McDonald's to Close 175 Restaurants
(Reuters) - Fast-food giant McDonald's Corp. said on Friday it would shutter about 175 restaurants -- its second major round of closings in two years -- and slash up to 600 worldwide corporate positions, as it struggles to turn around its U.S. performance and trim worldwide costs. The Oak Brook, Illinois-based company said the actions will reduce fourth-quarter earnings by $350 million to $425 million, forcing its to miss its 2002 earnings forecast. The shortfall stems from the combined effect of the cost of closing stores and losing their revenues, a spokeswoman said.

Don't they open a new McDonald's somewhere in the world every 22 seconds or something?

they did brag about something like that not so long ago, didn't they? Good point mudge. However, I think the number there is in hours and not seconds. That would be an epidemic if it was in seconds!

Big Business having a panic attack when they only make 300 million instead of the projected 425 million, wouldn't the point be they still made three hundred million?
