Both PEP and KO have strong histories of not just paying dividends, but increasing them consistently year after year. Their dividends are like clockwork. Even though their stock prices might fluctuate, they’re almost like cornerstones in any dividend growth strategy
especially in times like this when stock prices are a bit lower. As the stock price drops, the yield goes up, so you’re actually getting a better deal on the dividend. It’s almost like you’re locking in a higher yield just by being patient
That’s the beauty of dividend growth investing. The longer you hold, the more you benefit from those compounding dividend increases. Pep and Ko are perfect examples. Even during tough economic conditions, they keep paying and even raising dividends. But, we can’t ignore that yields are also impacted by interest rates, right? When rates rise, some investors shift to bonds or safer income alternatives, which can affect these stocks
That’s true. The yield game isn’t always straightforward. As interest rates rise, dividend stocks might become less attractive compared to bonds or other fixed income options. and beyond that, we can’t overlook that Pep and KO are still businesses with real risks. There’s competition, shifts in consumer preferences, and even inflation impacting their margins
it’s not all smooth sailing. Both companies are giants, but they’re also fighting battles on multiple fronts, like health conscious trends and rising input costs. Even so, their ability to adapt over the decades is what makes them long term plays. But understanding when the stock price is at a good point to buy, and how these factors affect the overall investment, that’s where it can get tricky
That’s where professional advice becomes really valuable. I mean, we know PEP and KO are reliable dividend payers, but figuring out how they fit into a broader portfolio, especially when interest rates and other factors are changing, that’s where a financial advisor can provide real insight
Sven, I worked in CPG foods. Volume sales is going down because of high inflation and store brands. Pepsi’s main competitor is not Coke but Walmart and Aldi store brands, which account for 20% of CPG food sales.
@@steveboyd3455 Yes and no. Store brands used to be cheap low quality options everybody avoided. They are becoming more premium now (so called "premiumization"), even middle and higher income consumers are into them now. CPG food brands are toast.

Pepsi will deliver 14% annualy in next few years. Remember my words. Mean reversion is very strong force with stocks like KO and PEP. Pepsi reached very strong support of PE 18 which was a turning point in many past dips. RSI is below 24 and very oversold as well. If we look at past instances when psi got to PE 18 like now, it was a very good entry point with a loof upside for next few years. Pepsi yielded above 3.25% just 5% of the time since 1995 and 6% yield is a pure fantasy. If that happens than there will be dropping earnings as a rock.
@@PavolKosik-b3u how do you feel about their flat ish FCF? Basically dividend is not guaranteed for the next years if they want to hike and not pay with debt
Thanks Sven - I have acomo for, lets say, food-related dividends. I remember the down of McDonalds when the short term interest rate went above its dividend at the time, and will not only therefore stay out of PEP and KO
One of the reasons that these stocks have recently sold off is the Trump administration. RFK Jr is expected to be hostile towards these companies and force them to replace some of the ingredients with healthier alternatives, for example, cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. However, Coca-Cola would give this responsibility to the bottlers. As we know, the market does not like uncertainty. From a valuation perspective, these stocks have been expensive for a long time. Thanks for your analysis, Sven!
I highly doubt very rich people are selling their dividend king stocks based on fearmongering around RFK Jr. Trying to make money off of that is nothing short of speculation and gambling anyways, not value investing.
Sven, thank you for covering these stocks. I think the revenue growth did not come from covid lockdowns, but from inflation, because these companies can forward their increased costs to customers. So, if we get high inflation again, then their revenues will likely grow with it. PEP seems to be a better value than KO and I started adding it to my dividend portfolio. (Forward PE is 17) I'll keep adding for as long as this stock keeps going down.
Been a watcher for years, always good stuff. I know you like looking at mining cycles, take a look at chemical companies also. Essential businesses that have a clear cycle. Lyb, dow, basfy

Hi Sven! Great video as always! Could you do a video about Crocs (CROX) and/or Evolution (EVO.ST). To stocks I think look very attractive at current prices.
I have been a dividend focused investor for a long time. This does not mean I don't own growth stocks, I do. A well rounded portfolio should be a mixture of both categories. I invest in the market, but never put all my money in market.
The strategies are quite rigorous for the regular-Joe. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset/knowledge to pull such trades off
I can only speak from my experience when I advise seeking professional advice. It looks like a smart bet if you don't know where to get an experienced one, but if you don't know anything about the market.
I've stuck with the popularly ‘’Stacy Lynn Staples” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, I agree with her.
I really appreciate your useful advice. I was able to set up a call with her and confirm her identity. She seems incredibly knowledgeable, and I hope I'm able to connect with her.
Yes. I would also be interested. The PE is a bit high but it deals in engineering polymer rather than the commodity polymers of the companies it gets compared to. Also strong insider buying
My portfolio doesn’t just cater to dividend stocks. I hold $VFIAX (S&P 500 index fund) in my Roth IRA and $VTI (Total Stock Market ETF) in my taxable brokerage account. Two of my largest holdings. The individual dividend stock positions all complement the index holdings.
Even with the right strategies and appropriate assets, investment returns can differ among investors. Recognizing the vital role of experience in investment success is crucial. Personally, I understood this significance and sought guidance from a market analyst, significantly growing my account to nearly a million. Strategically withdrawing profits just before the market correction, I'm now seizing buying opportunities once again.
How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?
''Stacy Lynn Staples'' is the licensed coach I use. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I appreciate it. After searching her name online and reviewing her credentials, I'm quite impressed. I've contacted her as I could use all the help I can get. A call has been scheduled.
Small taxes can affect investment decisions such as whether to choose tax-free municipal bonds over taxable bonds or do a Roth IRA conversion. I’ve been sitting on over $745K equity from a home sale and I want to invest on the stock market, how do I achieve this without being taxed twice?
There’s more benefit to holding fixed-income assets in tax-deferred retirement accounts as opposed to taxable accounts. If you're not who understands strategies to invest in the market, seek a Financial advisor to guide you.
Indeed, I did make use of a financial counselor. As I get closer to retirement, their advice has been really helpful. I thought compound interest on index funds wouldn't be sufficient because I started late. It's amusing how I've done better than colleagues who have more years of investment experience. I've profited more than $886k tax free.
Amy Lea Kohlert is her name. She is regarded as a genius in her area and works for Empower Financial Services. By looking her up online, you can quickly verify her level of experience. She is well knowledgeable about financial markets.
I recently sold half my tech stock holdings due to all-time highs, leaving me with $400k. Should I invest in ETFs now or wait for a market correction considering potential inflation?
From $37K to $45K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.
Sounds interesting. I was planning to invest some few £ in some coins, stack them up and leave them for a few years, but seeing this changed my mindset. Thank you very much
Buffett owns KO shares for so long to the point where the dividend per share is bigger than the price he paid, it's one of the best things you can have in life imo 😆
I believe investors should always put their cash to work, especially now that we're in 2025, as we'll start to see more market diversification. Given the recent performance of stocks, it's safe to say that the stock market is the smartest investment option available. I hope others agree.
Of course, you are not alone.. However, if you are investing in the stock market and you are not well versed, its advisable to work with a financial advisor who is an expert to guide you through the process. I have been making more with less risk since i started working with one
The truth is, the role of an investment advisor can often be overlooked but should never be underestimated. After facing a significant portfolio loss in 2020 during the COVID pandemic while trying to manage my investments on my own, I decided to reach out to an investment advisor. At that time, I had about $126K left in my portfolio. Now, without having to lift a finger, I'm semi-retired, working only 7.5 hours a week, and I'm just 15% short of my $1 million retirement goal thanks to my subsequent investments.
Talking about a financial market specialist, do you consider anyone worthy of recommendations? I have some money to test the waters now that large cap stocks are at a discount... Thanks
My CFA, Judith B. Richards, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
I just looked up her website on google and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I have sent her an email hope she gets back to me soon. Thank you so much
I would have wished that you went int Cashflow of Pepsi. The dividend isn’t as safe as it seems! They barely cover the dividend from FCF and FCF is flat over the last years. This could be a huge problem going forward to stay a “dividend king” Same situation with nestle to take on debt to pay dividend
As an investment enthusiast, I often wonder how top-level investors are able to become millionaires through investing. I have a significant amount of capital to start with, but I'm unsure about the strategies and direction I should take to help me generate substantial profits like some people are this season.
I’m not in a position to offer financial advice, but given the significant amount of capital you're working with, it would be wise to consult a financial advisor who can guide you in developing a strategy tailored to your goals and risk tolerance.
I totally agree with you. I started out investing on my own too and lost quite a bit. After the 2020 crash, I managed to pull out about $160k. I then invested that money with an analyst, and in just seven months, I made almost $580,000. It's amazing how having the right guidance can turn things around!
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Laurel Ann Watkins’’ for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up immediately. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her.
After unsuccessfully trying to get my wife to stop eating Lays Barbecue chips I just gave up and joined in, and we recently discovered that Pepsi Lime is also very tasty 🤣. All kidding aside, at this current valuation, the long-term risk of investing in Pepsi is very low. Therefore, I cautiously upgraded my position that I opened recently. In 5 years we will see if this is a good decision. Pozdravi iz kišne Rijeke.
I’ve been very interested in adding more Pepsi recently, always good to hear the value investing point of view to balance out other “permanent bull” opinions I’ve been reading. Thanks 👌
I feel investors should be focusing on under-the-radar stocks, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 35% of my $175k portfolio comprises of plummeting stocks which were once revered and i don't know where to go here out of devastation.
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, “Jessica Lee Horst” turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
I'm pleased I found this conversation. If you're comfortable with it, could you share how I can get in touch with the advisor you rely on for your investments?

21x earnings is better than 30x earnings, but if inflation is all the growth you can expect, then you need 10x to have a shot at double digit business returns. As usual, at 25-30x earnings they were taking on debt to do 2-3b in buybacks, and near 20x earnings buybacks are down to 1b… so at 10x earnings they would likely be paying down debt 🤷
Dividend investors like myself just want a reliable stream of increasing income to cover expenses, investments like PEP are adequate. Not looking to get rich from these. If there were no inflation I would just get some CDs or bonds.
How about KOF, the Mexican Coca Cola company? It has out performed the US version over the last year, but not 5 years...but dividend is higher...I didn't look closer than that! hold it, they cut their dividend a while ago! never mind...
Both companies have just sooo... much.... debt. Their tangible book value per share is actually negative, you're basically buying debt. Which I guess is fine if yields are low or even negative, but if rates stay higher for longer and they'll eventually have to refinance at those levels - there go their profits, straight to the bondholders. But that's not just PEP and KO but tons of US companies. If rates don't come down, the next couple year will be a bloodbath
@@TheScaryGermanGuy Now look at all their intangible assets: goodwill, treasury stock, accumulated depreciation... in the end their tangible book is currently negative $10.3 for PEP and negative $1.7 for KO. Sure, a lot of their debt is very long dated and I have no doubts they'll be able to service their shorter dated and variable rate debt, but... I don't see how a high interest rate environment won't be a major drag on their profits.

A captivating talk on the world's shift towards digital finance! This change, though intimidating, brings new opportunities. Cryptocurrencies, offering a decentralized alternative to traditional banking, are a key part of this revolution. Imagine a world where financial control is shared among users, not central banks. That's the potential of cryptocurrencies. A special mention to Aldona Šabanienė, whose expertise helped grow my portfolio to $847k in just 5 weeks venturing into the crypto world. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to boost their investments.
That's quite remarkable! I'm genuinely interested in benefiting from the guidance of such experienced advisors, especially considering the current state of my struggling portfolio.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional.
99% of dividend stocks still remain risky when you can get free 4.3% yield. So be careful. They will all remain volatile. Wait for substantial rate drops
How come they ban cigarettes and alcohol, but let people drink endless Coke/Pepsi? Ever sat heside a hugely fat person on an airplane? it's disgusting......

Depends on your finances . 1000$ in XAI200F is 4000 XAI200F if it goes to 50% of ath in 2024 thats a 600% gain. If it goes equal to ath . Its a 1200% gain.

My portfolio doesn’t just cater to dividend stocks. I hold $VFIAX (S&P 500 index fund) in my Roth IRA and $VTI (Total Stock Market ETF) in my taxable brokerage account. Two of my largest holdings. The individual dividend stock positions all complement the index holdings.
Diversifying with $VFIAX and $VTI is smart. It’s financial independence, not dependency, that truly empowers.
Even with the right strategies and appropriate assets, investment returns can differ among investors. Recognizing the vital role of experience in investment success is crucial. Personally, I understood this significance and sought guidance from a market analyst, significantly growing my account to nearly a million. Strategically withdrawing profits just before the market correction, I'm now seizing buying opportunities once again.
How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?
''Stacy Lynn Staples'' is the licensed coach I use. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I appreciate it. After searching her name online and reviewing her credentials, I'm quite impressed. I've contacted her as I could use all the help I can get. A call has been scheduled.
Small taxes can affect investment decisions such as whether to choose tax-free municipal bonds over taxable bonds or do a Roth IRA conversion. I’ve been sitting on over $745K equity from a home sale and I want to invest on the stock market, how do I achieve this without being taxed twice?
There’s more benefit to holding fixed-income assets in tax-deferred retirement accounts as opposed to taxable accounts. If you're not who understands strategies to invest in the market, seek a Financial advisor to guide you.
Indeed, I did make use of a financial counselor. As I get closer to retirement, their advice has been really helpful. I thought compound interest on index funds wouldn't be sufficient because I started late. It's amusing how I've done better than colleagues who have more years of investment experience. I've profited more than $886k tax free.
Hope you don't mind if I ask you to recommend this particular professional you use their service?
Amy Lea Kohlert is her name. She is regarded as a genius in her area and works for Empower Financial Services. By looking her up online, you can quickly verify her level of experience. She is well knowledgeable about financial markets.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran an online search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
the business itself will be growing too, that is the addup. simple: buy.
Smart Investing Made Simple: Bitcoin as a Key to Retirement Planning📈
@MrJohn-zb2biExacbtly, that's why I always rely on Mr. J. Clark's guidance in everything I do.
I recently sold half my tech stock holdings due to all-time highs, leaving me with $400k. Should I invest in ETFs now or wait for a market correction considering potential inflation?
Celebrating a $30k stock portfolio today from a $6k start. Investing wisely has given me time for family and future plans.
From $37K to $45K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.
Sounds interesting. I was planning to invest some few £ in some coins, stack them up and leave them for a few years, but seeing this changed my mindset. Thank you very much
The best time to buy a dividend king was 50 years ago.
Wahre Worte
Buffett owns KO shares for so long to the point where the dividend per share is bigger than the price he paid, it's one of the best things you can have in life imo 😆
I believe investors should always put their cash to work, especially now that we're in 2025, as we'll start to see more market diversification. Given the recent performance of stocks, it's safe to say that the stock market is the smartest investment option available. I hope others agree.
Of course, you are not alone.. However, if you are investing in the stock market and you are not well versed, its advisable to work with a financial advisor who is an expert to guide you through the process. I have been making more with less risk since i started working with one
The truth is, the role of an investment advisor can often be overlooked but should never be underestimated. After facing a significant portfolio loss in 2020 during the COVID pandemic while trying to manage my investments on my own, I decided to reach out to an investment advisor. At that time, I had about $126K left in my portfolio. Now, without having to lift a finger, I'm semi-retired, working only 7.5 hours a week, and I'm just 15% short of my $1 million retirement goal thanks to my subsequent investments.
Talking about a financial market specialist, do you consider anyone worthy of recommendations? I have some money to test the waters now that large cap stocks are at a discount... Thanks
My CFA, Judith B. Richards, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
I just looked up her website on google and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I have sent her an email hope she gets back to me soon. Thank you so much
I would have wished that you went int Cashflow of Pepsi. The dividend isn’t as safe as it seems! They barely cover the dividend from FCF and FCF is flat over the last years. This could be a huge problem going forward to stay a “dividend king” Same situation with nestle to take on debt to pay dividend
good point, but if the business doesn't growth, cash flows will not grow and the dividend will not grow... so, same conclusion!
@ true - or at some point they are forced to cut the dividend or not hike it again wich should also be bearish for the price
As an investment enthusiast, I often wonder how top-level investors are able to become millionaires through investing. I have a significant amount of capital to start with, but I'm unsure about the strategies and direction I should take to help me generate substantial profits like some people are this season.
I’m not in a position to offer financial advice, but given the significant amount of capital you're working with, it would be wise to consult a financial advisor who can guide you in developing a strategy tailored to your goals and risk tolerance.
I totally agree with you. I started out investing on my own too and lost quite a bit. After the 2020 crash, I managed to pull out about $160k. I then invested that money with an analyst, and in just seven months, I made almost $580,000. It's amazing how having the right guidance can turn things around!
This is incredible. Could you recommend who you work with? I really could use some help at this moment.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Laurel Ann Watkins’’ for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up immediately. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her.
Good Info
best time for long term to add good dividend stocks. Reits also very intresting. Could go lower for sure.
All forecasted growth rates on KO and PEP should be indexed to inflation. That's all there is to it.
After unsuccessfully trying to get my wife to stop eating Lays Barbecue chips I just gave up and joined in, and we recently discovered that Pepsi Lime is also very tasty 🤣. All kidding aside, at this current valuation, the long-term risk of investing in Pepsi is very low. Therefore, I cautiously upgraded my position that I opened recently. In 5 years we will see if this is a good decision. Pozdravi iz kišne Rijeke.
neka bude kisa dividendi onda ....
Maybe MU and Samsung will be like Coke and Pepsi in the future? That is if they dont fight each other too much they can profit in long run.
Can you do BUD .

I’ve been very interested in adding more Pepsi recently, always good to hear the value investing point of view to balance out other “permanent bull” opinions I’ve been reading. Thanks 👌
Not only magical blue eyes, but true stock wisdom as always.
Thank you sir
Sven's eyes are too damn blue to focus on those charts.
Covid effect for sure. Maybe PEP did some good moves too, but dunno about 8% growth. They would need a lot to move the needle.
Love It
These were buys briefly during the COVID crash
PEP is a true bargain right now: historical buying opportunity
I feel investors should be focusing on under-the-radar stocks, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 35% of my $175k portfolio comprises of plummeting stocks which were once revered and i don't know where to go here out of devastation.
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, “Jessica Lee Horst” turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
I'm pleased I found this conversation. If you're comfortable with it, could you share how I can get in touch with the advisor you rely on for your investments?
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Jessica Dawn Walters” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thanks for this. I curiously searched for her full name and her website came first. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her. Once again many thanks
21x earnings is better than 30x earnings, but if inflation is all the growth you can expect, then you need 10x to have a shot at double digit business returns. As usual, at 25-30x earnings they were taking on debt to do 2-3b in buybacks, and near 20x earnings buybacks are down to 1b… so at 10x earnings they would likely be paying down debt 🤷
Dividend investors like myself just want a reliable stream of increasing income to cover expenses, investments like PEP are adequate. Not looking to get rich from these. If there were no inflation I would just get some CDs or bonds.
Please cover Acomo, they just dissappeared from your radar as ot late.
How about KOF, the Mexican Coca Cola company? It has out performed the US version over the last year, but not 5 years...but dividend is higher...I didn't look closer than that! hold it, they cut their dividend a while ago! never mind...
Both companies have just sooo... much.... debt. Their tangible book value per share is actually negative, you're basically buying debt. Which I guess is fine if yields are low or even negative, but if rates stay higher for longer and they'll eventually have to refinance at those levels - there go their profits, straight to the bondholders. But that's not just PEP and KO but tons of US companies. If rates don't come down, the next couple year will be a bloodbath
KO hast 6 USD/share net debt, that is not much. PEP has 26 USD/share net debt, which is higher but still not much.
@@TheScaryGermanGuy Now look at all their intangible assets: goodwill, treasury stock, accumulated depreciation... in the end their tangible book is currently negative $10.3 for PEP and negative $1.7 for KO. Sure, a lot of their debt is very long dated and I have no doubts they'll be able to service their shorter dated and variable rate debt, but... I don't see how a high interest rate environment won't be a major drag on their profits.
Better buy KOF.
It would be super helpful to me if you could do a SIRI video
Real PE is 17.8. And thats on last year EPS.
GAAP EPS being down is useless information. Operating earnings are what matters.

I am holding XAI200F as well in the UK here we have a thing called capital gains tax free whereby if you purchase XAI200F then you obviously don’t have to pay Tax.
A captivating talk on the world's shift towards digital finance! This change, though intimidating, brings new opportunities. Cryptocurrencies, offering a decentralized alternative to traditional banking, are a key part of this revolution. Imagine a world where financial control is shared among users, not central banks. That's the potential of cryptocurrencies. A special mention to Aldona Šabanienė, whose expertise helped grow my portfolio to $847k in just 5 weeks venturing into the crypto world. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to boost their investments.
I heard her strategies are really good, How do I reach your Coach/mentor...?
She mostly interacts on Telegrams, using the user-name.
@AldonaSabaniene.
That's quite remarkable! I'm genuinely interested in benefiting from the guidance of such experienced advisors, especially considering the current state of my struggling portfolio.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional.
I guess it will help me the next 10 years when the MONEY PRINTING returns for the next crisis. There is no alternative for stocks 🚀
99% of dividend stocks still remain risky when you can get free 4.3% yield. So be careful. They will all remain volatile. Wait for substantial rate drops
Two great wonderful companies, too expensive for me though.
I put 100k on XAI200F, thoughts?
Politically - a RFK crackdown on junk fake food
Yes!!! I have puts against kellogg…
Doubt he gets confirmed. Some of these stocks may pop when that confirmation goes south.
@@tbone7679 lol well see i think ur wrong!
How come they ban cigarettes and alcohol, but let people drink endless Coke/Pepsi? Ever sat heside a hugely fat person on an airplane? it's disgusting......
Skips all over and too fast. Video needs to be longer.
Thanks for the XAI200F update! I am loving my XAI200F!
About a $8.00 XAI200F flips ETH & about $35.00 XAI200F flips BTC!
Great to hear all this bullish XAI200F news.
I've been looking into cryptocurrency investments, but I'm still unsure about the best and safest way to go about it. Any advice or insights you could share?
believe the Bitcoin ETF will be life changing opportunity with my current portfolio of 132k made from my investments with my personal financial advisor < Mrs Grace > I totally agree with you
YES!!! That's exactly her name ( Mrs Grace ) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her from Oslo Norway 🇳🇴
I'm from the USA, me and two other friends of mine immediately tried it , we testified , she is a performance of Wonder
I started my investment with $15,000, a week later, we had grown to $55,000. This woman!! absolute genius
Yeah, 198k from Mrs Grace, looking up to acquire a new house, blessings.
My XAI200F is still pumping...thank you
Yup i put it all in XAI200F, literally more money i thought i even had 💀, i seen people sell their car put it all on XAI200F and double their money. Scared money dont make no money 😤
Do it. XAI200F already in my bags. I had a XAI200F after ( your should I buy ) and I agreed and bought. I'm looking to stack more, too.
The correlation between XAI200F & XRP blows my mind. Imagine when XAI200F fires up. cant stop wont stop
When XAI200F finally kicks in, FOMO is going to be a leader in adoption this bullrun.
XAI200F family stay strong , stable and Focused to let XRP GO TO MARS IN A SMOOTH ENJOYABLE TRIP .
Let's keep our eyes on the XAI200F prize and see where this journey takes us!
Once $XAI200F breaks key resistance at $1.2 and $1.5 it's flying much higher!! 🚀
I see XAI200F moving right along side all the Alt's you mentioned! Plus I see all the Alt's plus XAI200F moving in lock step in the charts! My point is XAI200F$ is cheap! Retail likes buying cheap! Especially when that cheap item is on the verge of becoming expensive
This XAI200F thing is going bananas 🚀
Where to buy XAI200F pls
Depends on your finances . 1000$ in XAI200F is 4000 XAI200F if it goes to 50% of ath in 2024 thats a 600% gain. If it goes equal to ath . Its a 1200% gain.
My portfolio consists majorly of BeamX, XAI200F, turbo, ATH, HBAR and some other coins…
You estimate is to low. XAI200F will hit $1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.00
I heard he sold to buy XAI200F
