Pfizer Inc. (PFE) is currently facing challenges following its pandemic-driven peak during which it surged due to COVID-19 vaccine sales. Experts have pointed out a lack of earnings momentum and concerns over a patent cliff, as key drugs have come off patent and the company needs to innovate to develop new blockbuster drugs. Despite these challenges, many analysts emphasize the attractive dividend yield, which remains around 6-8%. The company is pivoting towards growth areas such as obesity and oncology, and while there's a general belief that PFE is under pressure, patience from investors could yield positive results. Several insights indicate that while it may not attract immediate growth, the company’s efforts in acquisitions and drug development could eventually pay off, given time.

BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Good dividend yield. Company is buying back a lot of stocks. Well-run in a very tough business.
BUY
His model price is $26.88, which is a 22% positive differential. Yielding 4%. This happens to be one that has valuation and yield together, which is great. His target would be about $26.
DON'T BUY
Pharmaceutical space is tough. Lipitor is a drug that is going off-patent which will reduce their income.
BUY
The 3 sectors hated sectors in the US are financials, healthcare and technology. They have done a lot of smart things recently. They increased the dividend and announced a share buyback. Valuation is quite cheap and he is looking at this one.
HOLD
A good space. Defensive name. Prefers JNJ. Seeing higher lows this year. Could come down to a higher low. Ranked 5th on his list. Would hold it.
SELL
The whole pharma business is challenged. PFE is predicting lower revenues next year. Management is talking about breaking up the company. With Lipitor patent expiring, he would just sell it.
DON'T BUY
Suffering from loosing their patent on lipitor. Will be a pullback on earnings. Trying to reassess their businesses and potentially spinning some off. Not a big fan of large cap Pharma. Prefers diversified health care companies like Abbot.
TOP PICK
Debt rating cut but it doesn’t matter to him. They all have the patent cliff. He likes that they bought Wyeth who have a lot of drugs on patent. People say PFE is too big to make a difference if a new drug comes along so they are shrinking the company. Big, safe dividends.
DON'T BUY
Lipitor is coming off patent and accounts for a boat 20% of their revenues. Sales are expected to drop about 5% next year.
WEAK BUY
Largest drug company in the world. Good pipeline, but they have been paring it down to focus on new drugs. Prefers Teva.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
This would be his 2nd choice after Eli Lilly (LLY-N). Facing the issue of a patent cliff where drugs are coming off patent. Has about 4 drugs expecting to move into phase 3 trials. Very attractive multiple. Good dividend yield.
HOLD
Largest global pharma. Likes it. Whole pharma sector has been suffering from a lack of new block buster drugs. This one is facing the expiration of the patent on their Lipitor drug but this is already reflected in the stock price. Have some very promising drugs in phase 2 and 3 clinical trials. Stock is not expensive and has a 4% yield.
DON'T BUY
Has done well lately on the potential of it breaking up and selling off the pieces. The difficulty in the whole pharma sector is that it is tough to grow.
BUY
Likes this one especially because they have announced they are going to downsize the company and shareholders will be rewarded for that. Selling a capsule manufacturing company for $2.5 billion.
DON'T BUY
Drug sector is all suffering from same thing – drugs coming off patent faster than entering the pipeline. Are trying to rebuild themselves. They are all trying to get their costs down.
