    The glaring error is this screenshot is listing an income figure that is comparable to the 2022 total revenues in the 2022 fiscal report.

    https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/SBUX/starbucks/ebitda

    It looks like Starbucks 2023 EBITDA was $7.3 Billion and the net income was $4.1 Billion.

    The post makes a good point, but uses garbage data. Why do they do this? Although an $11,000 raise would elliminate the actual net earnings figure.

      There it is. I kept finding investor reports claiming the same 25 bil number as the net profit, but that’s just goofy if their actual bottom-line was under 5.

      And that $11,000 figure is now about 6x too big. Meaning we’re talking about a less than a dollar raise. Not to even mention ebida is STILL more than bottom-line profits.

      Why do they do this?

      Incredibly frustrating.

      Should we form an eat the rich union, obviously.

      Is sharing garbage data on social media the way to get there, no! Real data (like on wealth concentration) is offensive enough!
