The talk about MCD has thinned out — its last seven days carried 12% of this window's Reddit mentions

This chart in words

The chart plots daily Reddit mentions of MCD over the 30 days to 19 October 2026: 792 in total, busiest on 23 September with 161, and 3 on the last day counted. The last seven days of this window carried 93 of its 792 Reddit mentions. The line is the daily close over the same window: $248.27 on 21 September, $242.94 on 16 October. Of those days, 20 were trading sessions and the other 10 are hatched on the chart. On 8 of them no session took place, and the last close before it is carried forward rather than plotted; on 1 of them no session took place, and this window holds no earlier close to carry forward; on 1 of them we hold no close at all, which is a gap in our own record rather than a closure we can prove. Sentiment — the bullish share of the mentions that took a side, where the chart's dashed rule marks the 50% at which bullish and bearish are even — ran from 66% bullish to 88% bullish over the 30 days that carried enough mentions to measure.
