I looked at the value of KO in March 2015. In 2015 KO was good value on every metric other than the current price to earnings ratio. In 2015 the price of KO varied around the US$40 level. The current price is near to the price KO averaged during 2015. However, KO’s earnings have improved slightly since 2015.
KO has also continued raising the dividend as it has done for over 50 years. The increasing dividend means that the yield at the current price is better than the yield that was available for most of 2015.
