Starbucks (SBUX) Stock Analysis: AI Score & Alternative Data
SBUX alt-data: revenue climbing, business outlook lagging
Is Starbucks a buy right now? The alternative data says hold. This SBUX stock analysis is built on the 25+ alternative data signals AltIndex tracks on Starbucks every day — hiring, web traffic, sentiment, social reach — rolled into an AI Score of 53/100: a Hold. The stock trades at $107.52 with a $121B market cap.
The bullish side of the 90-day ledger: revenue up 8.8% YoY to $9.5B, and web traffic up 6.2% to 17.8M monthly visits. The drag: just 42% of employees report a positive business outlook, app downloads down 87.9% to 396K downloads, and Reddit mentions down 83.3% to 1 a day. That tension is what keeps the score mid-range.
SBUX’s broader alt-data profile also covers job postings (1,000 open roles), headcount (192K employees, according to LinkedIn), Facebook followers (34.2M), and sentiment (59/100). Every signal links to its own page with full history, the SBUX technical analysis covers RSI, moving averages, and support and resistance, and the full table of everything AltIndex tracks on SBUX is just below.
