Prediction: Chipotle Stock Will Outperform Starbucks Over the Next 5 Years
Brian Niccol, the CEO of Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG), leaving to take the same position at (NASDAQ: SBUX) created waves in the market, with Starbucks stock soaring and Chipotle stock sinking. The immediate reaction was understandable. Starbucks had been in a rut and in need of a jolt, and Niccol had a very successful run at Chipotle.
However, now that the dust has settled, I predict Chipotle's stock will outperform Starbucks' over the next five years in the restaurant space. Let's look at why I believe this will be the case.
Niccol will have two big problems to try to solve when he takes over at Starbucks: Lagging U.S. sales and a weak Chinese market.
