Retail Is Charged Up About Luckin Coffee ($LKNCY)

China-based coffee chain Luckin Coffee is back on retail’s radar after opening its first U.S. stores in New York City. The fundamental news helped spark a breakout to multi-year highs in the stock, and Stocktwits Sentiment implies retail is betting on even higher prices ahead.

Stocktwits Sentiment and Message Volume have been rising steadily since mid-May, before prices began to move higher. Now, sentiment is at its highest level of the year, sitting firmly in ‘Extremely Bullish’ territory as the stock picks up steam.

This social signal appears to confirm the stock’s breakout to nearly five-year highs. Shares are now firmly above their 2024 weekly closing highs, near $35.80, and appear to be targeting the $50 all-time highs achieved just before the pandemic. These factors will likely keep the stock at the top of the Stocktwits trending list this week.
