McDonald's warns of revenue drop


McDonald's`s--one of my favorite fast-food brand,which I know big mac meal is 3.89 with large coke,large fries and a big mac burger.
Even though the whole world economy downturn,but MC does`t be affected that much.Because they have lower price and good market share and market size all over the world.
MC is elastic,it has more competitors, KFC is a good example,so if their price is lower than KFC,they will gain more.People are likely to buy cheaper goods during the crisis when the two fast-food companys produced same food.
But from the latest figure shows that there is 1.4% sales rise in FEB 2009 but compared with an increase of 11.7% in February 2008,it may tell us something.....
Experts said as the US currency is stronger and the commodity costs will squeeze its first-quarter,so we know there is a little rise in FEB 2009 but can`t compared with 2008...
After all,MC still is one of the famous brands is the world,we can image MC will do a good work during downturn when other brands have financial problems
