9/7/2017 – Starbucks (SBUX) Temperature Below Normal

I know I've complained about this before, but it's been a while so let me get on my soapbox again. Starbucks (SBUX) needs to up the average temperature of their hot coffee drinks. When I order a coffee specialty drink, I do not feel as if I should have to order it "extra hot", it's coffee!!

The older woman that successfully sued McDonalds when the lid came off her hot coffee ruined the industry. In another 2-3 years it is probable that you will need to sign a waiver or check a box when ordering coffee saying that you understand the risks of a "hot" beverage.

After making a new 52 week high several weeks back, Starbucks (SBUX) stock chart has been anything but hot. Matter of fact, its share price has shaved $11 off since making that new high.

It's time to jump to the charts and see if temperatures are going to heat up or stay lukewarm.
