☆ Analysts bail on Starbucks with 2 downgrades, slashed price targets. 'Stunning across-the-board miss,' says Blair

But Deutsche kept its $89 price target, which suggests the stock could gain just 0.6%, as of Tuesday's close. Starbucks stock hasn't logged a positive year since 2021. Bank of America's Sara Senatore maintained her buy rating and $108 price target, which implies roughly 22% potential upside — a fairly bullish aim compared with other firms. Underpinning Senatore's stance is her expectation that Starbucks' earnings growth will reaccelerate in 2025, fueled by traffic-driving initiatives, such as more menu innovation and operational improvements. JPMorgan analyst John Ivankoe kept his overweight rating but moved his price target lower to $92 from $100.

Zuckerberg said a world full of people walking around in VR headsets is "certainly not the future that I'm hoping we get to." Instead, his goal is for the AR glasses to become a smart phone replacement. "That's certainly not the future that I'm hoping we get to," Zuckerberg told neuroscientist and podcast host Andrew Huberman during an episode of Huberman's show that aired on Monday. In the conversation, Zuckerberg said he viewed Meta's new Quest 3 VR headsets as a successor to people's desktop-based workstations. Last year, one former Meta employee told the Verge's Alex Heath that Zuckerberg's ego is intertwined with the glasses.
