This summary was created by AI, based on 27 opinions in the last 12 months.

Pfizer Inc. (PFE) is perceived as a defensive stock with an attractive dividend yield around 6-7%, appealing to income-focused investors. However, many experts express concern about the company's growth potential following a reliance on COVID-19 vaccine revenues, which have receded. The consensus indicates that while PFE maintains a low valuation (PE around 8-10x), its growth is stagnant or uncertain due to impending patent expirations and the challenges associated with developing new blockbuster drugs. Moreover, there are worries that the ongoing focus on acquisitions may not lead to the anticipated revenue boosts. Despite these concerns, some analysts suggest PFE could still perform well for patient investors, especially as sector interest begins to build. Ultimately, the outlook remains cautious, with a preference noted for other stocks in the pharmaceutical sector that exhibit better growth trajectories.

DON'T BUY
Drug stars such as Pfizer (PFE-N) Merck (MRK-N), etc. are attractively valued but are clearly out of favour. They have great long term track records and are in strong financial positions, however, there is a lack of predictability regarding the science. Doesn't like the cash flow dynamics where they spend billions up front with no sure win ahead. Litigation risks.
BUY
Still likes and is a believer in this company. His model price is 50% above the current price, but doesn't know when that value will be recognized.
DON'T BUY
No advantage to be in this stock. The whole drug area has changed in the last few years and they are not as strong as they once were. The market seems to be moving more to generics.
TOP PICK
His model price is $37.65, an 46% differential.
DON'T BUY
Very cheap on the numbers, but they have a patent issue on their largest drug, Lippitor. If they lost Lippitor, you would be looking at a stock below $20 overnight. There's a lot of risk in the name.
BUY
Have recently added this to his fund. Good free cash flow, strong balance sheet. There is some risk right now with their Lipitor drug. A group in India is making a generic version.
HOLD
Have done a lot of restructuring. Will cut their costs which will help. Part of the problem in the pharmaceutical industry has been the poor leadership in the FDA. A cheap stock and you're getting paid a 3.5% yield. Trades at a very low multiple.
BUY
It's in a big trading range of $25/29. Don't let it go below the low of $24. Hopefully it will break up through the trend line. You should be in this for at least 2 years.
BUY
Has a model price of $38.43.
DON'T BUY
They beat the numbers today. Numbers are pretty low. They are taking costs out. The problems with these stocks, which are all innovation dependent, is essentially depletion through generics.
BUY
Prefers the US health care stocks as they are much larger and much more seasoned. The big pharma has been a very difficult area. This one has been under a bit of a cloud, but it's cheap on an earnings basis.
DON'T BUY
Growth rate went from 30% three years ago to almost low single digits or flat. Not performing well. The group is in the early stages of a turn around, but would be more inclined to buy the company that has flourished through this period. Would prefer Abbott Labs (ABT-N).
DON'T BUY
The whole area has been beaten up and is very interesting. The big pharmas have a big challenge as the pipelines are a little bit bare. Would rather own companies that are suppliers to the pharmas, such as IMS Health (RX-N). (He doesn't follow big caps.)
BUY
RE:Call options Jan/07. Not particularily expensive as it has not been a volatile stock. Not a bad way to play the stock if you are bullish on the company. The company has a very good dividend, so call option are less than the put options quite often. (His play on this is through the Vipers (VHT-A).)
BUY
Got in on the Celebrex recall. This company has developed some fantastic drugs. Pharmaceutical stocks in the US have been absolutely decimated. Dirt cheap. 3.5% didvidend yield while you wait for a recovery. Generates a ton of free cash flow. Merck & Company (MRK-N) are in the same way.
