Marc, I hate restaurants as long term investments. One, out of tens of thousands, has done well over the years, and even Big Mac has faltered a bit lately. I don't know Yum. However, Wendy's is one of the few who give Mac a run for its money. Dave seems to have caught on to the "high fat, higher salt, so we die tomorrow" philosophy better than Burger King, and he seems to be able to time the trends in fast food buying habits better than most. His menu changes much quicker than other firms.

At this price, it may be o.k. and the weakening economy may signal a downsizing of meal budgets.
