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.

DON'T BUY
Owned it about a year ago with a theory that their drugs were worth what the stock price was going at hand you would make money on all the new drugs they developed. The problem is, they haven't developed any new drugs in almost 3 years. Would prefer Merck (MRK-N).
BUY
Worth considering at this price. Very cheap. Double-digit free cash flow yield and very attractive dividend yield. Lipitor will be coming off patent and pipeline of new drugs is relatively thin. Will be lucky to have 0% growth over the next 5 years but over the very long term they will get the pipeline filled.
DON'T BUY
Pharmaceutical group is behaving better. This one is less attractive and is facing drugs coming off patent. Prefers others.
TOP PICK
Earnings where fantastic. Yield of 6.6%.
COMMENT
At an interesting Buy point but not sure he would buy it currently. On his Watch list.
SELL
(Market Call Minute.) Broken stock and he can't see what is going to turn it around.
HOLD
All of the big pharma have been very disappointing. Now yielding over 7% but doesn't think the dividend is in jeopardy as the cash flow is amazingly strong. Won't be a great investment for another year or so.
DON'T BUY
Not cheap enough for him yet. He would have to go over the financial statements. There are a lot of companies in this area that may be of interest in the next few years.
TOP PICK
Model price has been decreasing over the last 9 months, but not all that much. Thinks it will go down to $15.75 but he sees in setting up as a huge rally in healthcare related stocks in Q4 or Q1 of 09. Has an 86% positive differential.
DON'T BUY
Pharmaceutical industry in the US has been a disappointment for 2 or 3 years. There is concern about the new drug pipeline. Also a large number of blockbuster drugs are coming off patent for many companies. Also increased competition from generic companies. At 7.2%, the market is telling you it does not believe the dividend is safe.
DON'T BUY
Its problem, along with many of the health care companies in the US, is the pipeline. Lipitor, which is a large portion of their revenues, comes off patent next year. Have lots of cash flow but haven't been able to take advantage to develop anything. Would buy Novo-Nordisk (NVO-N) instead.
DON'T BUY
From his perspective, it has absolutely technically broken down. Looks like almost everything is going against it. Also, it is likely Democrats will come to power and won't be helpful to the drug companies.
SELL
6.73% dividend. Doesn't see a lot of prospects in their pipeline. Some of their big money makers are in a lot of jeopardy from competition. If you like pharmaceuticals, consider moving into Johnson & Johnson (JNJ-N).
SELL
Product portfolio continues to undergo greater competition from generics. New products are declining. Still haven't turned the corner. Generics such as Teva Pharmaceutical (TEVA-Q) would be more attractive.
DON'T BUY
Candidates in the presidential race have not been positive on pharmaceutical companies. The problem with this company however is the lack of a pipeline. Most of the earnings are coming from some products that are going to go off patent in the next couple of years. Has become more and more expensive to generate new drugs. The dividend could be a potential trap and could be lowered.
