Bulls & Bears Of The Week: Boeing, Facebook, Fox, Netflix, Starbucks And More

• Benzinga has examined prospects for many investor favorite stocks over the past week.
• Bullish calls included some big names that American consumers love.
• And bearish calls included some embattled industry leaders.

Spring arrived this past week and brought some fresh volatility to the markets. It was also a week in which investors heard the latest views from the Federal Reserve and recession fears were stoked again, especially after the yield curve inverted for the first time in more than a decade. After all was said and done, the big U.S. indexes ended the week marginally lower.

As usual, Benzinga continues to examine the prospects for many investor favorite stocks. The following are just a few of this past week's most bullish and bearish posts that may be worth another look.
