Fundamental Analysis

To keep things simple, I like this stock for a CALL due to their market competitors financial statements. After looking at their financials the main thing I noticed in comparison with Coke was the NET MARGIN%. Pepsi ranged from 10.32% to 12.66% while Coke (9.95%to 9.03%). These were quarterly comparisons and it tells me that Coke isn't profiting as much as they could be compared to other market leaders. Even though both Pepsi and Coke will strip their Super Bowl Ads, Pepsi will still sponsor the halftime show!

Technical Analysis

Stochastic RSI: White line is rising up towards the green line yet, still at a low point on the indicator which means price could be retesting the current resistance zone.

Fibonnaci: Ranged from the potential "Current Support Zone" to the "Current Resistance Zone". I'm looking for a retracement of the previous high being $147.37. I'm expecting a retracement of anywhere between 30% and higher.

MacD Squatter: White line is still below the zero line and momentum is losing strength. Tells me that price could be moving up.

Current Price:$ 141.70 After Hours 
Strike Price: $141.78 - $148.00.



Stop Loss: $132.00
