Coca Cola Stock History, News Events, and Rivals

Today's topic of discussion is the stock history of Coca Cola Company. This is one company that every human even in the most remote part of the earth must have heard or seen it (I am sure the movie Gods' must be crazy would vouch for its influence). Coca Cola is without a doubt one of the most recognizable brands in the world. It is sold in almost every country, and is undoubtedly the most  popular soft drink in the world. I am not going to bother bringing up facts to backup my assertions because, I would consider it as common knowledge. Regardless, I checked up (just to satisfy any doubters), and according to Business Week - Coca Cola Classic is the best selling soft drink in the world. Even with the economic slowdown, the diversity of Coca Cola's business - with interests in all geographic regions, it is possible that the global economic slow down wouldn't be that severe on Coca Cola, and the softening of commodity prices would definitely help coca cola's margins.

General Motors (GM) Stock History, News, Price

 

GM

There was a time when it was considered, I am going to paraphrase it - "What was good for GM, was good for America". Even though the said quote was misquoted, it nonetheless shows how powerful GM was at its prime, and my how far have things fallen. Here is GM begging to the Treasury department asking it for $10 billion to finance its Chrysler deal. Here is a company that was so huge that it's size could be registered as a % of American Economy, could even face bankruptcy in 2 years. GM and Detroit Automakers have so heavily relied on trucks and SUVs' to profit, had to see their earnings vanish due to high gas prices. Now, even though gas prices have now fallen, the fate of GM is still a big question mark.

Steve Jobs

Who doesn't know Apple? Wherever Apple Goes, a new "innovative" product comes up. Love it or Hate it (mostly the later for me), Apple revolutionizes the industry it enters in. The iPod and iPhone are the latest examples of what Apple could achieve if it set its mind to. Right now, about every phone maker out there is trying their best to bring out the perfect imitator to the Iphone, and although many have come close, no one has beat it (I am strongly rooting for a Phone based on Google Android to beat Apple). As you may have figured it out by now, I am no fan of Apple, although I do enjoy their products, have been an owner of Ipod for a long, long time, but there are quite a few things about that annoys me - one of them being how they tried to sneakily get windows users to install Apple Safari browser in disguise of an update to Itunes (That must have sure got the folks at Mozilla and Microsoft all riled up).

Everyone knows Google, in fact, it can safely be said that you found this site most probably through Google Search. In fact, more than 95% of viewers who come upon this site come through Google search pages. Google has such a phenomenal success that its name has basically become a synonym for search. I am sure many have heard the term "Google it", or seen the term being used in movies. In recent months Google has been in news not for its search related business, but for its involvement in a making an Operating System for Mobile Phones. The Android Operating System, if the news reports are to be believed, has become a raging success with T-Mobile increasing its estimates of numbers of HTC's G1 Google Phone being sold or pre-ordered. Another reason Google has been in news was Google Chrome. Google's latest creation to compete against Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

As said earlier, this article will basically concern itself with basic stock information of Google Inc, how it performed for the year to date, how it fared against the rivals, compares to its industry, and the overall indexes of the market.

Chevron Stock Quote (OCT 31) - $74.60

 

Chevron Human EnergyChevron recently posted its third quarter earnings, and lets just say that it's net income soared big time. The rise in its net income was due to higher oil prices, while caused its profit to double. Unfortunately, even such a record profit didn't seem to have much of an effect on its stock price. It could be attributed to the fall in gas prices, and the volatility of gas prices going up and down. In this report, we will discuss Chevron Corporation's Year to date stock market performance, and will compare it to year 2007 performance. The report will also address some of the major news events that have affected Chevron's stock, as well as how it's stock did compared to its competitors like Exxon-Mobil, and the overall Oil and Gas Industry.
