    Mcdonalds is offering it's stock holders a swap for chipotle stock at 10% discount. I like the way mcd has been rising steadily, is this a worthwhile deal?

    I would not, If they are doing a buy back, I would guess ( and just a guess) that they have something in the plans and want to own back a bigger share of their stock.

    I normally don't buy single stocks ( too much risk) but I may put some on them since they are doing that right now.

    And they are considering or starting in some locations to serve breakfest all day long. This is one of their larger money making meals, so it could mean some noticeable increase in store profits.

    Hopefully you are talking about McDonald's in the US.

    That is assuming that McDonald's Canada is a separate company whose parent company is McDonald's in the US.

    I think what Tim Horton's is planning (well, started) will catch on and they will take a huge bite out of McDonald's stranglehold on the breakfast market.
