Starbucks bubble

15 ביולי 2019

Starbucks went parabolic for no particular reasons. Expansion in Asia is likely to hit the brick wall of US-China trade war. The company recently racked up an enormous amount of debt and has gone equity negative. The price is almost double future cashflow . Yet the price keeps climbing to psychological level 90 completing clear wave count in a rising wedge on 1H chart.

הערה

the stock continued subdividing almost as projected yesterday. The advance should be at its completion and the price shall reverse in the next coming days. My options lost 40% of their value so far and I am thinking about adding another pitch of them if the reversal is in place.
