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.

consistant performer

great company

hasn't let me down yet

seems to be growing

Is it too late to buy McDonald's (MCD), when it has a roughly 4% yield and is the ultimate weak dollar play?

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.

steady, no worry

Proven Earner

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.

Keeps disappointing

I think there will be less sells as we become more selective with our foods

Loosing Ground

Great company but stock is sucking!

slowwww mover

Worst food ever and coffee is not that great and not worth waiting in line for.

Food?

No profit as yet

A little boring. In my mind, not much upside. Does not have very far to get back to 52 week high.

best fast food
