Starbucks expanded rapidly from 16,000 stores in 2016 to 38,000 by 2022, but growth has since stalled, causing its shares to drop 16% over five years, underperforming the S&P 500's 75% rise. Despite a recent 7.9% increase in comparable store sales, overall revenue remained flat at $9.3 billion. Starbucks also scaled back its China growth strategy by selling a 60% stake to Boyu Capital, raising doubts about future expansion since local competitor Luckin’ Coffee leads with 35,000 stores. New CEO Brian Niccol's efforts to streamline operations and improve efficiency have not convinced investors, with the stock down 10% in the last month, reflecting skepticism about ending the prolonged stock slide.
