For those who study such data, here’s the 2025 Big Mac index.

The Big Mac Index, a real and recognized metric developed by The Economist magazine in 1986, initially served as a light-hearted tool to measure purchasing power parity between countries. Today, it has evolved into a significant indicator of the global economy and currency valuation. This index compares the price of Big Macs in various countries to the price in the United States, offering insights into economic conditions.

Steve Ellison writes:

I love the Big Mac Index. But inquiring minds want to know, what about the eurozone, conspicuously missing from the article? The Big Mac Index judges the euro to be 15.2% overvalued, so this year's runup in EUR/USD appears not to be supported by burger fundamentals.
