The market winds back in the positive after having hit earlier this year, but it looks like a provisional increase. Investors want to be confident, but there is currently a lot of economic uncertainty and the S&P 500 reflects that, an increase of only 3%.
But there are many companies that show extraordinary resilience under pressure, and their stock prices reflect that too. Coca-Cola(NYSE: KO)” Dutch brittle(NYSE: Bros)And Mercadolibre(Nasdaq: Meli) Are all rising this year and I think they are still all shares to buy without hesitation.

Coca-Cola shares have risen by 14% this year and beats the market with its safety, value and dividend. Investors know that when there is economic volatility, Coca-Cola will probably remain the course and will remain stable. It has an excellent business sale of drinks that his customers love, and because they are not luxurious products, they will continue to buy under pressure. It has a strong price force and has been able to increase prices to compensate for an increase in costs. It also takes many other actions to generate involvement and to increase sales.
The leading business and worldwide brand name are functions that are appreciated by investing Legend Warren Buffett, and Coca-Cola is his longest part. The current circumstances give investors a deeper insight into why Buffett is so fond of it. It also gets an extra boost because it is well protected against the negative impact of rates, because the majority of its production is locally.
Coca-Cola is a dividend king and it has successfully increased its dividend over the past 63 years. It is as reliable as dividend shares come, and there are few shares that have a better track record. It also has an attractive yield, which is 2.9% at the current price.
Coca-Cola shares is not an eternal market beater, but it is an excellent choice for a value share that reliably pays passive income, and if you want to fill that lock in your portfolio, Coca-Cola is a great candidate.
Dutch Bros is a relatively young coffee shop chain that is in fast -growing mode. It recently surpassed 1,000 stores, about double of its first public offer (IPO) four years ago, and it is planning to double again by 2020. In the longer term it sees the possibility to open 7,000 stores throughout the country. It recently raised those 4,000 prospects, and as it successfully expands, it could increase that again.
The company uses a model that fits the current coffee consumer. Most of his stores are exclusive Drive-Thru, but because the new opens at a rapid pace, it has been compiled its real estate to meet the demand at any location. It offers a menu with drinks for a lower price than part of its competition, which is important in the current environment, and it is experimenting with its food menu to stimulate sales. It has only recently rolled out a mobile membership program and it already sees strong results.
Dutch Bros shares have risen by 32% this year, because it continues to report high growth and increases the profit. Turnover increased by 29% year after year in the first quarter of 2025, with an increase in sales of 4.7%, while the net result rose from $ 16.2 million to $ 22.5 million.
I don't think Dutch Bros is a share for the most risk -avoiding investors, but if you have a appetite for risk and a long timeline, this can be a great addition to your portfolio.
