PepsiCo (PEP) Stock Rallies 7.4% Following Earnings ReportPepsiCo (PEP) Stock Rallies 7.4% Following Earnings Report – What Comes Next? Yesterday, PepsiCo Inc. (PEP) released its quarterly earnings report, which significantly exceeded market expectations: → Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $2.12, surpassing the forecast of $2.02. → Gross revenue reached $22.7 billion, above the projected $22.3 billion. In addition, PepsiCo reaffirmed its full-year guidance: the company expects earnings per share to remain virtually unchanged compared to the previous year, while organic revenue is anticipated to grow by a few percentage points. Executives also outlined development plans for their brand portfolio, emphasising a focus on the growing demand for healthier snacks and a strategic initiative to reduce costs. These factors contributed to PepsiCo Inc. (PEP) becoming one of the top-performing stocks on the market yesterday – its price surged by 7.4%, reflecting strong investor sentiment. What could come next? Technical Analysis of PEP Stock Chart A strong bullish candle formed on the chart yesterday, signalling a spike in demand: → The session opened with an impressive bullish gap, decisively breaking through the July resistance level around $137. → The share price continued to climb steadily throughout the day, forming a long-bodied candle. → The session closed near its high, confirming sustained upward momentum. Notably, on 27 June (highlighted by an arrow on the chart), the stock posted gains on the highest trading volume of 2025 so far (according to Nasdaq data), which can be interpreted as a potential sign of sentiment reversal driven by institutional investors. However, the broader picture remains bearish. PEP stock continues to trade within a long-term downward channel, shaped by declining demand for PepsiCo products and intensifying market competition. Given the above, the following scenario should not be ruled out: the upper boundary of the long-term descending channel may act as resistance in the near term. As the post-earnings euphoria fades, the price could undergo a pullback – for instance, towards the $140 level, which previously served as support. At the same time, the strong fundamental backdrop, reflecting the company’s operational success, could fuel persistent bullish interest. This may empower buyers to challenge and potentially break the long-standing downtrend in PEP shares. This article represents the opinion of the Companies operating under the FXOpen brand only.

PepsiCo: In the Target ZonePepsiCo is currently trading in the middle of our active Long Target Zone (coordinates: $133.53 – $125.10). Although all technical requirements for the correction of wave a in beige have already been met here, we still see some remaining downward potential for the subordinate wave 5 in turquoise within our Target Zone. There's even a 36% chance that the price will fall below our Target Zone as part of the beige wave alt.a , which is relevant for any stop-loss orders and could potentially cause a significant short-term drop. In both our scenarios, however, we expect significant increases after the wave a low. 📈 Over 190 precise analyses, clear entry points, and defined Target Zones - that's what we do.

PepsiCo: A Dividend King at a Discount – Time to Buy?PepsiCo, Inc. (PEP) - Sector: Consumer Defensive - What It Does: Produces beverages and snacks, like Pepsi, Frito-Lay, and Quaker products. Fundamental metrics - Dividend Yield: ~3.5% - Payout Ratio: 67.8% - 5-Year Dividend Growth Rate: 7.2% - Debt-to-Equity Ratio: 2.05 - Return on Equity (ROE): 50.8% - Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: 18.9 - Price-to-Book (P/B) Ratio: 11.6 - Analyst Average Price Target: $167.00 - Consecutive Years of Dividend Increases: 53 -------------------------- Technical Factors The stock is currently experiencing its largest correction since the COVID flash crash, with the last major downturn occurring during the 2008 financial crisis. In such a rare scenario, it's worth considering adding one of the top Dividend Kings to your portfolio. These companies, with a track record of increasing dividends for 50 consecutive years, tend to be financially stable and reliable, making them an attractive option during market corrections. Their consistent dividend payouts offer a solid income stream, providing a level of security in uncertain times. Criteria: - Mid-round number at $150, acting as a psychological level - Channel projection from the top, aligning with the price structure - Equal waves from the top, suggesting symmetry in the correction - Previous resistance levels turning into support, reinforcing the zone - A key trendline inside the marked box, the last missing touch The price has already met most of these criteria, except for the trendline, and it has rejected upwards twice from this zone. That’s why this level presents a solid long-term opportunity to consider an entry from current levels. Make sure to conduct your own fundamental research to ensure the investment aligns with your investment thesis. While I can provide a technical "green light," it’s crucial to confirm that it also fits with the underlying fundamentals.

PepsiCo: Strong ReactionThe Pepsi stock recently showed a strong reaction to the support at $141.52, reinforcing the significance of this level. However, we primarily anticipate that this level will be breached next. During the ongoing magenta wave (5), the price should drop into our beige Target Zone (coordinates: $131.12 – $124.50), which presents potential long-entry opportunities. We primarily expect the beige wave a to conclude within this Zone. But if the stock instead breaks above the resistance at $165.13 (probability: 31%), this will confirm that the low of the beige wave alt.a was settled prematurely.

The global market is rebootingOn February 18, negotiations between the United States and Russia are scheduled to take place in Saudi Arabia. These talks could pave the way for restoring economic relations and addressing global challenges. “American companies lost over $300 billion by exiting the Russian market,” said Kirill Dmitriev, head of RFPI, on the eve of talks with the U.S. delegation in Saudi Arabia. He emphasized the importance of economic dialogue, noting that the Russian market remains attractive to investors. It is now known that several major American companies intend to return to Russia. Amid a potential thaw in U.S.-Russia relations, Visa (#Visa), Mastercard (#MasterCard), Apple (#Apple), PepsiCo (#PepsiCo) and McDonald's (#McDonald) have all announced their intentions in recent days. The U.S. stock market remains resilient thanks to domestic growth drivers. Additionally, several key factors are expected to drive growth in the near future: Federal reserve monetary policy: A possible rate cut or maintaining low interest rates is spurring investments. This, in turn, boosts company valuations and pushes up indices such as the Dow Jones (#DJI30) and S&P 500 (#SP500). Technology sector: Ongoing advancements in AI, cloud services, and biotechnology are attracting capital. Moreover, integrating artificial intelligence into large businesses helps reduce costs by automating routine processes, while AI algorithms enhance strategic planning and risk management. Corporate earnings growth: Increasing corporate profits are one of the key factors supporting the positive momentum in the stock market, including the S&P 500 (#SP500), which reflects the performance of the 500 largest U.S. companies. Strong quarterly reports from these companies play a crucial role in reinforcing investor confidence and ensuring market stability. Geopolitical expectations: Tensions among major global players like the U.S., EU, and Russia could lead to sanctions, trade wars, and economic restrictions, which negatively impact the global economy and stock markets. A thaw in relations could reduce the likelihood of such conflicts and, consequently, lower the risks associated with sanctions and instability. FreshForex analysts are confident that as geopolitical tensions ease, companies will start to return, which will undoubtedly drive up their stock prices.

PEPSI to $182 - Up to 14% ROI PossibleNASDAQ:PEP stock is currently trading at a discount to its fair value. That's why traders and investors should have a look at this bluechip, especially given its low beta statistic. Of course, macroeconomic uncertainties, such as the University of Michigan's latest consumer sentiment survey (which projects inflation to rise to 2.90% from 2.60% next year), could have an impact on consumer spending, which could squeeze margins. Nevertheless, given the undervaluation, Pepsi has a safety net for things like that under current circumstances. When looking at the technical analysis we can se a big support zone at $158, where we are currently residing. The stock bounced multiple times from this zone in the past and could certainly do so again. Given the double bottom we have a good opportunity to get in the trade right now. Target one would be the descending trend line at $172 and target two would be the resistance zone at $183. That would give us a ROI of up to 14.24% in total. Closing below $156 on the daily would invalidate the trading idea. Target Zones $172.00 $183.00 Support Zones $156.00

Pepsi Co to test 157$ resistance, what's next?Pepsi co had a steady bull run from March of 2020 to May 2023, where the price doubled in a span of three years after testing it's long term support line in March of 2020 at 100$. Since May 2023, the price is in a downtrend and even Trump pump did not help it! Currently price is about to test its short term resistance at 157$. This price coincides with 0.382 fibonacci retracement level. If the price holds there, there might be a chance for Pepsi co to break out of the downtrend and start a bull run. However, if the resistance does not hold and price fall below 150$, we are probably going to test the long term trend line (green line) which has been a support since market crash of 2009. If that happens, then we will be looking at prices around 130$ per share. This price is retracement level of 0.618 of fibonacci level.

PepsiCo Stock Struggles Amid Weak Revenue and Guidance CutPepsiCo Inc. (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PEP ) has long been a staple of the food and beverage industry, with a reputation for consistent growth and strong brand recognition. However, recent performance suggests a slowdown in momentum, as both technical indicators and fundamental data point to challenges ahead for the stock. Declining Revenue and Softened Outlook On Tuesday, PepsiCo (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PEP ) reported its fiscal third-quarter results, revealing a mixed performance that failed to meet Wall Street's expectations. The company posted earnings per share of $2.31, narrowly surpassing analyst expectations of $2.29, but its revenue of $23.32 billion fell short of the anticipated $23.76 billion ugh too bad. This marks a 0.6% decline in net sales compared to the same quarter last year. The revenue shortfall is largely attributed to the impact of product recalls in its Quaker Foods North America division, a key segment of the company’s portfolio. Quaker Foods saw a 13% volume drop following recalls related to salmonella contamination and the subsequent closure of a production facility. The weakening demand in the U.S. market, alongside disruptions in international markets such as Latin America and the Middle East (Tensions between Israel, Iran and Lebanon), exacerbated PepsiCo's woes. PepsiCo CEO Ramon Laguarta acknowledged the challenges, noting that weaker-than-expected sales, particularly in its snack and beverage divisions, have weighed heavily on the company's outlook. As a result, PepsiCo (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PEP ) trimmed its full-year organic revenue growth forecast, now expecting only a low-single-digit rise, down from the previous 4% projection. Moreover, despite some resilience in brands like Gatorade and Pepsi within the North American beverage segment, overall volume declined by 3%, underscoring the broader slowdown in consumer demand. Rising inflation and shifts in consumer behavior have prompted shoppers across various income levels to cut back on discretionary spending, especially on premium products. Let's check out what the Technical data says From a technical perspective, PepsiCo’s stock is reflecting the underlying weaknesses in its business. After consolidating within a tight range for much of the year, NASDAQ:PEP has now formed a bearish reversal pattern, signaling the potential for further downside. As of the latest premarket trading, the stock is down 0.66%, and its technical indicators suggest that more selling pressure may be on the horizon. The relative strength index (RSI) stands at 32.74, inching closer to the oversold territory, which reflects a growing bearish sentiment. An RSI reading below 30 typically indicates that a stock is oversold, but NASDAQ:PEP is dangerously close to crossing that threshold, which could spur a wave of panic selling. Furthermore, PepsiCo's stock is currently trading below its key moving averages, with the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages converging at a critical juncture. When these averages converge and begin to trend downward, it often signals that a stock could face extended bearish momentum. In this case, the bearish crossover suggests that NASDAQ:PEP may experience further downside movement in the near term. The stock is also hovering near a crucial support level at $158, a pivot point that, if breached, could open the door to a steeper decline. Should NASDAQ:PEP break below this support, it may revisit its recent lows, potentially entering a more prolonged bearish trend. Conclusion: A Cautious Outlook for PepsiCo Investors PepsiCo's (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PEP ) revised guidance for organic revenue growth indicates that management is bracing for slower growth ahead, and this cautious outlook has weighed on investor sentiment. From a technical standpoint, PepsiCo’s stock appears vulnerable to further declines, with bearish patterns and weak momentum pointing to the possibility of additional downside. The stock's proximity to a critical support level at $158, coupled with a low RSI and downward-trending moving averages, suggests that investors should exercise caution. PepsiCo (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PEP ) may face headwinds in the coming months. While the company remains a long-term blue-chip investment, short-term traders and investors should monitor the stock closely for any signs of a reversal, particularly if the stock breaches its key support level. Until the company can demonstrate stronger revenue growth and address its operational challenges, NASDAQ:PEP may continue to underperform relative to market expectations.

Pepsico (PEP): Breakout or Rebound? Earnings Report IncomingThis week, Pepsico is set to announce its earnings, and we continue to monitor the same pattern that has persisted for a while now. PepsiCo's recent $1.2 billion acquisition of Siete Foods is a strategic move to expand Frito-Lay's "better-for-you" snack segment. Although the near-term impact on revenue is expected to be minimal, Citi predicts a modest contribution to overall growth. The deal is anticipated to close in 2025, broadening PepsiCo's multicultural portfolio. From a technical perspective, NASDAQ:PEP is still moving within the established range. We've added zones above and below the range and highlighted each instance when NASDAQ:PEP broke through the range. Except for one occurrence, all these breakouts provided good entry opportunities. The future direction remains uncertain, but the key is whether Pepsico can hold its level upon breaking through the range—it needs to hold to sustain momentum rather than falling back. For now, we continue to keep a close watch on NASDAQ:PEP and are waiting for this week's earnings report to provide further clarity. ✅

PepsiCo: Analyst Bullish Despite Slowdown, Sees 17% UpsidePepsiCo, the giant in the beverage and snack food industry, is currently under the spotlight as analysts adjust their price targets ahead of its upcoming quarterly earnings report. Amidst varying evaluations, one Wall Street analyst remains notably optimistic about the stock's future, suggesting a significant upside potential. Banking on Continued Profitability: Analyst Bryan Spillane of Bank of America Securities remains bullish on PepsiCo despite lowering his price estimate from $210 to $190 per share. Spillane's objective suggests a potential 17.2% increase over the following 12 months, demonstrating significant confidence in PepsiCo's steady profitability and earnings power. PepsiCo's Financial Resilience: Spillane acknowledges some concerns regarding soft demand in the food and beverage sector but believes PepsiCo's current valuation is attractive. The company has a solid track record of profitability, supported by its strategic pricing and product placement. Spillane's confidence is further bolstered by PepsiCo's ability to maintain healthy profit margins despite industry challenges. PepsiCo's Strengths and Opportunities: PepsiCo has always been a favorite choice for investors due to its diverse product portfolio and consistent dividend payouts. The company's strong presence in both snacks and beverages ensures a steady revenue stream. Presently, PepsiCo offers a dividend yield of over 3%, making it an appealing option for income-focused investors. Growth Amidst a Slowdown: Even with recent concerns about a slowdown, PepsiCo's results remain robust. Despite a modest 2.3% sales increase in Q1, this follows years of consistent revenue growth. In 2023, the company's sales increased by 8.7%, with a 10-year CAGR of 3.3%, showcasing PepsiCo's resilience and consistent growth capability. Pricing Strategies: PepsiCo's revenue growth has largely been driven by strategic price increases. Despite higher prices potentially affecting volume sales, the company has successfully increased its overall revenue. This approach underscores PepsiCo's strong brand equity and its ability to navigate market dynamics effectively. Valuation and Dividend Appeal: Given PepsiCo's current trading price, investors have a valuable opportunity. The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of the stock is currently 20.6, which is less than its historical average of 23 to 25. With PepsiCo's astounding record of 52 years of dividend increases, this reduction presents a unique opportunity to purchase shares at a discount in a dependable and rapidly expanding business. Broader Industry Context: The non-alcoholic beverage market is evolving, with major brewers like Carlsberg expanding their soft drink portfolios to adapt to changing consumer preferences. Carlsberg's recent acquisition of Britvic, a Pepsi and Lipton distributor, underscores the growing importance of the non-alcoholic segment. This trend reflects a broader industry shift towards diversification and catering to health-conscious consumers. Strategic Implications: PepsiCo is well-positioned for future growth thanks to its sustained emphasis on both its core products and smart acquisitions. The company remains an appealing option for investors seeking steady returns due to its robust dividend policy and ability to balance price hikes with volume sales. Conclusion: PepsiCo remains a strong contender in the beverage and snack food market, with analysts like Bryan Spillane projecting significant upside potential. Despite a recent slowdown in growth, the company’s strategic pricing, consistent profitability, and attractive valuation present a solid investment opportunity. As PepsiCo prepares to release its second-quarter earnings, investors should closely monitor its performance and consider the long-term benefits of holding PEP stock in their portfolios.

Unleashing Potential: Strategic Growth And Innovation Of CelsiusCelsius® is a company that was founded in April 2004. It has benefited from the high demand for healthy products without artificial ingredients. It constantly innovates as it expands its portfolio with its scientifically proven beverage lines, and its presence consolidates in the US and reaches international levels. The price performance results in significant progress in market capitalization, leading to its exit from the Russell 2000 index.  Performance against the S&P 500: Next, I present my investment thesis based on what you believe about a company. The Seeking Alpha portal data was essential for me to have felt the growth trajectory of it. The analysis focused on specific aspects that indicate the expansive potential of the organization. CELH is adding to a considerably higher financial challenge compared to an industry median across multiple metrics: Source: Seeking Alpha The table showed a detailed view of CELH's financial and operational indicators, which stand out both in relation to the sector average and the company's historical design in recent years. Including aspects such as profit margins, profitability of capital and assets, CAPEX allocation, efficiency and liquidity. It is superior in several areas, mainly in Revenue Growth where it stood out with 227%. Considering this information, profit margins also stand out, as shown by the sector's median indicator, in relation to the CELH percentage, good indexes, etc., exceeding industry expectations and highlighting the effectiveness of management in producing value. The increase in profits is also highlighted in the free cash flow per share, added to the share price performance in 2023, along with the growth in ROE and the operating cash flow growth indicator, showing a remarkable growth outlook. CAPEX is what catches my attention the most, because there was a reduction in business expenses of US$ 17.43 million from the US$ 8.26 million reached a year ago, looking at the performance of other years. Qualitative analysis: Deepening the qualitative analysis of the company, I will list points that interpret directly from the 2023 annual report. The organization relies on the experience and commitment of John Fieldly, who, as president and CEO, sets the direction and improves the efficiency of the Celsius holding. The team is made up of: Jarrod Langhans, as CFO, manages finances and supports growth. Tony Guilfoyle, commercial director. Kyle Watson, marketing director. Toby David, team leader. Paul Storey oversees the supply chain. Rich Mattessich looks after legal and compliance. Robin Lybeck and Ronnie Char manage operations in Europe and Asia. Danielle Babich focuses on human capital development. And finally Brant P. Burchfield on sustainable growth. It has also become more solid in the drinks market by creating alliances with important figures in the sector such as AB InBev, Keurig Dr Pepper and Molson Coors. But the main one is PepsiCo (PEP), resulting in an investment of $550 million. Source: Yahoo Finance, Annual Reports Risks: It is important to highlight that the company, as interesting as it is, has considerable risks and this ends up having an impact in the long term. We will analyze the risks and opportunities below based on the 2023 annual report: Celsius runs the risk of damaging its brand reputation and losing consumer confidence due to product quality problems, negative publicity or changes in consumer preferences. The drinks sector has been very fierce and the possible emergence of other competitors could be a risk, negatively affecting its market share and possibly the company's profits. In addition, the company has faced difficulties in expanding into new markets, including the fact that other countries are bound by trade barriers and bureaucratic regulations. There is concern about a company's cybersecurity. With the increase in attacks and the dependence on information technology to carry out their operations, as well as data breaches and exposure that cause reputational damage; as well as loss of intellectual property and sanctions and fines for not following compliance. Also mentioned in the annual report, another concern is recalls, which pose risks to brands and regulations. Source: Annual Reports Based on my qualitative analysis of the annual report and what I consider to be the company's direction, it seems that it is investing in seizing opportunities in the energy drinks market, especially through strategies with partner companies, such as the partnership with Pepsi, which operates in a very divided environment.However, unnecessary dependence on the partnership represents a significant risk, as any change of mood between them could cause significant financial damage. In addition, the company must continue to modernize its product range to satisfy the growing needs of consumers and not just limit itself to the local market, which in this case is the United States, but also expand its product range to other countries. Fundamental analysis: The data shows good progress in its financial health, as evidenced by the consistent growth in its assets from 2020 to 2023. This increase shows continued advancement and planned investments in resources and business opportunities. Net equity also increased, reflecting the company's ability to generate profits and attract investment, strengthening its financial base and market position. The company's total capitalization indicates balanced financing management, combining debt and equity. However, it is important to maintain debt management at viable levels to maintain financial stability. Increased working capital shows good management of financial resources, increasing the company's ability to meet short-term obligations and finance daily operations. Total debt stability is positive as long as the company maintains a good balance between debt and equity. Market Opinion Technical Analysis: I will now complement our study with technical analyses. This method is based on the market's trading volume, and to facilitate understanding. I will present a legend that simplifies the analysis, making it clear and concise. Our focus will be on aspects that are aligned with the company's fundamentals, avoiding numbers or patterns that do not add value to the analysis. Investment decisions are made after an in-depth analysis of assets, where investors look for advantages or discrepancies in fundamentals, or data that does not correspond to the company's reality. Hot and cold candlesticks act as a thermometer to assess the buying and selling transactions that occurred during the trading week. The volume indicator includes the delta variation between buyers and sellers, representing the active flow of assets. e observe an ascending channel with rising tops and bottoms, indicating that the market retreated with a lower seller flow than the last buyer, thus forming an accumulation band. There is also a notable buyer dominance over the years. Sales volumes appear to be related to profit making or batches that were not continued. With the recent rise, along with the Nasdaq index, we anticipate that the market may pull back before resuming the upward trend. look at the caption: Take a look at the image below: Analyzing some articles that talk about Celsius, both are very recent. which discusses the company's rise in relation to Monster and Redbull, and the text emphasizes that even after Celsius' growth, it may suffer a slight slowdown, despite showing a good valuation, and also expresses concern about the company's premium valuation and its ability to sustain growth to justify it. Furthermore, the author projects growth for the company, but is quite cautious about this. I agree with both opinions and, in fact, the technical analysis they perform complements the pullback view, although they complement each other. What we have to observe is that combining performance and profit, cutting expenses, combined with the boom in the NASDAQ index, we can see a good opportunity to continue buying a company. However, for those who are buying now, they need to be very careful because it is at the top and a correction in the channel's VWAP could occur. Market concerns about Celsius being overbought could drag it to the $42 region before the market resumes its upward trend. I believe that this corrective wave in the market can occur even if the company delivers good numbers, which is normal for any stock.
