Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money CNBC
PepsiCo offers a high yield and value.
PepsiCo is an attractive idea to monitor because the stock hasn't moved much, offers a 4% dividend yield, and stands to benefit from cheaper oil prices which have previously held back their convenience store sales.

Buy negative beta stocks for diversification.
Negative beta stocks such as McDonald's and PepsiCo are attractive because they correlate inversely to the S&P, can provide index-like returns, and diversify portfolios where everything looks like the AI trade; index hedges have often lost money and been abandoned.

Derek Lewis Former PepsiCo Beverages North America Multicultural Busine… Bloomberg Markets
PepsiCo's portfolio breadth cushions shifting consumers.
PepsiCo is better positioned than many large consumer companies because its broad portfolio of categories lets it follow consumers as they shift into health-oriented or functional categories. However, Lewis warns that if PepsiCo or similar companies move too far out of the value zone in highly elastic beverage/snack categories, they will feel volume and financial pressure, so staying close to consumer value is essential to reaping long-term benefits.

PEP trades at 18.5 PE, yields ~4.12%, sits ~20% below highs, and is ~30% cheaper than KO with estimated 20-25% upside. Attractive dividend yield and relative valuation could draw income and value investors, supporting a price recovery. Long PEP as a value/dividend play if South America and revenue headwinds do not materially worsen. South America revenue weakness, other operational issues, potential dividend pressure, and broader consumer slowdown.

Consumer staples are undervalued and loved.
Consumer staple stocks have been thrown out, are now dirt cheap with generous dividend yields, and are seeing business stabilization. Kraft Heinz, with a new CEO and only one analyst buy rating, is a contrarian play. PepsiCo's international business is growing despite US consumer challenges. The sector offers attractive value and income as investors seek defensive areas.

PepsiCo needs price cuts, stock overvalued.
PepsiCo's domestic snack sales are under pressure because rising gasoline prices are forcing lower-income consumers to cut back on $6 bags of chips. Walmart and other distributors are demanding price rollbacks. The only way to reverse the slide is drastic price cuts, but the company is reluctant. Until then, the stock is too high and faces a slow erosion of pricing.
