McDonald's Stock Falls Near 52-Week Low Despite Earnings Beat
McDonald's stock traded at $265.53 on August 17, 2026, down 2.68% for that session and close to its 52-week low.
The fast-food group delivered earnings per share of $3.38 in Q2 2026, beating analyst expectations but falling short of revenue forecasts.
Revenue grew 3.7% year over year, but the modest revenue miss combined with solid earnings has not been enough to lift the share price in the short term.
