great insights BC ๐
couldn't agree more...
not sure if it happens to you, but every time that I see someone buying a Coke, it makes me smile ๐
also, it happens with other products from Coke, they have a great list under their catalogue, making it a strong company to invest ๐๐๐
@Barcode๏ผ$Coca-Cola(KO)$ $Pepsi(PEP)$ $Vanguard Consumer Staples ETF(VDC)$ $Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLP)$ ๐ฅค๐ก๏ธ๐ $KO: Dividend Royalty, PEG Discount, and Breakout Potential Before 13 June ๐ก๏ธ๐๐ฅค When the market plays short-term roulette, Iโm hunting for consistency, compounding, and quiet dominance. Coca-Cola ($KO) delivers all three. With its ex-dividend date looming on 13 June 25, Iโm adding more to my portfolio, albeit split between brokers, and hereโs why I believe KO belongs in every serious portfolio right now!! ๐งพ A Business Built for Any Environment Coca-Colaโs moat is legendary! Itโs not just soda, itโs a global consumer staple empire with household brands like Powerade, Minute Maid, Dasani, and Schweppes. The company has operated with a laser focus on marketing, licensing, and global scale rather than manufacturing risk. Even with inflation and tariffs, Coca-Cola is relatively insulated due to its bottling model. Most production happens locally, so tariff friction is low and margins are defended. ๐ง PEG Ratio Screams Undervalued Looking for growth at a reasonable price? KO trades at a PEG of just 1.5x, using LTM P/E to 1Y forward EPS growth. For a company with this level of stability and margin power, thatโs rare air. Chart watchers, take note: 1. KO is in an inverse head and shoulders consolidation near ATHs 2. The right shoulder is forming with tight price action, indicating strong buyer conviction 3. A breakout above the descending neckline and horizontal $72 could trigger a sharp leg higher ๐ธ Dividend Royalty, Reinvestment Magic This isnโt just another 2.8% yield. KO has raised its dividend for 63 straight years, and pays from earnings, not debt. Februaryโs 5.2% hike is proof of strength, not just tradition. And the secret weapon? Reinvestment. A $10,000 investment in Coca-Cola in 1962, with dividends reinvested, would be worth over $2.1M by 2012. Without reinvestment? Less than half. This is how generational wealth is built, slowly, consistently, and passively. ๐ KO vs PEP: The Great Divergence In 2025, KO has surged +19.05%, while PepsiCo ($PEP) has dropped -25.45%. Thatโs a 44.5% spread in performance between two supposed peers. ๐ KO: $71.78 Support: $71.73 Resistance: $71.79 Analyst Target: $77.91 (mean), $86.00 (high) Market Cap: $263.76B FA Score: 3 Green, 2 Red TA Score: 5 Bullish, 4 Bearish Even factoring in a market-wide stall, KO is quietly consolidating near highs while PEP is in a clear downtrend. Fundamentals, technicals, and sentiment are aligned. ๐ KO in My Passive Income Strategy For monthly dividend income, KO is a September payer in the dividend rotation. But Iโm buying now ahead of the June 13 ex-dividend. Let the passive income stack while others hesitate. ๐๏ธ Stability Is a Superpower Consumer staples like KO have nearly matched the S&P 500 since 2007. Thatโs not a fluke, itโs a reminder that boring can beat brilliant, especially in uncertain macro climates. ๐ง Bonus Add: $COKE Coca-Cola Consolidated With the stock down 90% yesterday (10-for-1 split glitch), I can't resist adding 26 shares and have just opened positions in Overnight trading. Yes, the 9% yield and 2x PE are not real, but the support zone below split-adjusted $112 is real. Many traders likely bought pre-split expecting a pop, and panic-sold when it didnโt materialise. Domestic bottlers like $COKE remain a smart second-tier exposure to the KO brand machine. ๐ Final Word: Boring, Beautiful, and Breaking Out Coca-Cola is where cash hides when chaos reigns. With solid fundamentals, a PEG under 2x, a breakout setup, and a legacy of shareholder rewards, KO is one of the few names that gives you compounding, capital preservation, and peace of mind. Iโm not chasing hype. Iโm buying legacy! Buffet legacy ๐ฅ ๐ฅคIf Warrenโs sipping from the same bottle, who else is ready to join me at the dividend fountain before June 13? โฒ๏ธ๐ฐ ๐ข Donโt miss out!
