I'm cancelling the challenge I set up several weeks ago where I would siphon shares of my DPS investment and put them into HANS whenever HANS's share price and earnings reports beat DPS.
Why?
Because I don't see that happening during my lifetime.
As I am tying this the gap between them is:
HANS 22.73
DPS 21.00
$1.73 separate them now compared to a gap of:
HANS $35
DPS: $25.50
That's MAY's stock prices and the gap was $9.50 when DPS first debuted on the stock market.
Face the facts... DPS has disappointed out of the gate ONLY with its share price performance.
It has yet to produce a disappointing earnings report.
Analysts can nitpick and belly ache until the moon crashes into the Earth all the want about DPS's previous earnings report which counts as a MEET.
It's simple. You invest in a BROKEN Share price.... not a broken company.
If DPS is a bad investment then I'll invest my money into CCBEF, PEP, or KO. Although I favor CCBEF over PEP and KO as the #1 and #2 beverage companies do not have the same growth potential.
