KO's growth rate is supposedly sustainable because they have a decade at least before saturating world markets with their caramel-colored, enamel-etching-dentist-enriching, corn-syrup-laden concoctions, while semi equips sell capital goods which (in more typical industries) might not be bought for years when overcapacity has been built up.

I disagree, of course, since the semi industry is on a high-growth path and the machines depreciate so quickly.

and has not started to outperform the SP500 until the late '80s.
Here's a chart starting in the '70s.
It's time for Coke to go flat again. <G>
