Normally when you boycott a company because of some woke nonsense some folks say "but what about the poor workers." In the case of Starbucks it is not the company, although it has sinned on many an occasion, but on this occasion it is its workers who are revolting.
Accusing the Israelis of genocide after the October 7 pogrom is shocking. Saying Israel is an Apartheid state is just wrong. How many Jews are in the Hamas soccer side, in its parliament or its supreme court? Do I have to say more?
#BoycottStarbucks and as for its shares, I cannot see the inevitable consumer boycott doing wonders for its earnings can you? A PE of 33.5 does not allow that much room for disappointment.
