Stronger Burger King Goes After McDonald’s

Burger King (QSR) has surpassed Wendy's to become the second-largest fast-food hamburger chain in the US, showing strong same-store sales growth for five consecutive quarters. While McDonald's (MCD) still boasts significantly higher net income and revenue, Burger King's consistent growth and Wendy's recent declines suggest a shift in market share. Burger King's improving performance could make it an increasingly competitive long-term player against industry leader McDonald's.
