Better Beverage Stock: Coca-Cola vs. PepsiCo
Although earnings season has barely started, both PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP) and its archrival, Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO), have already reported earnings for the second quarter of 2025. The waning popularity of soda beverages and, in PepsiCo's case, the falling demand for snack foods, have translated into anemic growth for both companies.
One thing to remember about both stocks is that they have become popular among dividend investors, each maintaining a record of annual dividend hikes for more than half a century. Amid such conditions, one beverage stock may ultimately stand out as a more suitable choice for most investors.
