Coca-Cola Company (KO) last closed at $83.49, near the top of its 52-week range of $65.35–$85.68. Composite market sentiment across 1 analysis is positive (+32 on a −100 to +100 scale), as of Jul 12, 2026.

## What the data says

At $83.49, Coca-Cola is trading close to the top of its 52-week range of $65.35 to $85.68 — within about 3% of the high, and roughly 28% above the low. That range is a narrow one by the standards of the wider market, and the stock's beta of 0.35 says the same thing in a different way: over the past year it has moved with only a fraction of the market's amplitude, drifting upward rather than swinging.

The market is capitalizing the business at roughly $359 billion, or about 26 times trailing earnings and 24 times forward estimates — a mild step down that implies earnings are expected to grow into the current price. Profitability is genuinely high: a 27.8% net margin on revenue that grew 12.1%, which is the combination that supports both the multiple and the price-to-book ratio of 10.7 — a figure that reflects how little of this company's value sits in physical assets on the balance sheet. The dividend yield is 2.54%.

Recent coverage is dominated not by company-specific events but by income and dividend commentary. Several of the past week's headlines are general pieces on dividend-growth strategies and retirement portfolios in which Coca-Cola appears as an example, and one notes its recent performance against the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100. There is no earnings, product, or regulatory news in the current flow — the stock is being written about for the category it represents rather than for anything it has just done.
