Recent Buy - Coca-Cola (KO)
This week I decided to purchase more shares of the soft drink titan Coca-Cola (KO). I purchased another 20 shares at a price of $39.38 which was a bit higher than the last time I purchased KO back in February. With the recent market correction I was intending to make a purchase and had narrowed down my choices between Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK) and Coke. In the end I chose Coke but I don't think I could have went wrong with either one. This gives me a total of 61 shares.
The Coca-Cola Company (KO), a beverage company, engages in the manufacture, marketing, and sale of nonalcoholic beverages worldwide. This dividend king has raised dividends for over 50 years in a row.
