Abstract
We evaluate PepsiCo prediction models with Inductive Learning (ML) and Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test1,2,3,4 and conclude that the PEP stock is predictable in the short/long term. According to price forecasts for (n+1 year) period: The dominant strategy among neural network is to Buy PEP stock.

PEP Target Price Prediction Modeling Methodology
We consider PepsiCo Stock Decision Process with Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test where A is the set of discrete actions of PEP stock holders, F is the set of discrete states, P : S × F × S → R is the transition probability distribution, R : S × F → R is the reaction function, and γ ∈ [0, 1] is a move factor for expectation.1,2,3,4
F(Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test)5,6,7= X R(Inductive Learning (ML)) X S(n):→ (n+1 year)
n:Time series to forecast
p:Price signals of PEP stock
j:Nash equilibria
k:Dominated move
a:Best response for target price

Conclusions
PepsiCo assigned short-term B3 & long-term B1 forecasted stock rating. We evaluate the prediction models Inductive Learning (ML) with Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test1,2,3,4 and conclude that the PEP stock is predictable in the short/long term. According to price forecasts for (n+1 year) period: The dominant strategy among neural network is to Buy PEP stock.
