According to a recent Trends Journal report, organic revenue for Coca-Cola this second quarter was 37% higher than the same period last year, which was also higher than 2019’s revenue sales. The international megacorporation’s profits grew another 49% year-on-year to $2.6 billion, the company posted.
Measured by the number of eight-ounce cans and drinks sold by 24packs, 17% of sales volume increased in North America, 16% in Asia, 21% across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, and 12% in Latin America.
The rise in sales can be attributed to the reopening of bars, restaurants, movie theaters, sport stadiums, concert halls and venues, fairs, and many other locations, says the Trends Journal.
Coke is now forecasting 12-14% total revenue gain earnings per share will climb 13-15%.
We remain very clear-eyed about the potential [of future market disruptions,] but overall we see a clearer path [back to business as normal].
CEO James Quincey told the Wall Street Journal
The Trends Journal has previously reported that PepsiCo has also changed their forecasts based on a rise in sales.
In a separate but relatable report, the Trends Journal also recently reported that life expectancy has fallen once more, as reported by some in the mainstream media, the CDC, and other medical journals.
Life expectancy in the United States has been shortened an additional 1.5 years, falling to an average of 77.3 years, which is the same rate as reported in 2003.
Increases in other leading causes, especially heart disease, Alzheimer disease, and diabetes, may also reflect disruptions in health care that hampered early detection and disease management. Increases in unintentional injury deaths in 2020 were largely driven by drug overdose deaths. Final mortality data will help determine the effect of the pandemic on concurrent trends in drug overdose deaths.
The JAMA Network said
Just as The WinePress has noted as well, the Trends Journal has long reported on the rise alcohol and drug abuse since 2020, as not to forget a massive increase in junk food eating and binge eating from people being locked into their homes.

In March the Journal cited evidence that in men, there is a notable decline in overall sperm count and masculinity is falling dramatically.
The Trends Journal gives their commentary on the rise of soda pop sales:
TRENDPOST: That was last week. As the COVID War 2.0 is ramped up and more mandates are being imposed, business will not come back to normal.
We note this article, however, to illustrate the health decline of civilization and how, since the COVID War was launched in the winter of 2020, not a peep from politicians, so-called health officials and Presstitutes about building one’s immune system and eating healthy.
Indeed, cola sales accurately depict the state-of-the-nation.
For example, to illustrate how low the U.S. education system has sunk, despite the clear, documented health risks of regular soda drinking, it is estimated 80 percent of public schools in America have a contract with Coke or Pepsi for “pouring rights,” including in-school vending machines.
As reported in the nutrition newsletter HealthLine last January:
“Consider the ingredients in that 20-ounce bottle of cola: Carbonated water, natural and artificial flavors, a little caffeine, and about 17 teaspoons of sugar, which together add up to 250 calories. All of those empty calories put schools in a dilemma: They may not have wanted to give their students a sugar fix, but they didn’t want to walk away from piles of cash either.”
TRENDPOST: While Americans are masked up and socially distanced in fear, afraid of dying from COVID, they self-destruct, killing themselves by eating crap and blowing up.
On 18 August 2018, the Secretaries of Agriculture wrote in The Hill, “Diet-related disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, surpassing tobacco, drug, and alcohol usage. More than 1,000 deaths every day are due to poor diets.”
This means so far in 2020, about 221,000 Americans will have died from poor diets compared to 165,600 who allegedly died from COVID-19.
Jobless Claims And Less Opportunity
The Labor Department released the weekly jobless claims this morning for the week ending July 24th. Claims fell to 400,000 from the 419,000 from last week.
As of July 2nd, ShadowStats still maintains that there is 25.8% unemployment in the United States, roughly 5 times higher than what the government and media reports.
Though jobless claims have fallen for the previous week, surveys still find that future generations will be poorer than their parents.
The following is from the Trends Journal:
64% of adults across 17 countries believe their children will live in worse financial condition than their parents, a new Pew Research Center poll has found.
In the U.S., the proportion was 68%; in France and Japan, the belief is held by 77% of people responding to the poll.
Baby Boomers largely had begun careers and bought homes before 2006’s Great Recession struck.
In contrast, before Millennials and younger adults could firmly establish careers and households, they encountered economic turmoil following the September 11 terror attacks, swiftly followed by the Great Recession, and now 2020’s economic collapse, the worst in 90 years.
Of the 17 countries surveyed, adults in only Singapore and Sweden believe their children will do better financially than their parents.
Women were more likely than men to see the present economy as bad, but there was no difference in views based on age, education, or ideological leanings.
TRENDPOST: Never a word from the Presstitute herd of the serious damage inflicted upon the public by the launching of the War on Terror and the COVID Wars that have destroyed hundreds of millions of lives and livelihoods. Moreover, absent in the report is how the Bigs, from hi-tech to heavy industry, have monopolized virtually every sector of the economy and destroyed what once was small enterprise and family businesses.
Back in the Baby Boom era of America, the polls always showed that the future would be better than the past. Now the opposite is true. In fact, a TV Reality Show Champion by the name of Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election promoting his MAGA campaign to “Make America Great Again.”
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
2 Timothy 3:13
Instead of trying to better one’s health, especially after being good little obedient sheep, the masses continue to ruin their health into oblivion. Especially with mainstream propaganda floating the idea of lockdowns again: the masses will get even heftier, drunker, and more tripped out on their drugs.
I do not believe these inevitable lockdowns will happen everywhere, but will be more prevalent in more liberal-leaning city and states. But I think as sales slowdown again for a bit as more and more of the sheeple are scared to go out, especially being programmed into thinking all those “anti-vaxxers” have caused the vaccines to fail. Regardless, I would advise to perhaps stock up on a few extra items before the hoards start storming the stores and toilet paper is gone, again…
My advice is to assume that lockdowns are coming back in your area. And if you cannot afford all the food costs and such, I seriously recommend fasting. Not only will it strengthen you spiritually if you are born again, but it is very healthy for you to do.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Poison pop, the fastest way to get fatter and sicker. Diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and cancer will skyrocket to Pluto as well as doughnuts, ice cream, refined carbs, deep fried anything, fast food, processed foods I’m guessing fake meats are included, and sugar galore. I hardly if ever touch the stuff, it’s a struggle but working towards no more of it.
