Just when investors were getting a nice buzz from soaring stock price of Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ: SBUX) and Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE: BROS), both stocks were whacked by rising coffee prices. Starbucks is down over 4% in the last 30 days and Dutch Bros is down over 12%.
The threat of tariffs and a possible recession isn’t helping matters and makes investors wonder if these stocks are approaching fair value or if they’re falling knives. Both companies offer solid baseline fundamentals, but at a time when investors are thirsting for growth, should investors consider sipping on either of these two retail stocks?
