------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shares of Starbucks Corp (SBUX.O) rose in premarket trading on Tuesday,
after Robert W. Baird upgraded the coffee chain to outperform.

trends in Starbucks's third quarter," the firm wrote.

Baird added that it generally believed that the company had
been taking appropriate steps to enhance its long-term fundamentals by slowing
growth, controlling costs and investing in traffic-driving initiatives.

"The transition to positive operating metrics is likely to be gradual, but
we think consistent signs of progress in upcoming quarters would increase
investor confidence in the longer-term outlook." it wrote.

Shares of Starbucks rose 2.5 percent to $14.05 in premarket trading.
