McDonald's Q2 Preview: Can Profit Outpace Sluggish Sales?
McDonald's (NYSE:MCD) reports second-quarter fiscal 2025 earnings before the open on August 6. Analysts project EPS of $3.14 on revenue of roughly $6.68 billion, reflecting revenue growth of only 3% YoY. The stock is up about 4% year-to-date and trades moderately below its 52-week high of $326. Investor focus will fall on same-store sales trends and price/mix strategies. In Q1, global comparable sales declined 1%, with International developmental Licensed Markets growing 3.5%. The performance of McValue deals like the $5 meal and beverage promotions will be scrutinized for lift in traffic versus margin erosion. Margin resilience will be equally critical. McDonald's has emphasized operating efficiency, particularly in labor and supply chain, as a means of counteracting input-cost pressures. Analysts will watch whether cost discipline translates into margin expansion without compromising guest experience or traffic. International performance, especially China and Europe, also matters. McDonald's has seen mixed demand across regions. Last quarter, it was negatively impacted by the UK and positively driven by the Middle East and Japan. Investors may also watch markets like France or Hong Kong, where comp trends remain uneven. With valuation hinging on earnings stability, Q2 results and the conference call must deliver evidence that McDonald's can keep profit growth ahead of revenue stagnation.

Russian oil's biggest importers include China and India. Here's why Trump wants them to stop buying it
U.S. President Donald Trump is pushing China and India to stop buying oil from Russia and helping fund the Kremlin's war against Ukraine . Trump is raising the issue as he seeks to press Russian President Vladimir Putin to agree to a ceasefire. But cheap Russian oil benefits refiners in those countries as well as meeting their needs for energy, and they're not showing any inclination to halt the practice. Three countries are big buyers of Russian oil China, India and Turkey are the biggest recipients of oil that used to go to the European Union. The EU's decision to boycott most Russian seaborne oil from January 2023 led to a massive shift in crude flows from Europe to Asia. Since then, China has been the No. 1 overall purchaser of Russian energy since the EU boycott, with some $219.5 billion worth of Russian oil, gas and coal, followed by India with $133.4 billion and Turkey with $90.3 billion. Before the invasion, India imported relatively little Russian oil. Hungary imports some Russian oil through a pipeline. Hungary is an EU member, but President Viktor Orban has been critical of sanctions against Russia. The lure of cheaper oil One big reason: It's cheap. Since Russian oil trades at a lower price than international benchmark Brent, refineries can fatten their profit margins when they turn crude into usable products such as diesel fuel. Russia's oil earnings are substantial despite sanctions The Kyiv School of Economics says Russia took in $12.6 billion from oil sales in June. Russia continues to earn substantial sums even as the Group of Seven leading industrialized nations has tried to limit Russia's take by imposing an oil price cap. The cap is to be enforced by requiring shipping and insurance companies to refuse to handle oil shipments above the cap. Russia has, to a great extent, been able to evade the cap by shipping oil on a 'shadow fleet' of old vessels using insurers and trading companies located in countries that are not enforcing sanctions. Russian oil exporters are predicted to take in $153 billion this year, according to the Kyiv institute. Fossil fuels are the single largest source of budget revenue. The imports support Russia's ruble currency and help Russia to buy goods from other countries, including weapons and parts for them.

Contra China's ‘Time Bomb' U.S. Spying Concerns, Trade Is Peaceful
It was inevitable that American companies would eventually reap the bitter fruits of protectionist activity within the U.S. See the Cyberspace Administration of China's request to Nvidia for 'an explanation regarding security risks of vulnerabilities and back doors.' American protectionism, meet your blowback. For background, the Ministry of State Security in China recently expressed worry about 'Backdoors' and 'time bomb' spying threats within computer chips. Supposedly the H20 chips created by Nvidia specifically 'could have been intentionally embedded – in the design and manufacturing stage,' thus 'allowing the manufacturers to control devices remotely with particular signals, including automatically turning on camera and microphone, or ordering automatic collection of specific data in the background and sending it back.' The charges rate obvious questions. Why would Nvidia want to engage in spycraft meant to weaken an alleged enemy nation like China? Exactly because China represents a huge market for Nvidia now, and a much bigger market in the future, why on earth would it go to such great and expensive lengths to build market share in China, only for it to endanger all it's worked for with 'backdoors' and 'time bombs' meant to harm the very country it's so intent on prospering within. The incentives just aren't there. In addition to risking the franchise with spying activities, why would Nvidia want to bring harm to China in the first place? See the previous paragraph. As evidenced by China's growth potential, Nvidia is heavily invested in the country's present and future prosperity. Which is the point, though it's one that protectionist entities with the U.S. political and administrative classes would be most wise to come to terms with. That's because every time a Chinese company has the temerity to succeed stateside, protectionist impulses within the political and administrative classes get to work on discrediting the company with charges of – yes – espionage. Consider a June editorial in the Wall Street Journal about increasingly popular (stateside) Chinese company, Temu. The editorial said, 'As long as Chinese companies are putting backdoors and malware on American devices, state AGs can help protect consumers.' The implied point of the editorial was that trading with the American people by Chinese companies was and is a way to spy on the U.S. If the accusations sound similar to those lodged by China's Cyberspace Administration and Ministry of State Security, that's plainly the point. Both sides are essentially doing the same thing. The attacks on U.S.-based Nvidia and China-based Temu (along with other corporations hatched in China like TikTok and Huawei) aren't about spying and national security, they're about protectionism. Considering Nvidia, Chinese businesses are big fans of its chips in much the same way that U.S. consumers are big fans of some of China's top companies, not to mention their desire to purchase the plenty of many more. Think BYD. The main thing is that when the U.S. political class attempts to discredit Chinese companies based on flinty national security concerns, they ensure blowback of the kind we've seen last week, and that some within the Chinese state love. Translated, they don't want Chinese companies to become 'addicted' to Nvidia chips in the same way that protectionist U.S. interests don't want Americans to become 'addicted' to Temu, TikTok and others. The best, most peaceful solution to all this is for U.S. political types to walk away. As we see once again from last week, protectionism begets protectionism. Not only is the latter anti-growth, it's also anti national security when it's remembered that the best way to keep countries from warring with each other is to allow the people within them to trade with one another.
