As of Jun 05, 2026. Market Open.
Seems to have grown to a bigger piece of the portfolio than the investor is comfortable with. Doesn't have too strong an opinion on this particular stock. If you want to trim, a great way is to sell a covered call -- you sell somebody the right to buy the stock from you at a higher price.
With shares right now around $194, you can sell a September $200 call for about $4.50. If the stock doesn't go up, then you end up just hanging on to your stock.
A spin-off from Abbott Laboratories (ABT-N). Strong exposure to immunology and oncology medicines. Dividend Yield of 4.2%. The stock sold off because they had a setback on a cancer drugs, but it is overdone in his opinion. Great way to own a strong growing pharma company. (Analysts’ price target is $120.27)
