Starbucks US comp +8.1% best since Q2 2023. Importantly, in sign of brand revival, traffic +4.5%, level not seen consistently since early 2022 (which benefited from post Covid surge). Sales upside despite labor investment boosting US margin faster than expected #$SBUX 💪

I like Chicken
A great example of what French say they like to eat versus what they actually eat and also, racism when it comes to cheap meat.

The retailer I get the most questions about from friends and readers is Quince, and it's not close. It carries everything from cashmere sweaters to American-made sofas to Dom Perignon champagne, most of it super cheap. I finally wrote about what Quince is up to. 🎁: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
