This summary was created by AI, based on 24 opinions in the last 12 months.

Pfizer Inc. (PFE) has faced challenges following its prominent role during the Covid-19 pandemic, with many experts pointing out the looming patent cliffs and the need for new blockbuster drugs to sustain growth. The company is heavily reliant on its dividends, offering yields between 6% to 8%, which many investors find attractive in a low growth environment. While some view it as a value play due to its low price-to-earnings ratio, others express concerns that it may be a value trap due to uncertain growth prospects. The overall sentiment reflects a cautious approach, favoring the dividend payout amidst worries about drug pipeline sustainability and the impact of recent acquisitions on its future performance.

DON'T BUY
Cut the dividend in order to preserve cash to make acquisitions even though their balance sheets is fortress like. Lipitor is coming off patent in a couple of years. Stock has been very disappointing. A "show me" stock.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Just completing an acquisition.
HOLD
At this price it is probably near a low. Made a big acquisition that is scaring everybody. Can't see a lot of downside from here.
SELL
Made a huge bet with their acquisition of Wyeth and the patents are running off. If it doesn't work out they are going to have some very difficult times.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 7/08. Down 28,2%.) Likes it for its valuation and its recent acquisition of Wyeth, which gets them into biotechnology and vaccines. Cheap on an earnings basis. Over 4% dividend. In a recession, drug stocks do relatively well. Stock has been oversold.
BUY
Currently, pharmaceutical stocks are outperforming the market. A good place to hide and to make some money. Yield of 7.2%. Lots of cash.
TOP PICK
His model price is $24.87, a 50% upside. $24 billion in cash.
SELL
Get Out! Sell. Not a fan of pharmaceuticals. Feels innovations will be in biotechnology not pharmaceuticals.
TRADE
Manufactures of the drug lipidore (the most popular cholesterol drug) Their patent is running out in 2011 - 2012 and they are considering walking away and getting into cancer drugs.
DON'T BUY
Health care space, specifically drugs and bio pharmaceuticals is interesting but this is not one that he would Buy. Continue to have issues with drugs coming off of patents and relatively low revenue growth. Would prefer something like Gilead Sciences (GILD-Q) or a generic like Teva (TEVA-Q). This is an area where you should have some exposure.
COMMENT
High dividend yield. Cheap because people think there is not much in the pipeline. Lipitor will be going off patent so earnings will drop. Almost like a short-term bond in that you get cash flow from existing drugs that are pretty dependable but not much growth. Sold his holdings about 2 years ago because of lack of growth. Relatively safe but not a lot of upside.
DON'T BUY
Have a lot of cash and produce a lot of cash flow. Very high dividend. They cannot seem to get any catalyst for growth. A lot of competition from generic drug companies.
HOLD
Losing Lipitor in a couple of years but thinks this is priced into the stock. They are doing cost cutting. Pipeline is a little weak. From a historic PE level and dividend it is a very attractive value. However, if the US is to regulate more and put price fixing on drugs, that would definitely be a negative.
BUY
Interesting sock. Almost like a bond. Price assumes there will be no significant new drugs so revenue is based on existing drugs until they come off patent. No phase 2 drugs have hit over the last 2 years.
DON'T BUY
Drugs are coming off patent and are they going to be able to replenish the pipeline? Does management have the ability to keep the cash flow chugging along? The market is telling you No. 7% yield but that there is very little else.
