Socially Responsible Investing: McDonald's Vs. Chipotle
9 years ago

No offense but sri is as old as the hills. I first heard of it back in the 80's.

Secondly I don't buy it as an investment theme- I am sure the Ted crowd loved the idea.

.Making money should never be hamstrung by altruism.

Money is money. Being a boy scout is quite another thing.I write a check to my favorite charity every year.That's it. Separate and clean.

I don't care that people want to put garbage in their mouths.it's their mouths. They want to kill themselves by the forkful,so be it.

MCD is just plain bad food and always will be but they have a huge market of eager eatesr who love fatty cheap food that makes them feel full for less money than just about anywhere else except maybe a 7Eleven.

My local MCD is always busy- the drive in window full of cheap American cars and college kids, painters, leaf blowers- you get the picture

CMG spoonfeeds their customer a story they want to believe. The food is slightly better but nothing even close to healthy eating.

Th famous Burrito is loaded with fat and salt and calories.Management there is WORSE than MCD because they give a false sense of health. Very covert and unethical if you want to go there with SRI type thinking.

But 18-35 yr old guys have an addiction to the burrito. They drag their girlfriends along who get something they think is healthy because theyre too lazy to read ingredients.

If you want to eat healthy, you have ONE choice. Eat at home and get really anal about what you feed yourself. It takes discipline and commitment. Good luck with that

Gluttony always wins out- the stomach always over-rules the brain. Yes the flesh is indeed weak.

I am long MCD and CMG and many of the fast food casual group.Cheers Carol

amazing it dropped in price because millies hated the place and the bad food. suddenly they may more bad food available all day long and the price goes up. 2016 will not see any major thrust imo.they are due for another quality of food story. and min wage pressure employee problems alert. growth slows. cheers
