Organic revenue climbed 14% and global unit case volume edged up 2%. With a dividend yield of 2.91% and a record of 63 consecutive years of dividend increases, Coca-Cola continues to be viewed as a stable investment in a turbulent market.
According to AInvest, Coca-Cola's strategic partnerships with Brown-Forman BF BF.B)) and Molson Coors Beverage TAP mark a significant expansion into the alcoholic beverage market. These collaborations could diversify Coca-Cola's product offerings and drive revenue growth, reinforcing its status as a stable investment choice.

The bank reported a record annual profit of $58.5 billion, bolstered by a fourth-quarter showing with net income of $4.81 per share and revenue of $4.7 billion, up 6% year over year.
