Yellow caps return: Coca-Cola’s Passover-safe bottles spark a stock-up

Coca-Cola releases yellow-capped bottles each spring containing cane-sugar Coca-Cola for Passover to signal the drink is kosher for the holiday and free of high-fructose corn syrup. The practice began in 1935 after a rabbi urged Coke to create a Passover-friendly version. While these yellow-cap bottles appear annually, cane-sugar Coke can be purchased year-round as Mexican Coke (usually in glass and pricier). Social media users are buzzing as people stock up during the two-week window.

KO Stock Set for Q4 Showdown as Coca-Cola Names New CEO and Signals Dividend Thrust

Coca‑Cola is set to report its Q4 2025 results before the market opens, with expected EPS of $0.57 and revenue around $12.05 billion. KO has climbed over 10% in the past month and hit a 52‑week high on steady demand and pricing power. The company will name Henrique Braun as CEO on March 31, 2026, succeeding James Quincey, and is exiting North America’s frozen products category to focus on juice. Investors eye a potential dividend hike; analysts maintain a bullish stance with a Strong Buy consensus and price targets near $80–$88, while options imply about a 3% post‑earnings move. Risks include a strong dollar, pressure on low‑income consumers, shifting beverage preferences, and Pepsi’s ongoing competition.

Coca-Cola Phases Out Minute Maid Frozen Juices to Emphasize Fresh Options

Coca-Cola will discontinue Minute Maid frozen juice concentrates in the U.S. and Canada, with sales ending by April 2026 and inventory while supplies last, in a shift to prioritize fresh juices amid changing consumer tastes. The move ends a long history dating to 1946, as frozen concentrate demand wanes, prices rise, and frozen-beverage sales decline (about 8% over the past year, with a December 12-ounce can averaging around $4.82). Coke has also nudged consumers toward Zero Sugar fresh options.
