NewEdge Wealth's Rob Sechan said Friday on CNBC's "Fast Money Halftime Report" that he recently added Starbucks to his portfolio.
Sechan told CNBC he was looking for a "more defensive cyclical name that's tied to the momentum of return to work in person in a strengthening labor market."
He removed Schlumberger NV SLB from his portfolio in order to add Starbucks, he noted.
Oppenheimer analyst Brian Bittner maintained Starbucks with an Outperform rating and raised the price target from $135 to $140 Friday.
