10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Starbucks's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NYSE">SBUX</a>) short percent of float has risen 6.58% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 36.79 million shares sold short, which is 3.24% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.4 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Starbucks Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1745424071_0_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Starbucks has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Starbucks's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Starbucks's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.16%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Barclays Maintains Overweight on Starbucks, Lowers Price Target to $106

Wells Fargo Maintains Overweight on Starbucks, Lowers Price Target to $100

BofA Securities analyst Sara Senatore provides an analysis for restaurant sector performance in the first <a href="https://trello.com/c/f3PFGoRF/331021-restaurants-q1-previewbofa">quarter</a>.
Restaurant demand showed mixed results due to weather and a calendar shift, said the analyst. 
Black Box industry data revealed a deceleration in same-store sales growth (SSSG) across all segments from January to February, but March saw improvement, excluding Fine Dining. 
Restaurant spending growth improved in March, with chain spending recovering from -7.5% in February to -3.5%.
Independent restaurants saw a rise in spending, from -2.7% in February to +1.3%. The rebound was attributed to better weather and the impact of the calendar shift in February. 
In the first quarter, prices for soybeans, wheat and soybean oil continued to deflate, though at a slower rate than in the fourth quarter of FY24. 
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44897010/chipotle-to-open-first-mexico-restaurant-by-2026">Chipotle To Open First Mexico Restaurant By 2026</a>
Coffee prices surged, increasing by 96.8% year-over-year, up from 56.8% in the fourth quarter. Beef inflation rose to 5.5%, compared to 1.3% in the previous quarter.
Cheese prices decreased by 1.8%, while dairy inflation slowed to 1.3%. Futures markets predict deflation in several commodities in the second quarter of 2025, but coffee, natural gas and beef are expected to see inflation, noted the analyst.
Restaurants index in the S&amp;P 500 is trading at 1.2x forward EPS, below its 5-year, 10-year and 15-year averages of 1.4x.
Industry data indicates a demand recovery in March after weak months in January and February. While consensus expectations for restaurants remain high, first-quarter results may fall short of estimates. 
Investors are focused on April trends and the potential impact of tariffs on consumer sentiment, traffic and COGS inflation.
So, keeping the above points in mind, the analyst has lowered the price targets for Bloomin&#8217; Brands Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLMN#NASDAQ">BLMN</a>), Dutch Bros Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BROS#NYSE">BROS</a>), Cheesecake Factory Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAKE#NASDAQ">CAKE</a>), Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CBRL#NASDAQ">CBRL</a>), Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>), Krispy Kreme Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DNUT#NASDAQ">DNUT</a>), Domino&#8217;s Pizza Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DPZ#NASDAQ">DPZ</a>), Brinker International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EAT#NYSE">EAT</a>), Jack In The Box Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>), McDonald&#8217;s Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>), Papa John&#8217;s International Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PZZA#NASDAQ">PZZA</a>), Restaurant Brands International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>), Starbucks Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>), Sweetgreen Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SG#NYSE">SG</a>), Shake Shack Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHAK#NYSE">SHAK</a>), Sysco Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYY#NYSE">SYY</a>), Texas Roadhouse Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXRH#NASDAQ">TXRH</a>), Wendy&#8217;s Co (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WEN#NASDAQ">WEN</a>), Wingstop Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WING#NASDAQ">WING</a>), and Yum!

Restaurant Sector Q1 Volatilty From Weather, Inflation — Analyst Lowers Price Targets

Benzinga examined the prospects for <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">many investors' favorite stocks</a> over the last week — here's a look at some of our top stories.
U.S. markets faced heightened volatility this week as the Trump administration intensified trade restrictions, notably imposing new export controls on Nvidia's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) H20 AI chip to China. Nvidia projected a $5.5 billion revenue impact, leading to an 8.5% drop in its stock and a broader 3% decline in the semiconductor sector.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell cautioned that the tariffs could exacerbate inflation, prompting criticism from President Donald Trump. Amid these tensions, gold prices surged to a record $3,330 per ounce, reflecting increased investor anxiety.
In corporate earnings, UnitedHealth Group's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>) unexpected downward revision of its full-year guidance led to a 22.4% plunge in its stock — the steepest single-day drop since 1998. Conversely, Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) reported strong performance, providing some optimism amid the market turbulence.
Benzinga provides daily reports on the stocks most popular with investors. Here are a few of this past week's most bullish and bearish posts that are worth another look.

<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn&#39;t be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Recent Report Shows That Rep. Susie Lee Sold Up to $235K Worth of Full House Resorts Stock

Starbucks Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>) is serving up a fresh cup of investor anxiety as social media boycotts boil over and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/technicals">technical signals point</a> to a prolonged bearish brew.
With shares down nearly 13% in the past month and "Boycott Starbucks" <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/international/global-trends/boycott-starbucks-is-trending-on-x-maga-activists-big-call-after-coffee-chain-stopped-work-across-us/articleshow/120249395.cms?from=mdr">trending</a> across X, the world's most iconic coffee chain is finding itself in hot water—both on Wall Street and Main Street.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Boycott Buzz Meets Brewed Resistance</h2>
What started as a symbolic storewide pause to protest the deportation of undocumented immigrants has turned into a political flashpoint. 
Make America Great Again or MAGA, activists have launched a viral boycott campaign after unionized Starbucks workers organized rallies supporting detained co-workers. 
Now, clips of the protests are making the rounds online, turning a localized labor action into a national headline. The hashtag "#BoycottStarbucks" is trending faster than cold brews in July.

If the social sentiment wasn't bitter enough, the technicals are pouring out a double shot of bearishness. Starbucks stock, at $85.43, is trading well below its eight, 20, 50 and 200-day simple moving averages. The eight-day SMA at $86.02, 20-day at $93.18, 50-day at $103.07 and the 200-day at $94.54 all flash bearish. 
The only frothy topping? Some underlying buying pressure hints that bullish sentiment could perk up &#8211; eventually.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New Flavors, Old Problems</h2>
Despite the volatility, Starbucks isn't standing still. It recently <a href="https://about.starbucks.com/stories/2025/new-ready-to-drink-starbucks-iced-energy-and-frappuccino-lite-now-available/">launched</a> Iced Energy and Frappuccino Lite drinks, updated its North American <a href="https://about.starbucks.com/stories/2025/updating-our-dress-code-for-a-more-consistent-coffeehouse-experience/">dress code</a> to emphasize the iconic green apron, and reaffirmed its global ambitions with a high-profile visit to Middle Eastern markets via its <a href="https://about.starbucks.com/stories/2025/starbucks-and-alshaya-group-deepening-our-commitment-to-the-middle-east/">Alshaya partnership</a>.

Starbucks Stock Brews A Bitter Blend Of Boycotts And Bearish Charts

Citigroup analyst Jon Tower maintains Starbucks (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>) with a Neutral and lowers the price target from $100 to $88.

Citigroup Maintains Neutral on Starbucks, Lowers Price Target to $88

Jefferies analyst Andy Barish on Wednesday upgraded the shares of Starbucks Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>) from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SBUX/analyst-ratings">Underperform to Hold </a>with a price forecast of $76, based on a 21x multiple of fiscal 2026 earnings forecasts.
Starbucks&#8217; recent stock struggles reflect uncertainty around near-term earnings, driven by consumer concerns and potential tariff-related inflation, said the analyst. 
With no formal guidance and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/03/44118489/starbucks-brews-a-new-cfo-taps-nordstrom-executive-cathy-smith-amid-organizational-changes">new CFO in place, the analyst expects a slower</a>, more modest earnings rebound over the next two years, likely aligning with below-consensus projections.
Starbucks is facing a deep-rooted cultural and workforce transformation, which the analyst said will take time to show results.

Unlike Chipotle's quicker turnaround under Brian Niccol, Starbucks lacks similar groundwork. The upcoming fiscal second-quarter may fall short of expectations due to restructuring and one-time costs, raising doubts about the pace of recovery in the second half and likely leading to reduced fiscal 2026–2027 projections.
The analyst plans to monitor progress on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43917692/starbucks-lays-off-1100-corporate-employees-in-major-restructuring">Starbucks&#8217; &#8220;Back to Starbucks&#8221; initiative</a>, which includes investments in staff and technology to improve service speed and operational consistency. 
The company is aiming to hit a four-minute service target but faces headwinds, including rising coffee costs and limited pricing flexibility. 
With recent price hikes rolling off, average check size could come under pressure in the second half, though U.S. same-store sales are expected to gradually improve, noted the analyst.
According to the analyst, Starbucks' valuation appears more reasonable now, trading at roughly 20 times projected fiscal 2027 earnings, a level that has historically marked a floor during tough periods. 
The analyst said core recovery will require more time than most investors anticipate, especially with short-term challenges like potential tariff impacts increasing the overall risk.
Despite limited short-term earnings clarity, analysts expect clearer signals in the coming quarters as leadership stabilizes. 
SBUX Price Action: Starbucks shares traded lower by 4.84% at $84.42 at publicationThursday.
