Better Buy: McDonald's vs. Starbucks

Last June, I told investors to buy shares of Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) instead of McDonald's (NYSE: MCD). At the time, I noted Starbucks faced fewer competitors than McDonald's, had more growth opportunities in China, and locked in more customers with a stronger digital ecosystem.

The market seemed to agree with me. Starbucks' stock has risen roughly 50% since, while McDonald's stock has advanced only 25%. But will Starbucks continue to outperform McDonald's for the rest of the year?

Starbucks ended its most recent quarter, which ended on Dec. 27, with 32,938 stores worldwide. Its two largest markets are the U.S., with 15,340 stores, and China, with 4,863 stores.
