McDonald's rebounds more than 10% from its October low and trades back near $253
McDonald's hit a low near $230 at the start of October and three weeks later trades around $253, a recovery of more than 10%. The rebound comes as its comparable sales slow: they grew 5.7% in the fourth quarter of 2025, 3.8% in the first quarter of 2026 and 1.3% in the second, with traffic falling in the United States. The company keeps about 95% of its restaurants in franchisees' hands and expects to provide about $8.5 billion in support to those operators through 2036.
