  • Starbucks: Two Years of Missteps and an Overdue Admission [View article]
    This from one who has owned 'BUX for over 14 yrs;

    Howard Schultz is a marketing wizard. He loves his baby.

    Maybe not for a few years, but Starbucks WILL rise again.

    I intend to BUY, no hurry, and I have grandchildren who will be thrilled that this co. is part of the family portfolio. After enjoying two 2 for 1 splits, and selling some at $38 a few years ago, I'm playing with "house money"... BUY ! at anything in single digits - it WILL come around again down the road.

  • Is Starbucks a Bargain? It Almost Goes Without Saying [View article]
    I've been fortunate w/ 'bux... Had it for two 2 for1's, sold a few hundred at the top (about $38), now own a nice block for free! -
    I WILL acquire more, in these changing times, see no need for expediency. Suggest that anyone interested in this issue read Howard Schultz' autobiography. I believe that a philosophy such as his can only succeed, especially with him at the helm. It'll take time... I have grandchildren... At 8, it's a deal, but in these uncertain, unexplainable times, could yet drop more.
    - As always, DO THE RESEARCH !

  • Starbucks Will Restructure and Rise Once Again  [View article]
    I've owned SBUX since the 90's...
    Just lucky, I sold 1/2 (400 shares), just a few years ago @ $37... now what I own cost me nothing. I'll wait it out, thanks.
    It DOES seem tempting at less than $10.00

  • Starbucks Turns to Emerging Markets to Recoup U.S. Losses  [View article]
    I still like this co. for the long pull. It's been very good to me. I'll acquire more when it drops to below 15

  • Avoid Starbucks at All Costs [View article]
    I think with Schultz at the wheel, sbux will turn around. Whoever said "they don't get much business
    abroad".. check your facts - they open 3 stores a day worldwide

  • Starbucks is Struggling for Renewed Success  [View article]
    P.S. - Disclosure; I don't drink SBUX coffee. "The Coffee Fool" has a better line, and is a better dollar-value. For ROI it's SBUX..... be of good faith.

  • Starbucks is Struggling for Renewed Success  [View article]
    Once again, I'll say that my money's on Howard. - Read the bio. This guy WILL bring his baby back. To repeat; when SBUX hit 37, I took money off the table, ALL that I ever put in, and then some. That left me with hundreds more shares, because I bought it all the way up, and owned it while it split 2/1 three times. Yes, it's a long view, but, they continue to open 4-5 stores a day worldwide. As the new globalization phenom. grows, so will Starbucks. - Don't look for a qick return, buy it for your IRA. or your kids college fund. I believe in it wholeheartedly.

  • International Strategy Makes Starbucks as Attractive as Ever [View article]
    -SBUX shareholder - 20 yrs. I've taken off the table twice what I invested and still hold hundreds of shares. Take the long view, buy all you can, it WILL recover, and split again (for the 4th time)
