It's still a significant change, but I always like to point out that the "slump" consists a drop in profits, not an actual net loss. In today's stock-price-driven economy, it's huge news for a company that had been steadily growing for as long as McDonald's had been, but it still bugs me when I see it reported as "McDonald's loses money!"
