The Coca-Cola Company (KO - Free Report) commands a strong market position due to its global reach, strong brand power offering an ever-growing choice of quality beverages including low- and no-calorie options, expanding international presence, a solid global bottling network and an impressive cash position. Its wide portfolio of sparkling and still beverages has allowed it to consistently gain volume and value share in the beverage market.
Investors should note the recent earnings estimate revisions for KO have been stable in the last 30 days. Moreover, KO has a solid history in earnings season. KO has delivered positive earnings surprises for three of the past four quarters, making for an average positive earnings surprise of 1.51%.
Last year, it generated $8 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $47 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce ""the world's first trillionaries,"" but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.
