This development comes amidst a mixed financial performance for McDonald’s. Its shares have risen by 9%, but this is less than the 13% increase seen by Burger King’s parent company, Restaurant Brands.

Both are behind the broader S&P 500’s 18% growth. Meanwhile, Yum Brands (parent of KFC and Taco Bell) saw a 3% decrease in their shares, and Chipotle’s stock jumped by an impressive 60%.

The big reveal for CosMc’s is set for 2024, with more details expected to be shared at McDonald’s annual investor day this Wednesday. Both investors and fast-food enthusiasts are eagerly waiting for more information about this new endeavor.

As of now, McDonald’s hasn’t responded to FOX Business’ inquiries about CosMc’s. The fast-food industry and its followers are closely watching to see how CosMc’s will make its mark and influence the market.
