The following video is from Monday's Investor Beat, in which host Chris Hill and analysts Ron Gross and Jason Moser dissect the hardest-hitting investing stories of the day.

A judge blocks New York City's ban on large-sized sugary drinks. The ban was set to take effect on Tuesday.

In this installment of Investor Beat, our analysts discuss what the sugary soap opera means for investors.
