Costco Wholesale (NASDAQ: COST) and McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) are venerable companies that have proven popular with consumers over many years. They have become dominant through their focus on providing value to customers.

Last year's results took divergent paths, which each stock reflected. Costco's stock price increased by 28%, besting the S&P 500's 16%. Meanwhile, McDonald's shares underperformed the overall index with a more than 8% gain.

But the market typically looks at short-term results. To figure out which is the better long-term stock investment, it is time to dig deeper into each company's prospects.
