- π‘ Jim Cramer expresses intense frustration with those "furiously dumping" Starbucks stock, calling them "stupid sellers."
- β His anger is directed at the sellers, not the company, CEO Brian Nickel, or the coffee itself.
Market Context and Starbucks' Performance
- π The market opened significantly lower due to a disappointing GDP number showing the economy shrinking by 3% in the first quarter.
- π Despite the negative economic news, the market showed resilience, with the Dow closing up 142 points and the S&P rising.
- β Starbucks stock, while bouncing off the $76 level, still finished down $4.80, which Cramer deems "plain wrong."
Confidence in CEO Brian Nickel
- π‘ Cramer views the stock's dip as an opportunity, largely due to the leadership of CEO Brian Nickel.
- π He highlights Nickel's past success in turning around Chipotle, where he took the stock up 776% during his tenure.
- π Cramer believes shareholders are being short-sighted by selling Starbucks stock only six months into Nickel's tenure.
- π The stock had risen from $77 to $115 under Nickel before falling back below $80, a decline Cramer finds unacceptable.
