Earlier this week I purchased shares of the soft drink giant Coca-Cola (KO). This is my first position in the stock and I managed to purchase 32 shares at $38.00 which is about a little over a dollar away from a 1 year low. The stock has been under some selling pressure along with much of the overall market recently and I thought it was a great time to take advantage of that. I try not to buy stocks which have a P/E ratio over 20 and Coke is right there. However it's forward P/E is around 15.5 which isn't too bad especially when looking at Coke's historic P/E ratio. At this price the yield was a solid 3% and Coke is due for another dividend raise next quarter as well!
