I rarely see a SBUX location without a line. It reminds me a a quote I heard before, something about.... Nobody comes here any longer... It's just too crowded.
I think SBUX will become even more of a global brand, but also, more importantly,...

SBUX is large enough to make it through the current "coffee bean crisis" relatively unscathed and continue with their campaign to conquer the world. I think SBUX is past their meteoric rise phase, but they should still outperform the market (just no...

I think this will be the single most ubiquitous company on the planet in 20 years. They are funding that growth with profit, not debt. Reasonably priced competitors will be gobbled up and pose less of a threat than BK did to McD's, Pepsi to Coke, etc...

I see tons of rooms to SBUX to grow in the food space (most people only buy coffee currently), the pure expansion space (new countries) and the coffee space (increasing prices over time, if people will pay 4 bucks for a drink now, will they care abou...

People crave this coffee like oxygen. Every store is always packed, most buying the expensive concoctions. Starbucks has impressive plans for tens of thousands of stores worldwide. The sky is the limit for this addictive product.

Who would believe people would pay $4.00 or more for coffee. Who would believe that the store that does that could build 2 stores on the same intersection and still be profitable at both locations. Well, it may seem unbelievable, but Starbucks does...

Starbucks has great employees (partners) and strong management. (I've worked there for over 10 yrs). They are investing heavily in their partners and it's going to pay off over the long haul. I would buy and hold this stock for the next 3-5yrs.

This is another stock I just don't understand. I go to Starbucks periodically and I am flabbergasted that I order a $5 cup of coffee and the 20 something punk behind the counter still can't get the order correct. I can't be the only one they contin...

Wish I had waited a bit pick this one. At current prices ($25ish) this is about as safe a bet to out-perform the S&P 500 long-term that you can find.

With the recent market downturn, I believe Starbucks is posistioned for a solid run. I love Starbucks, and on the college campus where i live, its always beyond impossible to find a seat.

Also, Starbucks is considered one of the best places to work...
