McDonald's (MCD): Even "squeezed" consumers are Lovin It
A 21% selloff says the low-income squeeze is winning. Our demand data, and the consumer's own wallet, say the story is turning.

Wall Street is selling McDonald's stock on fears the squeezed consumer is still cracking.
LikeFolio data, and macro data from major firms like PNC suggest otherwise.
The budget consumer is heading back to the counter instead, and the McDonald’s is stacking catalysts: six new crafted drinks, the Fried Apple Pie back after 34 years, and a World Cup meal running all summer.
We break down what our consumer demand data shows and why we think the selloff has it backward.
