Recent Buy - Pepsico (PEP)


This feels like a bit of a deja vu since I just bought Coke (KO) but earlier this week I purchased shares of the soft drink giant Pepsico (PEP). This is my first position in the stock and I purchased 14 shares at $81.46 a share. I really wish I would have had the money to make this purchase a few weeks ago when Pepsi was around $78 !!! Recently PEP announced a generous 15.4% dividend increase which brings the dividend yield from 2.8% up to around 3.3% which is great.
PepsiCo, Inc. (PepsiCo), incorporated on November 13, 1986, is a global food and beverage company. Through the Company's bottlers, contract manufacturers and other partners, the Company makes, markets, sells and distributes a range of foods and beverages in more than 200 countries and territories.
