TOP PICK
Novartis AG
Made big money by selling off one division. Decent pipelines. Looking to sell off generic division. Dividend grows, share buybacks. Healthcare has become front and centre, and that's not going away. Safe haven. Underpriced at these levels. Yield is 3.55%. (Analysts’ price target is $88.96)

PAST TOP PICK
Novartis AG
(A Top Pick Nov 06/20, Down 1%) They just announced huge inflows after they redeemed their stake in Roche. They continue to do (and will do) more tuck-in acquisitions. And yet, it's a stock that can't get any love. There's no big news in the pipeline. Strong balance sheet. Tuck-ins will continue and it's possible they will spin-off their generics business, so there are catalysts to grow. Cheap now, so it's a buying opportunity.

(A Top Pick Nov 06/20, Up 3%) He bought it at a really low valuation. Dividend is very safe. Drug pipeline has been a bit slow. More upside from here than the market is reflecting. He's still buying.

It can't break above $90. He likes a half-dozen drug companies better.

TOP PICK
Novartis AG
A joint pharmaceutical company that has two businesses: branded and generic. The generic side will be very interesting post-covid when countries will be indebted and must provide cost-effective health care. The product pipeline looks reasonable. 6% dividend growth in the past 10 years. A safe steady growth opportunity. (Analysts’ price target is $102.00)

DON'T BUY
Novartis AG
He sold it recently. They sold their eye-care division and are back to generic drugs, a lousy business for all companies. Invest elsewhere.

$200 billion market cap. Fifty + drugs. None of them s over 6.5% of their revenue. They are spinning their ophthalmology business. Some positives there. He struggles to understand why the stock is down. Wouldn’t be his favorite European exposure but still well diversified solid business.

BUY
Novartis AG

He likes it because of its exposure to Entresto, which cardiologists often call a wonder drug. The drug is relatively expensive ($9 per day) so the issue is getting insurance companies to pay for it. He thinks the runway for the drug is excellent and that it will become a blockbuster within a year or two. Pharma companies are under pressure because Trump is currently talking about reducing drug prices, but he (Grammer) is willing to wait on this stock.

TOP PICK
Novartis AG

It is a very big company with a pipeline of 13 drugs that are close to approves that could be blockbusters. They have drugs for heart failure that cardiologists are keen on. They have an eye care drug. They have a nice mixture of health care drugs. Pharma is unloved but that is an opportunity he can see. (Analysts’ target: $93.00).

COMMENT
Novartis AG

This has 3 things going for it. It is an international stock being Swedish, and European stocks have been stronger than US stocks for the 1st time in 10 years, and that should continue. Secondly, it is in healthcare which he likes. Thirdly, they’ve been doing a lot of research in immune boosting therapy, helping people fight cancer. This is going to be huge as we have so much further to go in fighting this scourge.

HOLD
Novartis AG

They are joint ventured with Merck. Their oncology business is growing. Their dividend is stable. They are big pharma and you won’t see as much growth out of it. He is in it for the dividend.

COMMENT
Novartis AG

A value play that is run out of Switzerland with about a $200 billion market cap. There are 3 drivers to their business. There is the long-standing pharmaceuticals, they have the bio similar business, as well as Alcon for contact lenses. He likes the diversity. They have some key catalysts over the next couple of quarters. They are lacking in immuno ecology, cancer research, and there is speculation that they may sell one of their businesses in order to make an acquisition. Trading at 16X this year and down to just under 15X next year. Stable dividend. He likes this one very much.

WATCH
Novartis AG

The global pharma industry is under this cloud. The whole subsector is really struggling. They have come off their bottoms, but are working hard going sideways until we get more clarity on healthcare in the US.

BUY
Novartis AG

It is a really strong global pharma company. They are turning around their eye care business acquisition and their cardiac drug which had a bungled launch. If they are successful they will do quite well. It could be a blockbuster.
