MCD

[hendi_alex]

As posted on another thread. I'm not keen on the long term prospects for either MCD or KO, but will still add both to my big cap dividend portfolio. They continue to be winners until proven otherwise. Heck, MCDs has enough money to buy any startup competitor that has a great idea and great product. Lots of things that they can do to protect their turf. Like you have said, none of us know the ultimate direction that a company or the market goes. Vague pessimism about a business model or product line of a long term successful company is not a compelling reason to avoid the shares.
