As an avid investor and follower of the market news, I have recently read and heard a lot of talk about Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks. Announced this Monday that he will be stepping down from his 25+ years with Starbucks. The twist is, there is talk of him becoming president. If you asked me before last year if a businessman that had never had a political career could become a president out of nowhere I said: "Of course not!" That just seemed absurd at the time, but after November the reality set in, anybody can be president. Howard Schultz a known supporter of the democratic party and big campaign contributor to the Hilary campaign might be running in 2020, this comes as a shock. We will see as this develops and how it will affect Starbucks as a company will they be able to maintain the growth without their now ex-CEO?
