Coca-cola

COCA-COLA | FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS ⭐️Coca-Cola shareholders are getting one of the highest dividends in Wall Street history. The corporation has been paying dividends for more than a century, and in 2021 it raised its annual payout for the 59th consecutive year. But AT&T just recently showed the market a severe hint that even companies with a long tradition of dividend increases can't guarantee that those regular raises will last forever. So now is a good time for investors to take a closer look at Coca-Cola and estimate its ability to remain an outstanding company with a high dividend. Coke's 2% dividend increase in February brought its annual payout to $1.68 per share. Those who buy the stock at the current price will get a yield of about 3.1%, more than double the current S&P 500 average yield of about 1.4%. What's more, Coca-Cola, with more than 50 consecutive years of growth under its belt, is the Dividend King, a pretty rare title. Such a track record can lend additional confidence to income-oriented investors, as maintaining such momentum requires long-term balance sheet stability. Because of that, some rank Coca-Cola among the safest dividend stocks in the world. Of course, dividend stocks cannot explicitly guarantee future payouts. Nevertheless, since a rejection of such a massive series would likely cause a detrimental loss of confidence in Coca-Cola stock, investors can feel a high degree of confidence that management will make continued payout growth a priority. This beverage company's portfolio extends far beyond its flagship Coke brand and even soda. The company now owns about 200 brands, including such familiar names as Minute Maid orange juice, Honest Tea, Costa Coffee, and Topo Chico mineral water. In 2020, the company introduced Topo Chico, low-alcohol carbonated water (hard-seltzer) in the Mexican and Brazilian markets, and earlier this year brought it to the United States. It's the company's first entry into the spirits market after a brief stint in the wine business 40 years ago. Despite this broad range, however, investors have to look deeper to find the company's competitive advantages. Products such as water, tea, coffee, or juice can hardly be called unique. Nevertheless, Coca-Cola stands out largely because of the brand recognition it has built over many decades. High spending on marketing around the world helps ensure this recognition. In addition, the fact that the company charges competitive prices for its products contributes to both recognition and loyalty. Such advantages help the company generate the profits and free cash flow needed to pay dividends for decades to come. In 2020, Coca-Cola generated just under $8.7 billion in free cash flow when its payout was just over $7 billion. However, the fact that 81% of the company's free cash flow now goes to dividends is cause for concern. Notably, that percentage has remained unchanged from 2019 levels. When cash flow declined because of the pandemic, Coca-Cola management cut spending on fixed assets by 43%. This kept the share of cash flow going to dividends the same. In addition, current revenue and earnings trends do not bode well. Earnings are down 11% in 2020, and non-GAAP net income is down 6% as the company has cut operating expenses. The pandemic-related foodservice closures were largely responsible for last year's decline in sales. However, Coca-Cola's revenue growth rate has long been in the single-digit percentage range, and the company is projecting only single-digit revenue growth in 2021, despite the projected economic recovery this year. In addition, new investors will have to pay dearly for relatively sluggish growth. Over the past 10 years, Coca-Cola's stock price has risen only 62%, compared to a rise of more than 216% for the S&P 500. Yet despite this weak performance, the stock trades at 33 times earnings, exceeding the long-term historical averages for the S&P 500. Although Coca-Cola generates above-average returns, potential new investors have good reason to hesitate. Dividend costs already leave Coca-Cola with little to invest in the business. Thus, investors should anticipate only humble payout increases. Furthermore, if the company fails to increase revenues significantly over the next few years, its dividend hike streak could be in jeopardy. With all this in mind, investors should look for higher-yielding stocks that can afford to cover their payouts.

COCA-COLA 1D BEAR FLAGBear Flags are a Range and they are repeatable trading chart patterns. Bear Flags are ascending chart patterns that will have a directional bias depending on the previous incoming trend. Each chart pattern will have defining trendlines of the support/resistance levels creating the pattern. What ever time frame you are trading this chart pattern, wait for a candle close outside of the trendline in the direction of the breakout candle. (Our time frame preference is the Daily chart). Add volume indicator - Volume is the amount of $ that went into a particular candle or in Forex the # of trades that took place. Add ATR indicator - Volatility is the amount of price movement that occurred. Use the ATR to measure the price movement. When you see descending Volume bars and descending ATR line (which indicates volatility) this shows a dis-interest in traders to invest in this pair creating consolidation which creates the chart pattern. Trade Management after there is a breakout candle close. 1 - Position size (compare volume bar to volume ma line). a - Breakout candle must be 100% of volume average for a full position size. b - If 75% of volume average then ½ position size. (To find 75% of Volume look at the charts volume settings – divide smaller # into larger # = 75%+) If not 75% then stand aside from the trade. 2 – If candle breaks out of a trendline, 15m before the close of the day prepare your buy/sell order. Enter two trades. 1st trade will have a SL & TP. It will close automatically when the 1st TP is hit. 2nd trade only has a SL and will be allowed to run. When 1st TP is hit move the SL to breakeven. Look at ATR and prepare SL at 1.5 of ATR. Prepare 1st trade TP at 1 of ATR. 3 - SL for both trades will be 1.5 x ATR. 4 - 1st trade TP will be 1 x ATR. 5 - No TP on 2nd trade – letting profit run and adjusting SL to follow price. 6 - When 1st TP hit – move 2nd trade SL to breakeven. 7 - Adjust the 2nd trade SL to follow price. *8 – After Breakout candle – if price closes back into chart pattern close trade don't wait for SL to be hit. *9 - When breakout candle is more than 1 ATR from breakout candle open. a - Enter 1st trade at candle close with ½ position size. b - Enter 2nd trade with a pending limit order that is 1 ATR of breakout candle open. c – Price should pullback to that pending limit order for 2nd trade. d – If Price returns back into chart pattern close trade before SL is hit.

Fresh Local High for KO. What's next?Fresh Local High for KO. What's next? -Today, we will speak about KO. Since the bottom of March 2020, the price has been moving on a bullish trend. It's not the most beautiful bullish trend you have ever seen, of course. BUT the sequence of Higher Highs and Higher Lows provides us with a clear idea of the major trend. -Using Trendlines (White lines), we can define the higher and lower boundaries of the bullish trend we observe. These lines are beneficial to establish which are the limits of the ascending situation. In general terms: IF the price is above the Bullish Major Trend, we should keep thinking in long situations. -Yesterday (10/05/2021), the price made a new local high above the previous one at 54.96. We can see that at the current level, we have a significant resistance zone since September 2019 -So, what can we expect here?. The ideal scenario would be to wait for a correction that fits the size of the circle and presents similar proportions in time as the one that we observed before on DEC 19 - JAN 2020 -If that scenario happens, the breakout of that structure would be a great confirmation to look for Bullish setups or situations towards the next resistance zone at 59 - 60. Please consider these two things -1)Waiting for Corrective patterns before trading provides you with a better trigger in terms of safety than trading with a market order. However, the disadvantage is that if the correction you are waiting for does not happen, you miss the movement. -2) The corrective patterns may happen at the edge or above a support resistance zone; it's important to keep in mind that you are looking for a retracement and adapting that idea to the infinite variations the market makes. Thanks for reading!

Coca Cola Can Disappoint in Next Couple of MonthsBecause a company is a household name doesn’t make it immune to market declines. Coca-Cola stock fell from ~$60 to as low as $36 a share in roughly a month during the 2020 Coronavirus crash. That is about 40% decline, fortunately for the bulls, was followed by a recovery to approximately $55 by the end of the year. Is this a good time to join Coca-cola bulls? The daily chart above makes it possible to analyze KO’s structure from its $60.09 top from an Elliott Wave perspective. The sharp decline to $36.20 can be seen as a five-wave impulse, labeled 1-2-3-4-5 in wave (A).  The EW theory states that a three-wave correction follows every impulse, before the price resume in the direction of the impulse. Another 40% Plunge Threatens Coca Cola Investors That three-wave correction fit in for the advance from March 2020 low. The corrective rally in Coca-Cola stock looks like a triple zigzag, labeled as W-X-Y-X-Z. If this count is correct, the bearish reversal from $54.92 high is the beginning of wave (C) down. (C)-waves usually breach the ending point of the corresponding wave (A).  This means bearish targets below $36 a share are highly probable as long as the price stays below wave (B) high.  Besides, the stock has broken out of major correction trendline and made a short-term impulse-corrective cycle, labeled 1-2. Just like there was a massive sell-off in wave 3 during the COVID-19 plunge, it makes a lot more sense for the price to go down rapidly the same way in wave 3 of (C). In my opinion, there are plenty of reasons to prepare for a drop to the low $36 in the months ahead. What's your view on Coca-cola? Let me know in the comment. Thanks for reading! Veejahbee.

Bullish CokeCoke has not recovered since the march drop but was consolidating for some time and printed higher lows as well as an ascending triangle. There is a very bullish TK recross on the 1h and a TK cross above the cloud on the 4h chart, a KUMO (cloud) breakout on the Daily. unfortunately there is a bearish TK cross on the weekly chart however taking the bullish signals on the lower timeframes it could lead to a TK recross on the weekly chart which is the most bullish signal using the ichimoku cloud

KO Set To Move Up Before DownI am back to conducting full studies based on all my algorithms. At the close yesterday, KO signaled Sell on my Precise Signal. This is great news as this algorithm is highly accurate and finding price reversals. Particularly, this has found reversal points on 10 of 11 occasions specific to the Daily chart for KO and the determination of a SELL point. I have the full analysis and explanation of all the target price points on my site as usual. I see it moving up over the next 2 to 4 days as displayed and then down over the next few weeks. I am looking for around a 6% drop from the top which is likely close to 51.00. Let me know what you think.

Great Potential Swing Trade for Coca-Cola (KO)Coca Cola is well below the 200ma and has now bounced off its support. The stock is also in a bullish channel and with earning coming up and some positive news, it looks like it could be great swing trade for coming days/weeks and for a very cheap price in options! Coca Cola is a safe bet, as we can all pretty much agree, the company isn't going anywhere long term. They recently have made lots of adjustments to their business plans moving forward to adapt to the changing market and become more efficient as a company which can be found here: www.coca-colacompany.com With a rise in the coffee market worldwide, Coca-Cola has recently launched their own product which can be found here: www.foxbusiness.com Lastly, hard seltzers were the quickest growing products in the alcohol market last year with drinks such as Trulys gaining popularity. Much like the coffee market, Coca-Cola is launching their first ever alcoholic beverage and jumping on the seltzers band wagon moving forward, that info can be found here: www.usatoday.com
