Is Luckin Coffee a Silent Portfolio Killer?
At first glance, Luckin Coffee (NASDAQ: LK) might look like a great investment. It operates in the massive Chinese market, its sales are (allegedly) growing at a breakneck pace, and it trades at a mouthwatering price of less than $4 a share. But beyond the compelling optics, Luckin Coffee is a silent portfolio killer.
The controversial Chinese coffeehouse is embroiled in a fraud scandal that continues to worsen as more information comes to light, and its rapid expansion looks unsustainable. Investors should give Luckin Coffee a wide berth, because it's only a matter of time before the stock price collapses further.
