McDonald's Is Really Sizzling

The sales at McDonald's are even hotter than its coffee. While rivals like Wendy's are stumbling, McDonald's said on September 11 that same-store-sales reached a better than expected 8.1% in August.

The world's number one fast-food company, now in the fifth year of a global comeback, credited the gain in part to its brisk breakfast business and its fast-selling chicken snack wraps.

And the recent 50-cent dividend increase makes the return on McDonald's stock all the more appealing. Worth keeping a watchful eye on this issue perhaps?
