Ohio University students will soon have one more fast food option available. Anticipated opening date: Late 2025 Opening toward the end of 2025 near the University of Cincinnati at 259 Calhoun Street, the newest Shake Shake is ready to cater to university students galore. Centrally located near University Square, there is every reason to believe this location will be a bona fide hit. 7. Charlotte, North Carolina Charlotte is ready for its next Shake Shack location to arrive. Anticipated opening date: Late 2025 Charlotte, North Carolina residents better prepare as a new Shake Shack is coming to the Charlotte Premium Outlets near the Saks Off 5th Avenue entrance. This is the perfect combination of shopping and milkshakes for residents of the area. 6. Mount Kisco, New York Get ready, Mount Kisco. Your next Shake Shack is almost here. Anticipated opening date: Summer 2025 Arriving in Mount Kisco, New York, in 2025, this new Shake Shack is set to open at 176 N. Bedford Road. The space, formerly occupied by Dunkin’ Donuts, will be the company’s first in Westchester, New York. 5. Long Island, New York Long Island will soon be home to the first Shake Shack drive-through. Anticipated opening date: Late 2025 Get ready, Long Island, New York, as a new Shake Shack is coming in 2025, and this time, it’s arriving with a drive-through. Shake Shack had to receive special permits to open up this location at the corner of Blue Point and Middle Country roads. 4. Holbrook, New York Crumbl cookies and Shake Shack are the perfect combination of dining. Anticipated opening date: Late 2025 A new Shake Shack is coming along with the opening of a new shopping center on Sunrise Highway in The Shops at SunVet in Holbrook. The chain is set to be located near Crumbl Cookies, Whole Foods, Nordstrom Rack, Sephora, and other popular shopping destinations. 3. Atlanta, Georgia Sorry, Wahlburgers, a new Atlanta burger spot, is ready to take over. Anticipated opening date: 2025 Shake Shack is surprisingly replacing an outgoing Wahlburgers location at Heritage Court and Battery Ave. Along with eight other Shake Shack locations in the Atlanta area, this location will be the first restaurant among any of the company’s locations in the US to have a bar. 2. Naples, Florida This Naples location will be Florida’s 21st Shake Shack. Anticipated opening date: TBD (sometime in 2025) A new Shake Shack at 9105 Strada Place will become the 21st Florida location. While the company’s efforts have been concentrated in the tri-county and Orlando areas, this marks the chain’s first attempt to dominate the west coast of Florida. 1. Elk Grove, California Another Shake Shack is getting ready to battle In-And-Out in California. Anticipated opening date: End of 2025, early 2026 The fourth Shake Shack location is a highly anticipated option that will arrive before the end of the year at the intersection of Big Horn Blvd and Wymark Drive. While the shopping center is still under construction, the hope is that it will take less than a year for this new Elk Grove, California, location to open. The post Finally! Shake Shack Is Expanding Into These 10 Areas appeared first on 24/7 Wall St..

The Starbucks (SBUX) CEO Made $96 Million Working Remote, and Is About To Lay Off Employees

  • This post may contain links from our sponsors and affiliates, and Flywheel Publishing may receive compensation for actions taken through them. 24/7 Wall St. Key Points: Despite working just five months and over seeing weak earnings, falling same-store sales, and operational issues, Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) CEO Brian Niccol received a $96 million salary package included a private plane. Starbucks is ceding to rivals like Dunkin’ and McDonald’s (NYSE: MCD) Changing customer tastes toward energy drinks over regular coffee are hurting Starbuck’s core product. Also: most banks pay little to no interest, but one is paying 7-10x the national average, AND paying out $300 cash bonuses for new accounts today. Click here to learn more now. Watch the Video https://videos.247wallst.com/247wallst.com/2025/02/The-Starbucks-SBUX-CEO-Made-96-Million-Working-Remote-and-Is-About-To-Lay-Off-Employees.mp4 Transcript: [00:00:04] Doug McIntyre: It’s proxy season. So very soon we get to see what all the CEOs in America. Super big public company and people will cry and ash their teeth. The new thing I love is, is that they show the CEO’s comp compared to the median pay of the people who work at the company, usually like a thousand one. Now I’m going to tell you the best one. [00:00:29] Doug McIntyre: The worst pay package from the standpoint of investors and the media is already out. We don’t have to wait. Okay We don’t have to wait. It’s out. [00:00:38] Lee Jackson: No, we don’t. [00:00:39] Doug McIntyre: Brian Niccol. Brian Niccol Who’s the brand new came in September? CEO of Starbucks Made 96 million dollars Okay. He’s only been there for five months. [00:00:52] Doug McIntyre: He just got there. He announced about it two weeks ago that in March, he’s going to tell people what the layoffs are. Right. And he’s got this package. Plus he doesn’t have to go live in Seattle. He lives in New Port Beach. Right. So what they’ve done is they’ve also given him an airplane. So he gets $96 million. He gets a plane. [00:01:16] Doug McIntyre: Now it’s not his fault, but the earnings that came out. Right after he joined are, are what he faces. Revenue down, EPS down, US same store sales down seven or 8%, China sales down 12 to 14 percent on comparable store sales. So the US and China are 61 percent of their revenue. So this guy has to fix China, which with luck and coffee, which is their competition over there. [00:01:47] Doug McIntyre: There’s a Chinese company here. [00:01:48] Lee Jackson: Yeah, it’s fine. [00:01:49] Doug McIntyre: They have like, they have like three times as many stores as Starbucks. Not they’re going to continue to take a pounding in China period. It’s you have somebody who’s three X, your size, forget it. In the United States, he’s already admitted that they have a service problem. [00:02:07] Doug McIntyre: Yeah. People wait too long. Way too long. They don’t consider it a community store or whatever it is. Apparently the baristas aren’t friendly enough. They’re surly. Right. And I think this is true everywhere. If I go into a Starbucks and I wait, 40 minutes to get my frappuccino. [00:02:29] Doug McIntyre: I am not coming back. In other words, that’s a lost, that’s a lost customer. That person went to Dunkin Donuts. Yeah. Okay. They’re over there getting their coffee, which probably tastes better anyway, according to like consumer reports. Right. You think it’s better. You’re getting your Dunkin Donuts. You’re getting your, your nice coffee over there. [00:02:50] Doug McIntyre: Same guy, or you’re getting in the car and driving through the McDonald’s and you’re getting the hot, the hot cakes with those sausages and everything. Eat while you’re sitting in your car. And so his problem is in the United States is it’s a conquest problem. He’s got all these people have left now. He has to bring in conquest customers. [00:03:12] Doug McIntyre: These are basically new customers. who moved from someplace else or never drank coffee before they woke up one day and said I’ve got to go to Starbucks. [00:03:21] Lee Jackson: And the young people, Doug, they’re more into energy drinks in the morning than they are a cup of java. [00:03:29] Doug McIntyre: So I’m going to give Brian one thing in his favor. [00:03:31] Doug McIntyre: Some of this award was because he gave up on his, Chipotle. I think option. So they’re giving him a little something for that. But listen, even if he got paid a dollar for the first four or five months, once you don’t, once you get a plane and stuff, it’s like, come on, well, at least wait a year till you get your, your, your you got that. [00:03:55] Doug McIntyre: And, and here’s the other thing. Starbucks is one of these companies that had the, the back to work. Deal. Right. You know, everybody, you gotta go. You gotta go into the office. And so how do you feel if you’re told. You worked from home, but you got to go to the office. But the CEO lives in Newport Beach and he comes up on a private plane. [00:04:15] Doug McIntyre: I think from a route, more of a morale standpoint, it’s like, are you, are you out of your mind? So [00:04:22] Lee Jackson: Especially if you’re the other people in the C suite with the, you know, the CFO and all these other high ranking Starbucks people, they’re probably like, Oh, this isn’t so great. And remember 30 years ago, I remember when I, when I worked at Bear Stearns, I would stop at the Starbucks on the way into Dallas and it, there was an allure to Starbucks 30 years ago, and it was kind of a hip place to go for young baby boomer guys. [00:04:49] Lee Jackson: Not anymore. People don’t care. It [00:04:51] Doug McIntyre: is, it, it, it isn’t anymore. So Brian, we haven’t seen a single proxy beyond your pay package. And I’m gonna say to you right now, I’m prepared to say it’s the most outrageous pay package without seeing. Any of the other S&P 500 (NYSEARCA: VOO) pay packages. [00:05:07] Lee Jackson: Yeah, I agree. And you know, what’s interesting is, is I, we’ve discussed this, you know, recently that, they’ve started doing a whole sort of branding, commercial chain that they started during the holidays. [00:05:19] Lee Jackson: And they were good. You know, they kind of warmed you back up to the friendly people that are there. But it doesn’t matter. The coffee always tastes a little burned and, and people just, it’s too expensive and they’d rather go other places. And there’s a lot of regional places. Doug, like you said, like, like, up in the east, well, there’s, there’s dunk Dunkin Donuts here in Mississippi and in the south, but there’s also. And all these other local places.

Brand New McDonald's Will Be Built In Berlin

  • BERLIN, CT — Area residents will have another place to get Happy Meals, Big Macs and Big Breakfasts as local officials have approved a new McDonald's restaurant to be built in town. Last month, the Berlin Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously approved a mixed-use development off the Berlin Turnpike that will include retail and warehouse components. But the most notable component of the development is the creation of a brand-new McDonald's restaurant that will be part of the project. The well-known fast food eatery will be accessible from Deming Road, the Berlin Turnpike, and Worthington Ridge. The McDonald's address will be 466 Deming Road. The Berlin PZC hearing was opened in September and it closed Nov. 14, with a unanimous decision that evening by the land-use board paving the way for construction next year. At the hearing, Matthew Bruton, an engineer with BL Companies out of Hartford, updated the commission on updated renderings and plans following prior PZC talks on the project. BL was hired by the applicant Calco Construction and Development Inc. of Farmington, which is building the McDonald's at the site, which is owned by f 337 Berlin LLC. Also on hand was McDonald's construction manager Eric Wagner, who briefed PZC members on some of the building's architectural particulars. Town officials supported the new development. "I just want to say that this development is going to mean a lot to us. I believe this is the first McDonald's in, probably, three decades ... brand new. which I think is kind of cool," said Chris Edge, Berlin's economic development director. He thanked both the applicants and town staff for coming together to carry out the project and iron out the necessary details. The PZC's approval ended a nearly three-month-long hearing process that started Sept. 19 and was continued to Oct. 3 and, then, Oct. 17, before finally being closed and decided on Nov. 14. This would be the second McDonald's restaurant in Berlin, the other one being located at 185 New Britain Road.

Clif Bar $12M settlement: How to file a claim for compensation

  • Certain Clif Bar customers now have until next year to file a claim to receive a cash payment as part of a $12 million settlement with the protein bar company. The United States District Court for the Northern District of California extended the claim deadline for customers who purchased Clif Bars or Clif Kid ZBars between April 2014 and March 2023 to February 2025. Last week, a proposed settlement was reached with Clif Bar & Company over a lawsuit that alleged that the protein bar company misled consumers with labels on its Clif Bars and ZBars, making the products seem healthier than they were. The suit alleged that the products were unhealthy due to the added sugar content. MCDONALD'S SPENDS $100 MILLION IN TRUST-BUILDING EFFORT AFTER E COLI OUTBREAK The suit cited examples, saying the original Clif Bars' labeling or packaging bears the phrase "Nutrition for Sustained Energy" and Clif Kid ZBars' packaging bears claims such as "No High Fructose Corn Syrup" and "Nourishing Kids in Motion." However, the company denied any wrongdoing.
