Don't Be Fooled: Luckin Coffee's Chairman Is Still in Control After "Ousting"

The ousting may seem odd, since Lu survived a different vote held just three days earlier to have him -- and only him -- removed from the board.
However, investors shouldn't be fooled by the headline. These two voting results were probably what Charles Lu wanted, and shareholders are now unfortunately left with the same management in place that caused Luckin's price crash in the first place.
