Read MoreHide Full Article
Starbucks (SBUX - Free Report) closed the most recent trading day at $87.01, moving -1.65% from the previous trading session. This move lagged the S&P 500's daily loss of 1.4%. Meanwhile, the Dow lost 1.34%, and the Nasdaq, a tech-heavy index, lost 1.57%.
Prior to today's trading, shares of the coffee chain had gained 2.55% over the past month. This has outpaced the Retail-Wholesale sector's gain of 0.67% and the S&P 500's loss of 0.46% in that time.
SBUX will be looking to display strength as it nears its next earnings release. The company is expected to report EPS of $0.32, down 54.29% from the prior-year quarter. Our most recent consensus estimate is calling for quarterly revenue of $6.05 billion, down 10.31% from the year-ago period.
Investors should also note any recent changes to analyst estimates for SBUX. These revisions help to show the ever-changing nature of near-term business trends. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the company's business outlook.
Research indicates that these estimate revisions are directly correlated with near-term share price momentum. We developed the Zacks Rank to capitalize on this phenomenon. Our system takes these estimate changes into account and delivers a clear, actionable rating model.
The Zacks Rank system ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell). It has a remarkable, outside-audited track record of success, with #1 stocks delivering an average annual return of +25% since 1988.

The Retail - Restaurants industry is part of the Retail-Wholesale sector. This group has a Zacks Industry Rank of 44, putting it in the top 18% of all 250+ industries.
