The Financial Times reported that Starbucks is in the early stages of pursuing a takeover of burrito giant Chipotle without offering details around a potential deal. Starbucks' shares held flat, while Chipotle's stock popped 6% on Oct. 8.
Persistent menu development and daypart expansion should strengthen Starbucks’ value proposition and boost traffic.
Cost pressures stemming from ongoing labor inflation, persistent unionization efforts, and contracting arabica supply may threaten further gross margin gains or volumes.
