Restaurant Brands International Inc. (NYSE:QSR) is one of the best stocks to buy, according to billionaire Bill Ackman. Late last year, analysts at RBC Capital reiterated Restaurant Brands International Inc. (NYSE:QSR) as a top idea among global franchised fast-food groups. Consequently, the research firm raised the stock’s price target to $82 from $77 while reiterating an Outperform rating.
