It's been a rough stretch for energy-drink darling Celsius Holdings (NASDAQ: CELH) , whose stock has fallen roughly 36% so far in 2026 and now trades well below where it started the year.
That kind of drop tends to split investors into two camps: those who see a broken story and those who see a sale.
So here's a matchup worth thinking through for the back half of the year: Do you scoop up the beaten-down growth name, or split the same dollars evenly between two beverage giants, The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO) and PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP) ?
