"Last year, the folks at FinanceBuzz went through 10 years of price data for a dozen fast-food chains.

They found that prices have jumped about 60% on average. McDonald's was the worst of the group – with a 100% average increase in prices. At 39%, Subway and Starbucks tied for the lowest surge.

Notably, inflation was roughly 31% over the previous decade.That means that fast-food prices surged at nearly double the rate of inflation since 2014.

These numbers also explain the results of a 2024 survey by consumer-finance company LendingTree. It found that 78% of Americans view fast food as a luxury. That's an incredible number," explains Marc Chaikin of Chaikin Analytics.

"Combined, the three ETFs SPY, QQQ, and IWM hold 261 stocks with "bullish" or better ratings. And they hold a staggering 655 "bearish" or worse stocks in the Power Gauge.

In other words, today you're more likely to pick a stock in "bearish" territory than one in "bullish" territory. Or more simply, you can't just "throw a dart" and hope to win in this market right now," states Vic Lederman, editorial director at Chaikin Analytics.

"Today, the S&P 500 is very different from how it was 20, 10, or even just five years ago. The constituent companies in the index have changed over the years. And so have the weightings.

Before 2020, the top 10 constituents of the S&P 500 accounted for between 17% and 27% of the index's total weighting. But over the past few years, their contribution to the overall index has ballooned to historical proportions. By mid-2023, the top 10 stocks in the index accounted for about 30% of the overall weighting.

Today, that weighting is up to roughly 36%. That's a HUGE concentration for the S&P 500 on the 10 largest companies. And that means ETFs tracking the S&P 500 are massively undiversified. While they still hold all 500 companies, more than a third of their funds are allocated to just 10 companies," explains Vic Lederman of Chaikin Analytics.
