Nothing has changed with this company over the past year. They're still opening new restaurants which keep losing money. This is some of the dumbest expansion I've seen. They have a load of underperforming restaurants and negative income, so what do ...

There's a lot to dislike in this stock, but I'd like to make a few points and see your response. There are 3 fundamentals for me with this stock:
1. Like you mention, cash flow. If they stopped building stores today and capex dropped to a coup...

People will tire of Starbucks burnt coffee and $5 pastries. Caribou runs a quality establishment with awesome products.

I've been wary of Starbucks meteoric rise the past two years. I just can't get excited about a company that sells coffee. It reminds me of Krispy Kreme doughnuts. You have to sell a lot of coffee and doughnuts to pay these expensive leases and ove...

The company is spending too much on growth with nothing working its way to the bottom line.

Refreshingly less pretentious than Starbucks. Its stores are attractively designed and comfortable, and it makes a pretty good cup of coffee, too. But there's just no way it can compete with Starbucks. I'm afraid Caribou is going to be a java also-ra...

The investors do not seem to relate with the Caribou Coffee Company’s mission to create an experience that makes the day better. Based on the number of units in operation, the company is the second largest company-owned gourmet coffeehouse operator i...

This is a company that just can't seem to find the right business model. The losses for the latest quarter were .20 per share versus a loss of .12 a year ago. They opened 36 new stores and grew revenue by 11%, but increased losses. Hmmmm. Worst o...

Better (smoother) product than Starbucks, served with less attitude. This chain can only grow into more areas of the country. This stock is now where Starbucks was 10 years ago (in a handful of states).
