Starbucks (SBUX.US) shares plunged over 1.3% on Monday after Deutsche Bank downgraded the coffeehouse chain to hold from buy with a $106 price target. Bank's analysts expect that further gains will be harder to achieve after the stock’s recent solid performance. Improving U.S. sales face a potential U.S. recession dynamic has that not gone away", said Deutsche Bank analyst Brian Mullan.
The analysts also stated, “In essence, we think the ‘easy part’ of the move has probably taken place with SBUX with the stock at $105, which is the reason for the ratings change at this point in time.” We believe ourselves to be really nonpartisan at current levels; neither beneficial nor detrimental.”
