barrons3	Finally, Cramer said McDonalds (MCD) completes his four-legged chair. He said McDonald's is another consistent company which beat the street by 4 cents a share, improved same store sales by 3.8%, and raised its dividend to a 4% yield.	Love	November 05, 2009

barrons3	Is it too late to buy McDonald's (MCD), when it has a roughly 4% yield and is the ultimate weak dollar play?	Love	October 15, 2009
barrons3	The third quarter didn't see much dividend action among the 65 Dow stocks. Happily, however, what did occur was positive. Barron's statistics director Peter Miller could find only three boosts among the 30 industrials, by Chevron (CVX), McDonald's (MCD) and Verizon (VZ), although the latter two aren't payable until this quarter. The industrials as a whole disbursed $66.90 in the September quarter, down 14.53% from $78.27 a year earlier, for a 2.95% yield.	Love	October 10, 2009

supratrade	Low cost, consistency, and let's face it, some darn good-tasting burgers, fries and shakes have made McDonald's (MCD) the most successful restaurant chain ever. McDonald's has more than 31,000 local restaurants, serving more than 58 million people in 118 countries each day. More than 75% of McDonald's restaurants worldwide are owned and operated by independent local businesspeople, making this company the quintessential example of a worldwide franchise business success. When people want great fast food at a great price, they go to McDonald's. Because McDonald's gives consumers what they want at a price they want to pay, and because they make big profits doing so, I consider the company a precious jewel of capitalism.	Love	October 03, 2009

barrons3	Big dividends where also announced by corporate giants Lockheed Martin (LMT) and McDonald's (MCD) Thursday. Lockheed boosted its quarterly common payout 10.5%, to 63 cents a share from 57 cents, for a 3.23% yield. This is the eighth hike since 2003. Dividends have been ongoing since 1995. McDonald's declared a new quarterly of 55 cents a share, up 10% from 50 cents. Yield: 3.86%. Payouts have risen every year since the company initiated them in 1976.	Love	September 26, 2009

barrons3	Finerman noted that Ackman's Pershing Square had reported taking a 2.4 million- share stake in McDonald's (MCD), which could prove to be a thorn in the side of McDonalds' share price if investors fear he has made another poor call after his high-profile position in Target (TGT) didn't play out in his favor.
