Well I just couldn't help myself this past Friday and made another purchase. It wasn't that long ago that I had doubled up my position in PepsiCo, February 14th to be exact but the price continued to decline so I added some more. I was fairly impressed with their 4Q and full year 2013 results and really like their outlook going forward. Despite being named PepsiCo, they are much more than a soda company. Besides the namesake brand of cola they have several other soda, tea, coffee, and juice brands under their control as well as a hefty snack division. Like a lot of the large cap US consumer staple companies, the domestic market is pretty much fully developed and in some instances, like soda consumption, declining. Fear not though as PepsiCo has a large presence in the developing and emerging markets and that's exactly where the real growth will come from.
