COKE - Coca-Cola Consolidated: I Hope You Bought The Stock (Rating Downgrade)
2024-05-08 07:30:15 ET
Summary
- Coca-Cola Consolidated is the largest bottler of non-alcoholic beverages in the US, with a strong track record of delivering value to shareholders.
- COKE's recent decision to buy back shares has pushed its valuation to a level that is not attractive for investors.
- I am downgrading my rating on COKE stock to "HOLD" considering other undervalued stocks for investment.
