Hi, I'd like to ask for your opinion on $SBUX.

I've held the stock for about 3 years and have practically seen no profit on it. Only now, after a long time, have I finally gotten out of the loss and reached break-even / a slight gain. Honestly, I'm getting tired of holding it — it feels like the capital is pretty much dead there. I could find more interesting stocks to move it into, and generally I'm starting to think this sector is becoming uninteresting.

Do you own $SBUX? Have you sold it?

It's becoming a value stock and probably won't see any extreme growth. If you want higher returns, you'll have to choose different stocks.

That's right :D.

When it was 110+ some time ago, that was an obvious sell 😉

It's more about why you have it in your portfolio… Not everything has to be a growth stock—some more stable, defensive shares with a small dividend can make sense. Personally, I find undervalued REITs a better buy than SBUX, but we all play it differently 😉

I also hold REITs in my portfolio, but my strategy for $SBUX was different. I expected a modest price increase supported by the dividend, but in the end the dividend was the only real gain :D. Compared to something like $ABBV, my expectations for Starbucks simply weren't met.

I agree with you — I’d sell it too and move the money into something like $NFLX.

Yes, $NFLX is my primary target right now.
