He likes the yield. He believes they are making some headway on a CVT-19 drug on trial in China. They are also doing more M&A to bring innovation into their pipeline. They are working on liver disease drugs and HIV drugs. They have a clean balance sheet as well. Yield 3.68% (Analysts’ price target is $75.22)

It's a little speculative, because they could invent the coronavirus vaccine. In the past they found the hepatitis C cure. Gilead did very well until a few years ago. Now, their earnings and stock are half of their historic peak.

It is less of a diversified company than big pharma. He is not big on investment in this sector. It is a tough place to be. It would be better at a lower price.

Very disappointing. The update from the new CEO wasn't particularly exciting. Their HIV prep drugs is doing well. However with the Hepatitis C drug coming off patent, they have lost revenues. Deep value but they need to execute. They like the high yield with great premiums on the options. He would rather own another diversified biotech or a basket.

A drug company that was the poster boy for high prices for drugs including hep-C creating some bad sentiment. The company has a good pipeline on HIV drugs. It trades at less than 9 times earnings. The worst is behind them. Yield 4%

It has been a bit of a value trap for years. They were effective in the cure for HEP-C. For them it has been a declining revenue steam. They made an acquisition that did not work out. Revenues have dropped 40% over the last 5 years. He would stay clear of it.

It's been painful as it consolidates for the past 18 months. They have a hepatitis franchise, an expensive drug, that came off patent. Gilead failed to reinvest those profits, too. Their HIV franichise is doing very well. They acquired some companies, which look promising. The CEO is doing a good job. They are trading 9.5x fowarding earnings. Great dividend yield and balance sheet.

(A Top Pick Jun 27/18, Down 5%) An analyst just issued a sell report on them -- calling for a 10% downturn. It trades about 8.5 times earnings. They were victims of their success in hepatitis medicine as it cured too many people, he says. It pays a 4% yield.

Value trap for so long for so many. Cure for Hep C had generated huge cash flow. HIV franchise is leading the pack. Yesterday's numbers are fantastic. Likes that they've diversified their assets. New CEO gave realistic guidance. Likes it at these levels.

He's owned this for four years, but it's struggled in the past two as they've transitioned from their hepatitis C drug era (limited growth). But they just announced great results on a new HIV drug. It's a value trap though looking cheap at 9x earnings. Pays a 3.8% dividend. They still generate lots of cash flow. He'd stick with it. At least you get that yield. Also, they just got a new CEO, so they're in transition.

He still likes it here and especially at these valuations. The new CEO will be good. They have announced a couple of new joint ventures and it is trading at less than 10 times earnings. Their HEP-C advantage has been declining, but they have growth in their HIV franchise.
