Pfizer Inc (PFE) is facing significant challenges including a patent cliff and the aftermath of over-earning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The company has made efforts to bolster its drug pipeline through acquisitions, such as Seagen, but many experts express concerns about the lack of earnings momentum and blockbusters to drive growth. While the stock offers an attractive dividend yield (around 6-7%), there is a prevailing sentiment around its long-term growth prospects as reliance on cost-cutting and strategic acquisitions seems insufficient. Analysts highlight the need for a new growth catalyst, particularly in oncology, to reassure investors as the dividend yield may be at risk if substantial progress with new drugs is not achieved. Overall, patience is emphasized by many experts, with a hope that the stock will eventually perform better amid potential improvements in government policies and market conditions.

TOP PICK
His model price is $42.32 a positive 66% differential. Until they read off their goodwill, the stock will probably be in the doghouse for a while.
BUY
This is a value stock. A number of its drugs have either come off patent or will be in the next 2, 3 years. On the other hand, it has a strong research/development pipeline and about $19 billion in cash. Cash will be used to raise the dividends, buy back
DON'T BUY
Many pharmaceuticals are faced with an uncertain political environment. This is more important than patent expirations. They are faced with a national health system in the US if there is a change in the government in 2008.
TOP PICK
You are getting almost 5% yield while waiting for their pipeline to improve. All the bad news about drugs coming off of patent is out now. Have a huge cash horde that they will use at the right time to acquire companies with promising drugs.
BUY
His model price is $39.86, a 61% positive differential. In his top 10. The one consolation on this is that you get a 5% dividend while you wait. Hopes they will write off a lot of their Pharmacia acquisition. Until they do, he doesn't expect much movement.
DON'T BUY
Almost 5% yield. Their cholesterol drug is coming off patent, which almost made up 25% of their revenues. They have to find a way to replace this.
BUY
Corrected partly because of the market and also its latest earnings report was somewhat disappointing even though the company advised that the full year and next year's earnings are expected to be as they previously stated. Almost 5% yield, which totally limits downside risk in the stock. On a market turn around, this will be a major participant.

DON'T BUY
Has been a very frustrating stock to have. Doesn't seem to be able to get out of its own way.
HOLD
Just reported numbers that were a little bit lighter than expectations. They also reaffirmed their view for next year that they expect to make back the shortfall later in the year. This knee-jerk reaction is an opportunity. 4.5% new.
DON'T BUY
Doesn't like the business models of pharmaceutical companies. Can be hit by generics, lawsuits, etc.. Prefers business models with downside protection. After the next US election, expect there will be severe regulations on pharmaceutical prices.
DON'T BUY
A pure pharmaceutical play and he cautious on this sector. Concerned about lawsuits, patent litigations on generic drugs and also patent expiries.
