McDonald`s (MCD) September 2026 Dividend

I'm unsure what the future looks like in this sector. What I can imagine is robotics being used in the background to be more efficient in smaller spaces and save on staff. AI could certainly eventually replace humans at the counter entirely. Maybe soon there will only be 3-4 people working there. I'm a yoga teacher, but every now and then I grab some McDonald's fries, a burger, or nuggets. When traveling, the locations are always packed. The company keeps reinventing itself, adapting, and experimenting. Lastly, I also buy up their own real estate or branches whenever I can. Right now, July 25, '26, is a good opportunity. I've built up my position to 10 shares, slowly and patiently, piece by piece.

Automation is good for business. With technology, we have become more productive for society, our compensation increases and so our standards of living.

Which sector do you mean exactly? Burger or Real Estate? And why do you think that further automation and the resulting reduction in personnel costs are bad for business?
