KO

Catch the Wave - "1986 Coca-Cola Slogan"Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst. 📈KO has been overall bullish, trading above the red trendline. Moreover, it is approaching a demand zone marked in red. 🏹 The highlighted red circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of the demand zone and red trendline acting as a non-horizontal support. 📚 As per my trading style: As #KO approaches the red circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...) 📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management. Good luck! All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly! ~Rich

KO Coca-Cola and the E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald’sIf you haven`t bought the dip on KO: Now you need to know that Coca-Cola (KO) could see a decline due to the E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald’s, as the two brands have a longstanding partnership, with Coca-Cola products being served widely in McDonald's restaurants. Negative publicity impacting McDonald's could indirectly affect Coca-Cola by reducing in-store traffic, which may lower beverage sales. Additionally, Coca-Cola's association with fast food means that consumer sentiment shifting towards healthier options could further impact sales. If the outbreak spurs changes in public dining behavior, Coca-Cola may face a temporary decline in demand across other food service venues, potentially impacting its stock performance.

Coca-Cola (KO): Pullback Opportunity as Limit Order FillsOur first limit order for Coca-Cola was filled last Friday as the stock retraced over 11% from its peak at the upper trendline. Despite Coca-Cola's management expressing confidence in their recent performance, investors remain cautious. Zoran Bogdanovic, CEO of Coca-Cola HBC AG, stated, “I am pleased that our Q3 results build on the strength of our first half... However, we remain mindful of macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges.” This pullback appears to be a natural and necessary correction. Coca-Cola is typically a slow-moving, stable stock, and its surprising 43% rise over the past year warranted a healthy correction. The RSI is inching closer to the oversold zone, and a hidden bullish divergence is forming, lending support to our long-term bullish outlook. We’re prepared for a deeper retracement and have a second limit order set in the middle of the golden pocket (50-61.8% Fibonacci retracement), just above the Point of Control (POC). Given Coca-Cola’s reputation as a stable “safe haven” stock rather than a volatile investment, we’re maintaining a patient and calculated approach.

Coca-Cola’s Q3 Report:Strong Revenue Growth and Bullish OutlookCoca-Cola reported its third-quarter earnings on October 23, 2024, showcasing both resilience and the ongoing challenges posed by global economic conditions. Despite a slight decline in reported net revenue, the beverage giant managed to achieve growth in key areas, reflecting its ability to adapt to external pressures. Key Takeaways from Q3 2024 Earnings Revenue & Earnings Performance Organic Revenue: Rose by 9%, showing strong core performance. Reported Net Revenue: Fell by 1% to $11.9 billion, down from $11.95 billion a year ago, primarily due to currency fluctuations and increased operational costs. Adjusted EPS: Increased by 5% to $0.77, driven by effective pricing strategies. Reported EPS: Dropped by 7% to $0.66 due to currency headwinds and rising operational expenses. Despite currency-related challenges, Coca-Cola’s strategic pricing adjustments helped offset inflationary pressures, leading to gains in adjusted earnings. However, operating income was negatively impacted by a 23% decline, attributed to restructuring costs and currency movements. Regional Highlights North America: Revenue surged by 12%, with smart pricing strategies effectively managing inflationary pressures. This region remained the strongest contributor to Coca-Cola's overall performance. Latin America: Saw a remarkable 24% rise in organic revenue. However, severe currency devaluation caused a 20% negative impact on reported revenue, highlighting the global challenges the company continues to face. Asia-Pacific: Reported revenues fell by 4%, though a 3% organic recovery signaled underlying demand despite regional economic difficulties. China & Turkey: Sales volumes struggled, with ongoing economic pressures leading to a contraction in these markets. Strategic Moves & Financial Challenges One of the biggest hurdles this quarter was the impact of a $6 billion tax deposit related to litigation with the IRS, which significantly strained Coca-Cola’s cash flow. Despite this, Coca-Cola remains financially resilient, leveraging its strong foundation to withstand such pressures better than many other corporations. Driving Growth Through Innovation & Partnerships Coca-Cola continues to push forward with digital innovation and strategic partnerships: 2024 Summer Olympics: Coca-Cola’s collaboration generated over 42 million impressions for its smartwater brand, part of its broader strategy to integrate digital technologies. AI & Data Analytics: Coca-Cola is increasingly using AI to optimize pricing, enhance operational efficiencies, and better target consumers, helping to manage costs and shape future strategies. Future Outlook Looking ahead, Coca-Cola is projecting a 10% growth in organic revenue for the full year of 2024. Despite ongoing currency headwinds expected to reduce EPS growth by 5%, the company is confident in its ability to navigate these challenges. Investments in digital transformation, brand expansion, and strategic adaptability are seen as key drivers for long-term success. Technical Analysis: Potential Bullish Reversal From a technical standpoint, the chart indicates a potential bullish seasonality ahead. A possible demand area has been identified, where large speculators may begin building long positions. Patience is essential, as traders wait for a confirmed reversal signal within this demand zone, potentially setting up for a long entry. Conclusion Coca-Cola’s Q3 performance underscores its ability to manage economic headwinds while pursuing growth opportunities. As it continues to invest in digital innovation, strategic partnerships, and product adaptability, the company remains well-positioned for sustained long-term growth. Traders and investors should keep an eye on the upcoming demand area for a potential bullish setup, aligning with the broader market's favorable seasonality. ✅ Please share your thoughts about KO in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my analysis.

COCA COLA bottomed. Get ready for a +20% rally.Last time we looked at the Coca-Cola Company (KO) was at the end of the previous year (December 07 2023, see chart below), giving a buy signal, which eventually hit our $62.00 Target, even though it had to take longer than we expected: This time, the price action is giving us yet again a very strong buy signal as the price rebounded yesterday exactly on the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement level of the 1-year Channel. At the same time, so did the 1W RSI, reversing upwards below its MA level, consistent with the previous two bottoms of April 12 2024 and October 06 2023. Based on the lowest rally we had within this Channel, we expect Coca Cola to rise by at least +19.45%, setting our Target at $79.70. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

KO (Coca-Cola): Ready to Bid on the PullbackIn our last analysis on Coca-Cola, we discussed waiting for the right opportunity to bid on $KO. We believe that opportunity has just presented itself. The stock has seen a solid surge over the past month, which is impressive for a defensive stock like Coca-Cola. The price has now tapped the trendline we mentioned previously, suggesting a possible chance to long the intra wave ((iv)). The RSI is currently heavily overbought, which further aligns with our expectation of a pullback, and Coca-Cola has also respected the 161.8% Fibonacci level quite well so far. Our plan involves making two entries for this setup. First, we aim to bid at the 38.2% level within the support zone, and if the price continues downward, we will place a second bid at the golden pocket level around $61.24. This two-step entry strategy will allow us to use Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) to lower our average entry price. Ideally, before reaching our target entry zones, we would like to see some kind of a three-wave corrective structure develop in NYSE:KO , which would further confirm our entry strategy. We will continue to monitor and provide updates as we approach the levels of interest.

Coca-Cola (KO): Strength in Uncertain TimesAfter not taking a look at Coca-Cola for quite a while, it's definitely worth analyzing. As one of the biggest assets in the stock market, Coca-Cola seems to have the most resistance with a relatively low risk/return profile, making it very interesting in times of uncertainty. A shift from risk-on assets to risk-off assets could happen easily. Just by looking at the latest rise, we can see that while there was a big sell-off in all stocks, NYSE:KO only fell by about 1.2%. This showcases the strength I am talking about. After finishing Waves 1 and 2, we got the structure shift for a possible bullish rise. Because the intra-waves aren't very clear on NYSE:KO , we are looking at it from mostly the market structure perspective. Two points are highly interesting: the 3D POC just above the 3D Demand at around $60 and the Weekly Demand at $54. We are looking for a possible long bid on Coca-Cola but will wait for the opportunity to come. When it does, we will share it with you, of course. 🤝

Barclays projects Coca-Cola shares to climb 16%. Idea 18/04/24Shares of The Coca-Cola Company have hovered around the same trading level for the last two and a half years, but analysts at Barclays now predict a potential surge of approximately 16% in the coming months, with a target price of 68 USD in sight. This optimistic forecast is rooted in anticipated growth within the global carbonated drinks market, where Coca-Cola is a major player. The expected market expansion is projected to fuel increases in Coca-Cola's sales. Additionally, Coca-Cola's long-standing status as a dividend aristocrat – known for consistently paying and increasing dividends for over 25 consecutive years – further bolsters confidence in the company's financial stability and growth prospects. Analysing Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE: KO) stock for potential trading opportunities: In the Daily (D1) timeframe, the stock has established a 57.95 USD support level and a resistance at 59.40 USD. Having broken out of its previous trading channel, it has entered a downtrend and is currently testing the trend line. If the support level is breached, a fall to 56.40 USD could be imminent. However, if the stock can break through the resistance at 59.40 USD, it presents a buying opportunity with a short-term target of 62.50 USD. For investors with a medium-term outlook, holding a position with a target of up to 66.40 USD may be worthwhile. — Ideas and other content presented on this page should not be considered as guidance for trading or an investment advice.

I quickly labeled what I had previously looked at to enter my long position. Shown is the first bullish zone I looked at, a second zone that was broken to the upside, supported and broken structure, and most recently a range between 58.85 - 59.85, lasting from Dec 29th, 2023 - Feb 1st, 2024. Price had a strong break above this range and then shortly after fell back into the range zone, which became the new DNT area I have drawn. Today, there was strong bullish momentum that broke out of the zone around 60. Price targets to the upside are drawn up to 63. This is what I would personally look at before entering trades, everything is subject to change on a daily basis and as I analyze different timeframes and ideas.

Coca-Cola: Analyzing Diverging Performance and Investment OpportCoca-Cola: Analyzing Diverging Performance and Investment Opportunities In the world of investments, Coca-Cola's recent stock returns present a notable contrast to its business performance. Despite positive operating trends reported for fiscal 2023, Coke's stock lags behind, raising questions about potential opportunities for investors. Let's explore this divergence and assess whether investing in Coke presents a chance for market-beating returns. While Coke's organic sales saw a 12% increase in 2023, driven mainly by higher prices, sales volume growth slowed to just 2%. This deceleration hints at weakening consumer demand for soda, a trend likely to persist into 2024. Despite projections for a modest 6-7% growth this year, Coke faces challenges in a sluggish industry, with rival PepsiCo forecasting similar struggles. However, Coke's strategic initiatives are promising. Cost reductions, increased prices, and a focus on non-core beverages like sparkling waters and energy drinks fueled a 16% rise in non-GAAP earnings in 2023. Operating profit margins soared to 29%, surpassing PepsiCo's results. CFO John Murphy's optimism about further margin expansion adds to the positive outlook. Moreover, Coke's cash returns are robust. Generating $10 billion in free cash flow in 2023, the company returned nearly the same amount to investors through stock buybacks and dividends. With a dividend payment track record spanning over 60 years, Coke offers steady dividend growth despite short-term cash flow dips. Interestingly, Coke's stock is attractively priced compared to historical metrics and peers like PepsiCo. Despite short-term sales concerns, gaining exposure to Coke's stability and long-term potential makes it a compelling addition to investors' portfolios. In conclusion, while short-term challenges may dampen Coke's stock performance in 2024, its solid fundamentals and attractive valuation make it a worthy consideration for investors seeking stable returns in the long run.

Coca-Cola: Navigating Challenges and Anticipating Growth in 2024Coca-Cola: Navigating Challenges and Anticipating Growth in 2024 Investors in Coca-Cola faced a challenging year in 2023 as the beverage giant's shares declined, ranking it as the sixth-worst-performing stock in the Dow Jones Industrial Average despite a 22% rally in the S&P 500. However, the outlook for 2024 holds promise, supported by compelling factors that indicate a potential turnaround. Factors Driving Optimism: Emphasis on Volume: Despite the challenging market conditions, Coca-Cola strategically emphasized volume growth alongside price adjustments. The company's balanced approach led to an 11% surge in organic revenue in the last quarter of 2023. Market share gains in on-the-go beverages and substantial growth in core segments contributed to this positive momentum. Cash Returns: Shareholders can anticipate enhanced returns as Coca-Cola raised its earnings outlook, projecting an 8% increase for the entire 2023 year. The potential for even higher gains exists if cost inflation continues to moderate. A forthcoming dividend increase, a consistent practice by Coca-Cola, adds to the appeal for investors seeking direct cash inflows. Attractive Yield: Despite recent underperformance, Coca-Cola offers an attractive yield of 3.1%, outpacing competitors like Procter & Gamble and PepsiCo. This, combined with potential capital appreciation, positions Coca-Cola as an appealing choice for income-seeking investors. Price Check and Dogs of the Dow: Coca-Cola emerges as a compelling candidate within the "Dogs of the Dow" strategy, presenting an opportunity for a rebound after its underperformance in the previous year. With a relatively affordable price, currently trading at 5.7 times annual sales, Coca-Cola offers potential advantages over its competitors, including higher income, swifter growth, and superior profit margins. Conclusion: As Coca-Cola investors enter 2024, the strategic emphasis on volume growth, anticipated cash returns, an attractive yield, and a favorable price point contribute to a more optimistic outlook. While challenges in the previous year impacted the stock's performance, the resilience of Coca-Cola's business model and its commitment to shareholder returns position it well for potential superior returns in the coming year and beyond. Our preference LONG positions Above 57.47 with targets at 63.26 & 64.00 in extension.

COCA COLA preparing a final rally to $62.00The Coca-Cola Company (KO) is trading within the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) and 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) following the October 06 market bottom, the lowest level it's been since March 25 2021. This rally since the bottom is technically the (e) - (f) bullish wave of the symmetrical pattern that the stock traded in from April 25 2022 to December 14 2022. Both are Bearish Megaphone patterns with underlying common characteristic, the Lower Highs Zone, which effectively keeps KO still within the Bear Cycle that started on the April 25 2022 All Time High (ATH). With the 1D RSI backing up the pragmatic correlation that the wave-length has one more extension to give, we remain bullish on Coca-Cola, targeting $62.00, which is marginally below both the bottom of the Lower Highs zone as well as the 0.936 Fibonacci retracement level, which is the symmetrical level where the December 14 2022 Lower High was priced at. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

📊 Coca-Cola Stock Analysis 🚀Coca-Cola's stock faced a nearly 50% drop at the onset of COVID-19 but swiftly recovered, forming an impulsive Wave I in April 2022. Since then, it has been in a more extended correction, which might have found support around $51.55. With a strong surge since October 9, the culmination of Wave 1 could be imminent, and we anticipate a Wave 2 correction. As soon as the price starts to decline, signaling a potential correction in Wave 1, I'll send out a limit order. 📈✨

KO EARNINGS CHART - SUGAR DRINKS Potential to see a decent sized exit pump. I would play it like this. IF earnings brings us down to like 43, BUY. IF earnings brings us up to 57-63, SELL. There are only two really short term trends I could find, they both trend down. The rejection trend is quite strong, I expect this stock, if it tops out, to top out around 71. But it's hard to say at this exact moment. Tomorrow we will know more. Be aware, there isn't much more room to the upside, but KO is a slow moving stock, so it could be a long way out. Long term projection is still bullish. There is support at 52-50, and you could see a movement from that number. I'd expect the biggest movement to occur, should earnings take us really negative. I would start to favor the topside.

Coca-Cola: The Dividend Dilemma in Changing TimesCoca-Cola: The Dividend Dilemma in Changing Times Investors are grappling with uncertainty about the long-term prospects of Coca-Cola as an investment. While this beverage giant undeniably dominates its industry and enjoys impressive profit margins, changing consumer preferences away from sugary beverages suggest that Coca-Cola's era of robust growth may be in the rearview mirror. To gain a clearer perspective, let's delve into the key arguments in favor of and against this widely-held dividend powerhouse. In Favor of Coca-Cola: Coca-Cola ticks most of the boxes that investors typically consider when evaluating a core stock holding. Qualitative factors, such as its iconic brand, undeniable competitive advantages, and a long history of sustained growth, align with robust financial metrics encompassing healthy cash flow, profitability, and a consistent track record of dividend increases, making it an attractive choice. While Coca-Cola might not be a growth stock, it has the potential to offer steady returns, even in the face of changing consumer preferences. Despite subdued demand for its traditional products, the company excels in profitability, with operating income reaching 32% of sales in the second quarter. In the first half of 2023, free cash flow hit $4 billion, on par with the prior year's record results. These financial achievements provide Coca-Cola's management with ample resources to invest in brand support through marketing and innovation. Additionally, they bode well for shareholders, as it's highly likely that Coca-Cola will continue its streak of annual dividend increases, targeting its 61st consecutive increase in 2024. Against Coca-Cola: Coca-Cola's glory days from the 20th century may be fading. Soda sales in the United States peaked in 2004 and have been on a steep decline, particularly on a per-capita basis, due to health concerns that have led consumers to opt for alternative beverages. Even diet sodas have not escaped this trend, with sales in this category, a significant cash generator for the industry, declining even faster than regular soda. Coca-Cola has tried to counter these challenges by introducing smaller packaging sizes, raising prices, and diversifying beyond its core soda business, such as through the acquisition of the Costa Coffee chain. However, these efforts have not been sufficient to position the stock as a winner. Over the past decade, the S&P 500 has clearly outperformed Coca-Cola in terms of price appreciation and total returns. The changing landscape of consumer preferences and the ongoing decline in soda consumption present significant headwinds for the company. Lastly, while consumer staples stocks like Coca-Cola have generally thrived in the current economic environment, given the resilience of sales in groceries and essential products, the same cannot be said for Coca-Cola. Even during this favorable context, Coca-Cola has had a less-than-impressive year. If it struggles to outperform in such a climate, it appears less likely to do so when investors regain confidence in an economic recovery and growth stocks come back into favor. In conclusion, Coca-Cola stands at a crossroads. Its resilience and commitment to dividends are unquestionable, but it faces an evolving consumer landscape that has eroded the once-dominant position of sugary beverages. For investors, the decision on Coca-Cola hinges on their risk tolerance and investment objectives, as they weigh the allure of a stable dividend against the challenges of changing consumer preferences.

COCA-COLA: Bad for your health and pocket?The Coca-Cola company has been inside a non-stop decline since July 27th, rending the 1D timeframe technically oversold massively (RSI = 20.830, MACD = -1.200, ADX = 60.609). Even on the 1W timeframe that we are looking at, the 1W RSI (28.402) is on its lowest valuation since COVID. The stock crossed under the 1W MA200, which supported last October (2022), and is about to enter the S1 Zone. When it does, we can attempt a first buy, keep it as long as the Zone's bottom is intact and target the top of the Channel Down pattern (TP = 63.50). If it crosses under the S1 Zone, we will attempt one last buy at the bottom of the Channel Down, again targeting its top (TP = 62.00). ## If you like our free content follow our profile to get more daily ideas. ## ## Comments and likes are greatly appreciated. ##
