Coca-Cola Aims to Fizzle Back to Growth After Years of Flat Sales
• Coca-Cola stock has underperformed the market for decades, only delivering 122% gains over the past 10 years compared to 232% for the S&P 500
• Coca-Cola has revitalized sales after years of declines by cutting its brand portfolio, raising prices amid inflation, and generating higher income
• Annual sales are still below 10 years ago levels, but the recent growth indicates Coca-Cola may finally beat the market after years of underperformance
• As an established value stock, Coca-Cola is unlikely to beat the high growth market long-term, but offers dividends, diversity, and stability
• Even if it doesn't outperform, Coca-Cola can provide passive income with its 3.2% dividend yield and 62 years of annual dividend growth
