This summary was created by AI, based on 10 opinions in the last 12 months.

Starbucks (SBUX) is currently experiencing a mix of optimism and caution among analysts as it navigates a challenging environment. The new CEO's strategies, such as improving customer service and reducing employee turnover, have resulted in a notable increase in same-store sales, suggesting a turnaround is underway. However, concerns persist regarding the company's ability to close underperforming stores and effectively penetrate middle America. The stock's price movement has been erratic, with analysts noting that it could be overbought at this stage. Furthermore, ongoing labor strikes and international competition present additional headwinds. Overall, while there's potential for growth, analysts remain wary of external pressures and the effectiveness of recent changes.

If you bought this a few years, you have done very well. But US growth has flatlined, which is a big challenge. Abroad, as in the UK and Canada, there is heavy coffee competition from other chains. China drinks tea, so penetration into that territory is limited. He missed buying this, but won't buy it now--it's too rich.

He had it for quite a long time and exited last summer. He won't likely get back in. They do everything well and are a well run company but he sees opportunities elsewhere.

He rarely goes to one. A great company. The CEO is now thinking of running for president. With all retail stories, how many more good locations can they find to drive earnings? The food concept at breakfast has worked well. What's their next frontier? Where else to expand to?

Phenomenal company. Stock is not cheap here. Facing competition, especially from McDonald's. Great business, but not a great entry point.

With a very long term horizon you can look at it. It is not a value stock. A company that has done a good job and keep on innovating.

He's owned this and it's on his radar. It's moving above its 200-day moving average. Trading at 25x earnings with a 14% growth rate. They're paring back on some stores which has increased margins a little. He likes it.

It tends to do well at this time of the year. The revenue on gift cards is recognized when they are redeemed so the first part of the year benefits from them. They tend to do well at the beginning of the year. It gets weaker in April and May. It has technical strength also.

It has always been too expensive for him. Maybe they have built out too many stores, but it has had a hard time continuing to justify valuations.

They were the darling of Wall Street for many years with high multiple as they continued to grow. Now they hit a rough patch. The multiple is still in the low 20’s. Probably too high for his liking. He prefers to pay a higher price for more certainty.

A long-tome owner, despite this going sideways for a few years. China hasn't yet panned out, with some missteps. It opens a store every four hours around the world. Still likes it. They're working through mobile ordering. It will break-out. He's sticking with it.

They are watching it and love the growth they see. Going into China should be a good move for them. The new offerings, including alcohol, add to the growth opportunity. He would watch for a good entry point, but holding for a long term investor is good. Yield 3%.

Expanding into China is key. Headwinds are management turnover and competition from custom coffee shops--Starbucks is no longer special or unique. Let's see what Q2 earnings are like.
