I may get my buy order filled today at $32. Wendy's International has signed an agreement with Coca-Cola to be its exclusive soft drink supplier over the next 10 years. Wendy's will force its franchisees that use Pepsi to switch to Coca-Cola. Currently about 15% of Wendy's stores serve Pepsi. Pepsi says that they will make a counter offer to Wendy's. This will cost them quite a bit of money. KO will contribute about $133 million to Wendy's advertising campaign.

This is negative news for PEP because they have been trying to expand their fountain business. However, I still think that the stock is good value around $32.

The news is good for WEN because PEP may offer them more money than KO.
