Some Of The Analysts Were Saying, Now

As I Said, I Haven't Spent A Lot Of Time Thinking About Partner Brands.

We Cover Hamburgers, Chicken, Veggie Burgers, Salads, We've Got A Pretty Broad Range. To Me, Mcdonald's Isn't Only About The Food. It's About The Prices, It's About The Way We Eat.

But We Had A Pretty Diversified Portfolio Of Businesses Around The World And Things Tended To Offset Each Other. But One Or Two Years Ago, We Had A Lot Of Things Happening At The Same Time.

Mcdonald's Is Almost 50 Years Old. For 47 Years We Had A Pretty Consistent Track Record Of Being Able To Deliver Admirable Sales.

But, On Balance, We Seized The Marketplace. We've Got A Great Infrastructure. And Yes It's Struggling In Some Areas Because Of Some External Factors And Some Internal Factors.
