Coca-Cola is a big beverage company. I invested $11947.36 to buy 178 shares of the stock in KO.
The stock price of this company is stable, and also the dividend is stable and good. This stock is one of
the tropical blue chips. While I invented in this company, I expected the steady price and dividend.
After one day when I bought the shares, the price rose up quickly, and the price was seemed to
maintain. At that time, the stock market was a bull market. Besides, on July 19, the company announced
their earning. REUTERS reported the regular second-quarter dividend was $0.47 per share, and secondquarter earning was $1.17 per share. This earning was higher than first-quarter. These good results on a
bull market cause that the stock price was increasing
However, during next a few days, the price decreased slowly because the stock market was not
good. Investors avoided the situation which they lose their money. The prospect of America economy
was not good, and other counties’ economy situation also was bad. For instance, when American stock
market was not good, Europe stock market and Asia stock market was not good according to
MarketWatch.
At first, I didn’t expect that the price of the company would increase. I just thought the
company’s dividend and a low risk. However, I could make around 100 dollars. As a blue chip company,
KO always includes in Best Dividend Stock. Although non-alcohols market is highly competitive market,
KO will maintain the status. I am satisfied that I invested 40% of my whole money in KO.
