🦧 why everyone should buy coca-cola
🍼 i know. warren still drinks it!
coca-cola ($ko): it's not just coke, im talking dasani, fresca, powerade, even minute maid!
berkshire hathaway, famously headed by warren buffett and charlie munger, has been a long-time owner of coca-cola and holds ~10% of $ko

despite the suspension of its russian businesses, the company reported a net income of $2.78B (up 23% from previous year) in its latest earnings report
how it’s done ytd (year-to-date) compared to S&P500:
congrats if you’ve been buying up coca-cola shares so far this year!
💡 something im thinking about…
shoppers who use augmented reality (ar) are less likely to return purchases. never tried it myself, but interesting!
