CCL dropping like there's no tomorrow. Down 66 cents as I'm writing.
Does anyone know why?

Re: CCL - Why is it dropping like a rock?
Looks like it was oversold on that day.
When I read the announcement, I gathered that it stated the main competitor, Pepsi, had not passed on cost increases in its pricing yet and this might have affected the volume of CCL sales.
Pepsi will eventually raise its prices and the playing field will probably move towards normalcy.
Possibility: Pepsi did not raise prices at the same time, to avoid attention of ACCC, which is currently in policing mode of price collusion.
There are several oligopolistic structures in the market. All have pricing power. Matter of time before they use it.

Re: CCL - Why is it dropping like a rock?
wow, yep nicely picked up
however just looking at the CCL chart for the year, there seemed to be a double bottom in July, however its just dipped back down? How big does the "bottom" have to be?
Thanks

Double bottom looking good. Got in at 771. Consensus Bloomberg target around 850

Cant give advice, but after ex 17.5c div you are looking at 6.70 plus continued weakness in the short term...imo we will probably see under 6.50 ..we all have different investment ideas,risk and methods, the market is an unforgiving beast to pros and newbies alike...always have an exit plan no matter if its bhp or imp....cheers

Huntleys have a Buy on it today on the basis that the stock is now undervalued.

AFR and SMH have posted articles today re: CCL stating profits will rise by rise by 4.5%. Which is minimal compared to their previous performance.
The fizzy drinks company has forecast a 7 per cent increase in costs this year - at the higher end of its earlier guidance - due to higher prices for sugar, aluminium and PET resin, which is used to make plastic bottles.
Have held the stock for a while and don't like where its going.

Hello Gigabyte,
Agreed. It has wallowed around for too long now, and then this pessimistic outlook which has engendered several negative recommendations from analysts. I'm going to put a sell order in now - think it will continue dropping.
Are you going to hold on?

another thing is that you could possibly short the stock as all state schools are going to fade out all soft drinks and private schools are heading the same way.

As well they should, have you seen how fat kids are these days? They should have the kids doing 30 mins compulsory exercise every morning and eliminate all sugary and salty foods from the canteen, if parents can't look after their kids at least the schools should!

Good luck with it Gigabyte. A few analysts have had a Buy on it for quite a while. That hasn't caused any consistent uptrend in the SP which is all I'm interested in. Current forecasts are for little improvement until probably 2008.
In the meantime I can have that money in BHP e.g. which is what I did yesterday - sold CCL, accepted a loss, and bought more BHP while it was down.

Alcohol may be on Coke's horizon
From: By Katherine Jimenez

Coca-Cola Amatil chief Terry Davis yesterday confirmed the company, which already dominates Australia's $9 billion soft drink market through its soft drinks, water, sports drinks and juices brands, planned to enter the alcohol market.
"We've never ruled out being in the alcohol business," Mr Davis told Nine Network's Business Sunday program.
"Given the strength of our distribution capability, the strength of our sales force capability and new product development, I would think over the next three to five years it is a fairly logical move for us."
Mr Davis, who headed Foster's wine division for more than four years, did not say how CCA would enter the market or what type of alcohol it was interested in distributing.
One clue might come from Coca-Cola Japan, which launched a low-alcohol beer-like beverage in 2004.
Mr Davis said that entering the alcohol market was not on management's agenda today but that it was something CCA was going to "actively look at".
Part of the reason CCA is interested in alcohol has to do with falling consumer demand for carbonated soft drinks.
Coke has offset that slippage by entering into health and wellbeing drink markets, such as water, juice and sports drinks.
In the past five years, revenue from non-carbonated beverages has grown from 5 per cent of group revenue to more than 20 per cent.
Management pushed the boundaries even further last year when it acquired canned fruit and baked bean business SPC Ardmona for $500 million.
Mr Davis said its newly launched Coke Zero - aimed at young men - had "exceeded our expectations".
"It's grown the cola category by six to eight per cent just in the first few months," he said.
