    Having watched this stock for a while but never pulling the trigger on it. I own MCD but would appreciate hearing how the two compare. I like the yield and can buy on the TSX which is a plus for me in an open account.

    • Thanks for your question. In brief:

      McDonald’s, symbol MCD on New York, is now trading near its recent all-time high. It has a P/E of about 27 and yields 2.3%%

      Restaurant Brands International, symbol QSR on New York, reached an all-time high in March 2024, but has moved down since. It has a P/E of about 20 and yields 3.8%.

      Restaurant Brands is the cheaper of the two stocks, with a higher yield—and it offers more diversification with its various brands.

      Going forward, both face slower demand in the near term due to lower consumer confidence. However, we see both as buys.
