(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 08/27/12 -- After an impressive start to the year coffee stocks have cooled off significantly as Europe's current economic crisis have seen demand drop across the region. But global demand may be picking up as recent data from the International Coffee Organization (ICO) showed that global coffee shipments have increased 2 percent in the April-June quarter, after declining in the two previous quarters. Five Star Equities examines the outlook for companies in the Coffee Industry and provides equity research on Caribou Coffee Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: CBOU) and Dunkin Brands Group Inc. (NASDAQ: DNKN).

Coffee prices have dropped significantly in 2012. According to the ICO from July 2011 to July 2012 the average monthly price for a pound of coffee has fallen by 24 percent. Coffee companies haven't immediately benefited from lower prices, but will in 2013.
"What they typically do is they buy coffee on a six-to-nine-month-out forward-rolling basis," says Will Slabaugh, research analyst at Stephens Research. "When you see coffee prices dropping now, what you're preparing for is a benefit into next year and then likely into 2014 as well, if prices can stay low."
