We don't expect China's beverage market to reaccelerate to the levels it once enjoyed. Although the country's consumption of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages will likely continue to rise at a healthy clip, offering outsize gains versus other, more-developed nations, we expect slowing gross domestic product growth, worsening demographics, and embedded cultural practices to cause much more muted gains over the next five years than many investors hope.We anticipate soft-drink and beer volume growth to trail GDP gains. That said, we see pockets of opportunity for manufacturers as further premiumization leads to improving price points, profitability, and returns on capital. In particular, we think investors should keep international beverage behemoths #<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/979" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:979:1">Coca Cola Co/The (KO US)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/865" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:865:1">Anheuser Busch Inbev Sa/Nv (ABI BB)</a> on their watch lists, given solid brand intangible assets, national distribution networks, and cost advantages.
