Starbucks Stock in Freefall After CEO Disses Trump and Promises to Hire Refugees

**Banacek** · 01-31-2017, 07:20 PM

Democrats and liberal media outlets shed major crocodile tears this past weekend after 109 of 325,000 foreign passengers were detained at US airports over the weekend.

This was very odd because Obama banned Iraqi refugees for six months in 2011 and Democrats said nothing.

On Monday Starbucks Corp CEO Howard Schultz announced that the company would hire 10,000 refugees over the next five years to ease the company’s conscience.

This announcement violates EEOC rules.

And several conservatives have vowed to boycott the liberal coffee company.

Now the Starbucks stock is in freefall since the announcement

and the ceo of starbucks will be leaving this year after earning more than half a billion $$$ during his time at the helm.

It’s no secret that Starbucks Corp.’s Howard Schultz will step down from the top job a wealthy man. What’s surprising is how wealthy.

Schultz, 63, has received compensation worth about $172 million since he began his second stint as the coffee retailer’s chief executive officer in January 2008, according to the company’s regulatory filings.
A closer look, however, reveals an even bigger haul. Schultz, who’s set to step down as CEO in April, received most of his compensation in equity, which varies with Starbucks’ share performance. Since he led the company to a sixfold stock improvement, Schultz’s total payday for the last nine years: $553.3 million.

I would love for this to actually materialize but 1.22% does not a free fall make.

I agree, happily since I own some SBUX from well before this outgoing CEO made these ridiculous comments.

Was trading at 58.93 this past Thursday. Right now it's 53.78. That's 5.15 points in a week. That's pretty bad.

Is it because of his announcement. Or the fact on the 26th, quarterly earnings came out and they were down with a noticeable drop in customers?

I read about this today and the main point was that each violation of hiring an illegal and not following our laws can bring 20 years per person hired, you can't discriminate by hiring illegals and only one group of people. I would love to see them go under; Maybe then a cup of coffee would return to that 35 cents a cup I miss so much.

There's a weed store (i.e. medicinal marijuana clinic) in Detroit called Starbuds. Their logo looks like Starbucks, only there is a pot leaf worked into it and no Indian woman. Maybe Starbucks should sue them for some money to offset their losses?
