(Reuters) -Australian retailer Woolworths said on Wednesday that it would sell a 5% stake worth A$468 million ($302.84 million) in Endeavour Group, almost three years after spinning out the liquor store and pub operator.

The former U.S. president and Republican presidential candidate secured 36 million shares of Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), increasing his stake from 57.6% as of March. Reuters reported last week that Trump would secure a stock bonus worth $1.3 billion from TMTG, equivalent to about half the majority stake he already owns in it, thanks to the wild rally in its shares. The bonus also reflects the exuberant trading in TMTG's shares, which have been on a roller coaster ride since the company listed on Nasdaq last month through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) and was snapped up by Trump supporters and speculators.

McDonald's (MCD) first-quarter earnings report showcased a combo meal of international headwinds, including global sales growth slowing behind figures from this time last year and boycotts related to the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict. Additionally, inflation and rising menu prices are taking a toll on lower-income consumers. On the fast-food chain's earnings call, McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski stated that "consumers continue to be even more discriminating with every dollar that they spend as they face elevated prices in their day-to-day spending." Placer.ai Head of Analytical Research R.J. Hottovy sits down with Catalysts to discuss whether McDonald's item prices are beginning to price out certain consumer demographics. Placer.ai data found McDonald's to maintain higher monthly foot traffic growth over the past year than its competition. "Right now consumers are really focused on value, and not just discounts. I think that low price point is something that they're certainly focused in on," Hottovy says. "We've seen groups that really market around a low price point, generally a higher visitation trade. And so I think that's what McDonald's may be pivoting to in the future. There's a lot of discussion about future value plans in the US and abroad in the earnings call today. I think that's really going to be a key message..." For more expert insight and the latest market action, click here to watch this full episode of Catalysts.

The company's stock had struggled last year on fears that the entry of Apple and Alphabet's Google in digital payments could take away a big chunk of PayPal's mainstay business. PayPal's unbranded businesses have grown, but weakness in its branded business such as Venmo has been central to investor anxieties.
