Report saying that MacDonald's isn't doing well.
Given their popularity, there has to be some significance
to the broad market. Money is getting tighter? People
aren't able to eat out as much? Or there's that much more
competition? Even at MacDonalds eating out is expensive
if you have a number of kids or if you eat out a lot.
Just wondering about all those Food Fairs in malls.
If the food chains start tolose business, it would impact
the malls, wouldn't it? Or do they take up such a small
space that it wouldn't be significant? Would it make a
difference to REI, for instance?

Bill,
To do this one must be trading with a discount broker. Factor in the cents in and out, if you are trading a $10 unit, you should be approx 1000 units to be at the lowest brokerage cost.
