　　公司的拆分能助一臂之力吗?百事必定会追随这一趋势。今年二月，蛋糕和香肠售卖商萨拉李说百事将会分成一个美国零售业务部和一个食物服务业务部，以及一个肉类食品业部。今年8月，克拉夫特宣称百事会将国际化的食品品牌从北美杂货业务中分离出去，其北美杂货业务包括麦克斯韦尔家庭咖啡，Jell-O 和 Oscar Mayermeats。本月早些时候，通过拆分一家大型多元化公司Fortune Brands而形成的两家公司开始在纽约证券交易所上市交易。投资者们可以在Fortune Brands Home Security 和Beam的股票之间做出选择。

　　Not allthese splits will work out. One or two had a whiff of desperation, says AswathDamodaranof the Stern School of Business.
