QRFT · Weight increase · 2d
Trading at its 52-week high of $84.14, following a 3.2% 30-day and 22.2% 1-year return, Coca-Cola’s price trajectory aligns with the momentum factor Qraft AI considers for its QRFT portfolio. The fund, which rebalances weekly incorporating traditional factors like quality, likely recognized the company’s 43.62% return on equity and consistent revenue growth of 5.11%. This confluence of factors, potentially augmented by Qraft’s proprietary alternative-data overlays, prompted a consecutive weight increase in KO, moving from 0.75% to 0.78% between July 1st and 2nd. Even as the stock reaches new highs, QRFT, as a diversified large-cap core fund, adjusted its allocation, reflecting the AI's current assessment of the company’s position within its universe of around 300 US large caps.

QRFT · Weight decrease · 2d
The Qraft AI, which manages QRFT by combining traditional factors with proprietary alternative-data overlays for its ~300 US large-cap portfolio, systematically reduced its exposure to Coca-Cola through consecutive weekly rebalances. This AI-driven decision is reflected in the weight decrease from 0.77% on June 26 to 0.74% by June 30, suggesting a re-evaluation of KO's attractiveness within the fund's broad large-cap core style. At a price of $81.27, which is 97% of its 52-week high, the AI’s multi-factor models likely found the stock’s current valuation, such as its PER of 25.51, less compelling relative to other potential holdings or a decrease in its momentum signal. This measured adjustment indicates the AI is actively recalibrating its holdings based on its blended factor inputs and alternative data streams.

QRFT · Weight decrease · 3d
Trading near its 52-week high at $80.91, following a 3.5% gain over the last 30 days, Coca-Cola Co. has experienced a consecutive weight decrease within Qraft's AI-managed QRFT fund. The ETF’s AI, which combines traditional factors like value and quality with proprietary alternative data, likely detected that while KO reports a 43.62% ROE, its valuation metrics, including a 26.18 PER and 9.35 PBR, may offer diminishing returns as the stock reaches 97% of its 52-week high. This systematic reduction in exposure, facilitated by the broad large-cap core fund's weekly rebalancing, suggests the AI is adjusting its allocation based on the company's 5.11% revenue growth relative to its elevated price level. The AI's tilt thus appears to be dialing back concentration on KO, moving from 0.80% to 0.74% of the portfolio as the stock approaches the upper bound of its 52-week range.

QRFT · Weight decrease · 2d
KO is trading at $82.62, nearing its 52-week high of $83.59, following a 30-day return of +5.1%. This positions the stock at an elevated level, likely triggering a re-evaluation within QRFT’s AI system, which combines traditional factors like value and low-volatility with proprietary alternative-data overlays. With a PER of 26.18 and a PBR of 9.35, these valuation metrics may indicate reduced attractiveness given its price point, even with a 43.62% ROE and 5.11% revenue growth. Consequently, Qraft’s AI initiated a consecutive weight decrease for Coca-Cola, moving from 0.8000% on June 10th to 0.7700% on June 11th, and further to 0.7600% by June 12th. This weekly rebalance reflects the AI’s dynamic adjustment for this broad large-cap core fund, responding to KO's current market price and factor scores.

QRFT · Weight increase · 2d
QRFT, utilizing its Qraft AI combining traditional factors with proprietary alternative-data overlays across its broad large-cap portfolio of approximately 300 US stocks, progressively increased its weight in Coca-Cola. The observed consecutive weight increases from 0.74% to 0.80% during recent weekly rebalances indicate the AI is detecting a sustained positive signal for KO. Even as KO’s current price of $83.59 places it at 100% of its 52-week high, the AI’s model likely emphasizes fundamentals such as the 43.62% Return on Equity. This action suggests the algorithm, within its diversified large-cap core style, values the company's underlying efficiency and perceived stability, possibly highlighted by its alternative data, overriding concerns about price proximity to recent peaks.

QRFT · Weight decrease · 3d
With a PER of 24.79 and PBR of 9.35, KO carries a high valuation relative to its moderate 5.11% revenue growth, although its 43.62% ROE indicates strong profitability. The Qraft AI, which manages QRFT by combining traditional factors like value and quality with proprietary alternative data, assesses such metrics within its broad large-cap core mandate. Trading at $78.64, 96% of its 52-week high, after a 9.4% 90-day return, the stock's price has reached an elevated level. This confluence of high valuation, moderate growth, and sustained price appreciation likely prompted QRFT's weekly rebalancing mechanism to initiate the consecutive weight decrease observed from May 29th to June 1st for this Consumer Staples company. The Qraft AI's assessment, factoring in its unique data overlays, appears to have identified a diminishing relative attractiveness for KO at its current price.

QRFT · Weight decrease · 2d
QRFT's AI, which dynamically combines traditional factors and proprietary alternative data, appears to be systematically de-emphasizing Coca-Cola across its weekly rebalances. This divestment began as KO approached its 52-week high, currently trading at $79.01, representing 96% of that range. The fund's AI, considering its incorporation of traditional factors such as value, may perceive the stock's PER of 24.7 as elevated for a consumer staples company at this price level. Consequently, the system initiated a pattern of consecutive weight decreases, like the drop from 0.7500% to 0.7000% in late May, suggesting its complex algorithms are identifying diminishing relative attractiveness within its approximately 300 US large cap holdings.

The consecutive, minor weight increases for Coca-Cola from May 15th to 19th, ranging from 0.73% to 0.75%, signal Qraft AI's current assessment. The fund's methodology likely registered KO's sustained price momentum, with a +6.0% return over 30 days and the stock now at its 52-week high of $81.92, alongside its quality attributes such as a 43.62% ROE and 5.11% revenue growth. This blend of traditional factors and proprietary alternative-data overlays, central to QRFT's broad large-cap core style, is driving these specific, incremental adjustments during its weekly rebalancing. The AI's persistent allocation increase indicates a continued positive outlook for this Consumer Staples company, even at its current valuation with a PER of 25.84.

The ETF’s weight in KO has shifted with a distinct, incremental cadence, rising consecutively from 0.71% to 0.74% in recent trading days. This measured accumulation, despite the stock nearing its 52-week high of $81.56, aligns with QRFT’s AI strategy that integrates traditional factors like quality and momentum with proprietary alternative data. Coca-Cola’s high ROE of 43.62% and consistent revenue growth of 5.11% likely affirm its quality attribute, while its recent 90-day return of +17.1% indicates positive momentum. Qraft’s AI, with its weekly rebalancing capability and broad large-cap core style, appears to interpret these signals, potentially augmented by its alternative data overlays, as justification to increase exposure to the consumer staples giant even at its current valuation.

PQUS · Weight decrease · 2d
Coca-Cola's P/E of 26.12 and P/B of 9.35, despite a 43.62% return on equity and 5.11% revenue growth, presented a valuation challenge to PQUS's AI ranking system for US large-caps. This high valuation context was further emphasized as KO reached $84.92, marking 100% of its 52-week range after gaining 7.8% in the prior 30 days. Operating within its measured turnover style, the Pictet-managed fund's AI likely adjusted KO's rank due to the confluence of its current valuation and the price momentum, leading to a consecutive weight decrease from 0.4900% to 0.4000% across July 16th and 17th, 2026. This adjustment aligns with the fund's sector-balance and concentration rules, indicating a re-evaluation of KO's attractiveness relative to other holdings in its ~165 US large-cap portfolio at that elevated price point.

KO’s PER of 26.12 and PBR of 9.35, coupled with a 43.62% return on equity and 5.11% revenue growth, likely prompted the Pictet AI ranking system to assess the stock's positioning within its US large-cap universe. Trading at $83.49, near 99% of its $84.14 52-week high, following 30-day returns of +3.8%, presented a valuation point for the AI's periodic rebalance. This likely led the system, operating under its concentration and sector-balance rules, to initiate the consecutive weight decreases from 0.6300% to 0.5000% on July 10th and further to 0.4900% on July 11th, reflecting a measured adjustment as the fund's style suggests.

PQUS · Weight decrease · 2d
The weight of Coca-Cola Co in PQUS reflects a measured downward adjustment, shifting from 0.68% to 0.61% over a week-long period, punctuated by several days of stable weighting before further reductions. This pattern aligns with PQUS's described style of periodic rebalancing and measured turnover, where its AI ranking system likely identified KO’s current valuation at 97% of its 52-week high as a less compelling opportunity. Considering KO's PER of 25.74 and PBR of 9.35, which are elevated for a consumer staples company with 5.11% revenue growth, the AI system may be adjusting exposure. This adjustment could also be influenced by the fund’s layered sector-balance rules. The fund is methodically reducing its position in this stock from a recent peak, a move consistent with an AI aiming for optimized value within its US large-cap universe without daily, reactive trading.

Coca-Cola shares are currently priced at $79.01, near 96% of their 52-week high of $81.92, following a 4.3% return over the past 30 days and 9.7% over the last year. This elevated valuation, with a PER of 24.81 and PBR of 9.35, likely influenced Pictet Asset Management's AI ranking system within PQUS, despite KO's 43.62% ROE and 5.11% revenue growth. The AI, which manages a US large-cap portfolio with periodic rebalances and sector-balance rules, initiated a series of weight decreases for KO, lowering its allocation to 0.64% by May 31. This specific move indicates the system dynamically adjusted KO's position at its current price, perceiving a lessened relative attractiveness for the Consumer Staples stock within its selection framework.

KO is currently trading at $80.82, residing at 99% of its 52-week high, following a substantial 90-day return of +19.7%. The consecutive weight increases in PQUS, observed from May 13th to May 17th, moving KO's allocation from 0.63% to 0.67%, indicate a deliberate adjustment by Pictet Asset Management's AI ranking system during a periodic rebalance window. Despite the stock's elevated price, the AI's methodology, which evaluates a US large-cap universe for its ~165 holdings, likely identified KO's 5.11% revenue growth and 43.62% return on equity as key factors supporting an increased position. This incremental scaling aligns with PQUS's design as a newer fund employing a measured turnover strategy, where fundamental shifts in a company like KO warrant a higher allocation within the AI's sector-balanced framework. The AI's ranking system appears to value these financial characteristics, even at a PER of 25.38, for this Consumer Staples giant.

The AI ETF is likely reducing its weight in Coca-Cola due to concerns over its elevated valuation metrics, specifically its high PER of 24.63 and PBR of 9.35, which may be perceived as unsustainable relative to its 5.11% revenue growth within the mature consumer staples sector. This consecutive decrease suggests the AI is reallocating capital towards opportunities it deems offer better risk-adjusted returns. For retail investors, this highlights the critical lesson that even high-quality, defensive companies like KO require careful valuation assessment, as an overvalued stock, regardless of brand strength, can prompt smart money to seek more attractive alternatives.

Coca-Cola's representation within LQAI's portfolio maintained a stable, minor allocation around 0.10-0.11% for approximately two weeks before a sudden, full divestment on July 7th. This stepped removal, executed within the ETF’s weekly rebalancing cycle, indicates a decisive action by the Qraft AI selection engine, likely triggered as KO reached $84.05, precisely at its 52-week high. Considering the fund's core large-cap, AI-driven style, reaching the upper bound of its historical trading range, coupled with its PER of 25.74 and PBR of 9.35, may have signaled to the AI that its near-term appreciation potential was constrained. Even with a 43.62% ROE and 5.11% revenue growth, the AI's model, designed for name selection without heavy factor tilt, likely determined that the elevated valuation at this price point made KO a less compelling allocation within its ~100 US large-cap holdings, prompting its swift exit.

Buffett-style framework
AI ETFs present mixed signals for Coca-Cola, with QRFT accumulating and AIEQ making a new entry, while PQUS shows a recent weight decrease trend. This activity contrasts with a Buffett-style framework verdict, which deems the company a 'Fail' due to its current valuation offering no margin of safety.
- Circle of CompetenceCoca-Cola's global beverage business has highly predictable unit economics and consistent consumer demand, allowing for reasonable projection of ten-year cash flows.
- Economic MoatCoca-Cola possesses an unbreachable economic moat derived from its powerful global brand recognition and vast, entrenched distribution network, which ensures enduring competitive advantage.
- ManagementThe provided data does not offer sufficient information to assess management's candor, capital allocation discipline, or skin in the game.
- Financial HealthWhile the current ROE is very strong, comprehensive data on 10-year average ROE, operating margin trends, debt levels, and owner earnings are not provided to fully assess financial health.
- Margin of SafetyThe current valuation multiples (PER 24.81, PBR 9.35, EV/EBITDA 29.71) suggest the market fully appreciates Coca-Cola's quality, leaving no discernible margin of safety for a conservative investor.
Coca-Cola demonstrates strong business fundamentals, passing the 'circle of competence' and 'economic moat' stages due to its predictable operations and powerful brand. However, without sufficient data to assess management or full financial health, and crucially, failing the 'margin of safety' criterion due to its high valuation, the company receives an overall 'Fail' verdict.
