BUY ON WEAKNESS
It is the Bell Canada of the business. He just sold at 42-43. At 38-39 it is a safe buy. The largest in the sector. Don't have a lot of product coming off patents.
HOLD
A successful drug company that has made many acquisitions that have led to good value and promising drugs. Healthcare stocks are under pressure in general as the Trump Administration is threatening to bring down drug costs. He thinks this will end and you will make good money holding.
HOLD
A long-term play. Low EPS growth of about 3.5-4%. Very large company. Don't have a lot of drugs that have exposure over 10%, except Prevnar. Not his favourite growth position. Diversity of assets. Need to do some M&A. Stable dividend. Only paying 15x. You can hold on to this.
WATCH
A quality company that pays a good dividend. Look at it now during negative sentiment due to political pressure in America over high drug prices. Be cautious near-term, but do your homework on this now.
WEAK BUY
Healthcare in general has outperformed in every bear market. A lot of it comes from large cap pharma companies. He prefers LLY-N. But there is no question that this one is interesting and has good management.
COMMENT
It is a safe dividend play. He looks at total return so dividends are important but recommends you don’t get caught in a dividend trap where there is capital at risk. A lot of dividend payers have moved their valuations to historical high levels. You have to be careful.
TOP PICK
He likes this group and PFE is one of the few that has tested support lines. This has big potential to return to the mid/high-$40s soon. He likes it here.
BUY
Great long base from 2015-18. The greater the base, the better the case. It broke out in mid-2018 and pulled back a bit. It looks healthy though. The chart looks encouraging.
TOP PICK
He sees about 18% upside and likes the healthcare sector. Yield 3.43% (Analysts’ price target is $45.85)
DON'T BUY
Merck vs. Pfizer Two large pharma companies that are treading water. A lot of the drugs they develop are coming off patent. You must look at their pipelines, with Merck doing very well while Pfizer has some good franchises, like Lipitor. Merck likely has the better pipeline. Neither has enough revenue growth or cash flow to entice him to buy.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 10/18, Up 21%) This was the conservative pick. He thought it was oversold and it had a nice run back to where it is. He trimmed a little back and is not as positive on it now. They are going to pool their consumer product divisions with Glaxo. Probably 5-10% return this year.
DON'T BUY
They make their money by constantly cost cutting. When their drugs go off-patent then they need to find another to replace it. It is a leaky-boat story. When you look at the cost multiples, which he thinks are expensive, he would pass on this. He would consider bio-pharma instead.
BUY
2019 outlook? The US healthcare sector has been very defensive in this market; they're not as off other sectors. The sector went sideways during the 2016 US election campaign. PFE has announced the price of 40-50 of their drugs will be raised. Plenty of runway in this company. But in 2019, if there's a market recovery, money will flow out of healthcare and back into tech. But you're good to own this.
TOP PICK
A defensive name. Revenues at $52 billion per year. ROE is going higher. Dividend yield is 3.0% and P/E is 15. Strong pipeline. (Analysts’ price target is $45.09)
HOLD
Likes it. Diversified pharma. Good pipeline of assets that look robust. Trades at 15x earnings, which is reasonable. Slightly lower growth rate than peers but pays a good dividend. The chart looks fantastic and has benefited from the recent safety trade.
