Sure, you may enjoy the taste of Coca-Cola more than a can of Pepsi — or vice versa — but which company possesses the superior stock?

Each business maintains an advantage over the other, as well as a disadvantage.

Let's look at some of them to see which stock is right for your portfolio:

Pepsi's house of brands is far larger than Coca-Cola's. The company owns an extensive portfolio of food brands: Lay's, Cheetos, Aunt Jemima, Quaker Oats, and Doritos.

Coca-Cola has its products in more than 200 countries, with approximately 80% of its revenues originating from outside the United States. For Pepsi, this figure is about 40%.

On the revenue front, Coca-Cola had endured witnessed three consecutive years of falling sales, which took a bite out of its earnings. Pepsi has enjoyed greater revenue growth.

Also, Coca-Cola has a greater market capitalization than Pepsi: $235 billion compared to $219 billion.

When it comes to dividends, Pepsi pays $1.08 per share per quarter, while Coca-Cola gives its shareholders $0.42 a share per quarter.

Overall, because Pepsi's share price is nearly $160, Coca-Cola is the better stock, trading at around $54. You can get a better bang for your buck — or soda can.
