There are Starbucks across from other Starbucks. They are in Target and Barnes and Noble. They don't seem to need to advertise too much as far as I have seen. People know their ridiculously long orders off the top of their heads which means they keep...

Fantastic long-term growth opportunities. SBUX has major in-fill plans, and expansion overseas is just beginning. Telling example: SBUX France is doing very well, and if the French can accept Starbucks, anyone can...

Warren Buffet always advocates buying what you know. Well Starbucks is one company that continually amazes me in how they have been able to consistently grow their business – both overall and in terms of same-store-sales - even while operating retail...

Starbucks sells caffine which is addictive, so they almost never lose a customer. I used to go to 1 of their 5 retail establishments that were within a 3 mile circle from my home, usually about three times a day. Now their coffee is too strong for me...

I recently looked into buying a "Vice Fund" since these funds offer great dividends and own shares in well establish companies that have rewarded long term investors due to the nature of the products they sell. Instead, I decided to buy a stock that...

The cash keeps on coming and growth is solid. What's not to like? The hiccup caused by SBUX's own memo caused a correction but, at $28+, the correction is overdone. Back to $33 by September.

I believe that it would be irresponsible for me to NOT own SBUX on behalf of my children (and future generations). This is a perfect example of a long term holding.

Starbucks is on a major expansion throughout the world. The expansion into China will reward the company handsomely. Tea is one of the products the firm specializes beside cofee. Tea is the primary beverage in China. Introducing the Chinese to drin...

Exclusive rights in the Barnes and Noble cafe was a great idea as was installing them in Target to give tired soccer mom's a place for a Venti soy latte. Big expansion has made quality iffy at times as well as its high prices, but is there any other...

SBUX is the smallest luxury someone could purchase even @ $4.00 a cup. Gas prices are effecting financial cutbacks, but lets face it, people need their coffee as people need gas for transportation. SBUX may of grown to big too quickly, but lets also ...
