From January 2020 to January 2021, changes in restaurant menu prices in the United States varied by restaurant type. Full service restaurants (FSRs) experienced a decrease in menu prices between March 2020 and April 2020. Meanwhile, limited/quick service restaurants (QSRs) experienced an increase in menu prices during those same months. Despite the increase in menu prices from quick service restaurants, the total revenue of the QSR industry in the U.S. fell from 273 billion U.S. dollars in 2019 to 239 billion U.S. dollars in 2020 as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

What is the leading QSR chain in the U.S.?

According to a measure of systemwide sales, McDonald’s generated more sales in 2020 than any other QSR chain in the United States. The fast food behemoth earned 40.53 billion U.S. dollars in sales revenue, which amounted to roughly 22 billion U.S. dollars more than the second ranked chain, Starbucks. Compared to McDonald’s, the similarly influential coffeehouse giant took home 18.5 billion U.S. dollars in sales revenue in 2020. Other leading QSR chains in the U.S. included Chick-fil-A and Taco Bell.

Which U.S. state has the most quick service restaurants?

As the home of fast food, there is no shortage of quick service restaurants in the United States. Although such restaurants can be found in every state, some states have more than others. In 2019, the U.S. state with the largest number of quick service restaurants was California with nearly 31.5 thousand establishments. Meanwhile, state with the lowest number of quick service restaurants was Wyoming with 358.

In January 2025, prices had increased by three percent compared to January 2024 according to the 12-month percentage change in the consumer price index — the monthly inflation rate for goods and services in the United States. The data represents U.S. city averages. In economics, the inflation rate is a measure of the change in price level over time. The rate of decrease in the purchasing power of money is approximately equal. A projection of the annual U.S. inflation rate can be accessed here and the actual annual inflation rate since 1990 can be accessed here. InflationOne of the most important economic indicators is the development of the Consumer Price Index in a country. The change in this price level of goods and services is defined as the rate of inflation. The inflationary situation in the United States had been relatively severe in 2022 due to global events relating to COVID-19, supply chain restrains, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. More information on U.S. inflation may be found on our dedicated topic page. The annual inflation rate in the United States has increased from 3.2 percent in 2011 to 8.3 percent in 2022. This means that the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar has weakened in recent years. The purchasing power is the extent to which a person has available funds to make purchases. According to the data published by the International Monetary Fund, the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) was about 258.84 in 2020 and is forecasted to grow up to 325.6 by 2027, compared to the base period from 1982 to 1984. The monthly percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for urban consumers in the United States was 0.1 percent in March 2023 compared to the previous month. In 2022, countries all around the world are experienced high levels of inflation. Although Brazil already had an inflation rate of 8.3 percent in 2021, compared to the previous year, while the inflation rate in China stood at 0.85 percent.

Notes:

1.According to the regulations of the statistical system, China's CPI rotates at a base period every five years. After each base period rotation, the survey classification catalogue, representative specifications and survey outlets are adjusted, and the classification weights are also changed to reflect the latest changes in the residents' consumption structure.2.The CPI compiled and released from January 2016 to December 2020 was based on 2015. Compared with the previous base periods , the eight categories of this base period have significant changes. Among them, "Food", "Tobacco and Alcohol" are merged into "Food, Tobacco and Alcohol", "Health Care and Personal Articles" is split into "Household Articles and Services", "Health Care" and "Miscellaneous Goods and Services", "Recreation, Education, Cultural Articles" is split into "Education, Culture and Recreation" and "Miscellaneous Goods and Services", "Household Facilities, Articles and Services" is split into "Articles for Daily Use and Services" and "Miscellaneous Goods and Services". In addition, the index connotation of "Food" has changed. The "Food" in the previous base periods is a broad category, including grain, meat and poultry, fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, aquatic products, tea and beverages, and dining out; this base period "Food" is the medium category under the "Food, Tobacco and Alcohol" category, which only includes grain, livestock meat, poultry meat, fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, aquatic products, etc., and no longer includes "tea and beverages" and "dining out" .3.From January 2021, the CPI based on 2020 is compiled and released. This new base period is still divided into eight categories: "Food, Tobacco and Alcohol", "Clothing", "Residence", "Household Articles and Services"," Transportation and Communication", "Education, Culture and Recreation", "Health Care", "Miscellaneous Goods and Services", and the basic category has increased to 268.

Alaska's Division of Community and Regional Affairs (DCRA) first began surveying heating fuel and gasoline prices in Alaskan communities in 2005 to inform the administration and policymakers about actual energy costs across the state. The same 100 communities have been surveyed since the project's inception. The fuel survey is now consistently executed twice per year - in January and in July. The Alaska Fuel Price Report provides summary information about current fuel prices across Alaska, comparisons of historical fuel prices in the surveyed communities versus the national average, time lapse maps displaying longitudinal changes in regional fuel prices, and interactive maps that contain longitudinal fuel price data. Since the initial report in 2005, DCRA has conducted 28 surveys to obtain heating fuel and gasoline prices from 100 selected Alaskan communities.

Biopharma companies that are involved in the race to develop treatments for COVID-19 are seeing significant changes to their share price. Between January 20 and February 25, 2020, Novacyt and Co-Diagnostics saw their share prices surge by around 800 percent and 300 percent, respectively.

Why are some companies benefiting from COVID-19? As the search for COVID-19 treatments continues, the spotlight is being shined on biopharma companies trying to contain the spread of the disease. Media attention is helping to drive the short-term share price of companies with COVID-19 programs because opportunistic investors can see the potential in biotech and pharmaceutical stocks. Two companies that have seen their stock value rise are Gilead Sciences (makers of remdesivir) and Moderna (developers of mRNA vaccines).

Gilead’s stock soars on the back of promising research From a business standpoint, companies could be propelled even further if clinical trials reveal a drug that can successfully treat COVID-19. One of the investigational medicines to show the most potential is remdesivir, which is developed by Gilead Sciences. The drug is being repurposed, and testing is underway to evaluate its safety and efficacy in patients. Positive early data has been reported in the media, and public attention has led to huge changes in the company’s market capitalization. In the United States, the FDA issued an emergency use authorization for remdesivir for the treatment of patients with severe COVID-19 on May 1, 2020.

The Survey of Consumer Attitudes and Behavior series (also known as the Surveys of Consumers) was undertaken to measure changes in consumer attitudes and expectations, to understand why such changes occur, and to evaluate how they relate to consumer decisions to save, borrow, or make discretionary purchases. The data regularly include the Index of Consumer Sentiment, the Index of Current Economic Conditions, and the Index of Consumer Expectations. Since the 1940s, these surveys have been produced quarterly through 1977 and monthly thereafter. The surveys conducted in 2020 focused on topics such as evaluations and expectations about personal finances, employment, price changes, and the national business situation. Opinions were collected regarding respondents' appraisals of present market conditions for purchasing houses, automobiles, computers, and other durables. Also explored in this survey, were respondents' political affiliation and opinion about the Trump administration. Demographic information includes ethnic origin, sex, age, marital status, and education.

The figures of existing own homes are related to the stock of existing own homes. Besides the price indices, figures are also published about the numbers sold, the average purchase price, and the total sum of the purchase prices of the sold dwellings. The House Price Index of existing own homes is based on a complete registration of sales of dwellings by the Dutch Land Registry Office (Kadaster) and the (WOZ) value of all dwellings in the Netherlands. Indices may fluctuate, for example if a small number of dwellings are sold in a certain region. In such cases we recommended using the long-term figures. The average purchase price of existing own homes may differ from the price index of existing own homes. The change in the average purchase price, however, is not an indicator for price developments of existing own homes.

Data available from: 1st quarter 1995

Status of the figures: The figures in this table are immediately definitive. The calculation of these figures is based on the number of notary transactions that are registered every month by the Dutch Land Registry Office (Kadaster). A revision of the figures is exceptional and occurs specifically if an error significantly exceeds the acceptable statistical margins. The numbers of existing owner-occupied sold homes can be recalculated by Kadaster at a later date. These figures are usually the same as the publication on Statline, but in some periods they differ. Kadaster calculates the average purchasing prices based on the most recent data. These may have changed since the first publication. Statistics Netherlands uses figures from the first publication in accordance with the revision policy described above.

Changes as of 28 January 2025: The figures for the 4th quarter and the year 2024 have been changed and become final.

Changes as of 22 January 2025: Figures for reporting period 4th quarter and the year 2024 are added. The figures of the Price Index for Existing own homes are in the current publication unfortunately provisional. The calculations are based on incomplete data. This may lead to an adjustment of the figures. The expectation is that this adjustment will be limited.

When will new figures be published? New figures are published about 22 days after the period under review.

In December 2024, Hainan province displayed a CPI of about 98.4 points (same month previous year = 100), whereas the CPI in Tibet reached 101.2 points. Consumer price development in China The Consumer Price Index measures the average changes over time in the price level of a market basket of consumer goods and services purchased by consumers. It is closely related to the inflation rate. The consumer inflation rate is derived from the annual percentage increase of the CPI. After 2011, China experienced a slight decrease in domestic inflation. Between 2014 and 2018, the annual inflation rate ranged at around two percent or lower. In 2019, inflation increased again to 2.9 percent and remained high during 2020, but is forcast to decrease in the coming years. Monthly inflation rates peaked at 5.4 percent in January 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, but declined quickly in the following months and reached negative values in November 2020. Regional and sectoral inflation rates In recent years, inflation rates in the largest cities and developed regions often remained below those in developing regions in the inner provinces. The CPI in rural regions was on average slightly higher than in urban areas. The annual CPI of food, tobacco and liquor in China ranged among the highest during 2020 - mainly driven by rising pork and meat prices, whereas the transportation and communication’s CPI was one of the lowest. With the travel sector recovering from the coronavirus pandemic in the first half of 2021, monthly prices for transportation started to increase again.
