The following video is from Tuesday’s MarketFoolery podcast, in which host Chris Hill, along with analysts Jason Moser and Bill Barker, discuss the top business and investing stories of the day.

Several months ago, the Benckiser Group acquired Caribou Coffee for $340 million. On Monday, Caribou Coffee said that it’s closing 15% of locations in the United States and converting another 20% into Peet’s Coffee & Tea stores, which is also owned by Benckiser Group. In this installment of MarketFoolery, our analysts discuss these companies, as well as the continuing raging coffee wars among Starbucks , Dunkin’ Brands‘ Dunkin’ Donuts, and Panera Bread .

Investors can be forgiven for thinking that a company that has returned almost 2,500% since going public probably has its best days behind it. But in the case of Panera Bread, there’s reason to believe that the best is still yet to come. The stock has been on an absolute tear over the past five years, and you’re invited to find out why — and what else there is to look forward to — in The Motley Fool’s brand-new premium report on Panera. Included are key areas that investors must watch, as well as opportunities and threats facing the company both today and in the long term.
