Abstract
We evaluate Starbucks prediction models with Modular Neural Network (Emotional Trigger/Responses Analysis) and Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test1,2,3,4 and conclude that the SBUX stock is predictable in the short/long term. According to price forecasts for (n+16 weeks) period: The dominant strategy among neural network is to Hold SBUX stock.
Keywords: SBUX, Starbucks, stock forecast, machine learning based prediction, risk rating, buy-sell behaviour, stock analysis, target price analysis, options and futures.

SBUX Target Price Prediction Modeling Methodology
We consider Starbucks Stock Decision Process with Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test where A is the set of discrete actions of SBUX stock holders, F is the set of discrete states, P : S × F × S → R is the transition probability distribution, R : S × F → R is the reaction function, and γ ∈ [0, 1] is a move factor for expectation.1,2,3,4
F(Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test)5,6,7= X R(Modular Neural Network (Emotional Trigger/Responses Analysis)) X S(n):→ (n+16 weeks)
n:Time series to forecast
p:Price signals of SBUX stock
j:Nash equilibria
k:Dominated move
a:Best response for target price

Conclusions
Starbucks assigned short-term Ba2 & long-term Ba2 forecasted stock rating. We evaluate the prediction models Modular Neural Network (Emotional Trigger/Responses Analysis) with Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test1,2,3,4 and conclude that the SBUX stock is predictable in the short/long term. According to price forecasts for (n+16 weeks) period: The dominant strategy among neural network is to Hold SBUX stock.
