Teva PharmaceuticalTEVADON'T BUYFeb 13, 2019
They do generic drugs, the largest player in the world. They're smart and great at what they do. But they made a big acqusition that pressured their margins and hurt the company. But management has since changed and the company is recovering. They're still reducing their debt. TEVA should continue to grow. But this turnaround will take time.

HOLD
Generic brand companies like Teva have struggled in the last 5 years has they competed with each others. Pfizer is in the process of buying one of their competitors and the Pfizer stock dropped 5$ on the announcement. Doesn't own Teva, purchased United Heatlth recently. You can hold but it's not a name he would hold due to the risk and they have no value added.

They went from an in incredibly well managed drug company and then management decided to develop their own drugs and make mistakes. It is difficult to unwind these problems. Turning around a company like this will be difficult because of the debt. This is a highly speculative stock.

DON'T BUY
A generic drug company that has had troubled times as pricing is becoming very competitive. Buyers are consolidating and squeezing margins. They have a MS drug that was a market leader, but now there are others competing. He would rather own brand name drug companies that can become leaders in their field.

It has done very well. But they made a huge acquisitions three years ago, taking on a lot of debt. They went through several CEOs. The generic drug space is tough and competitive. Generic drug pricing is limited as we head towards a U.S. election; generics are a target of politicians. Also, there are many lawsuits in the generic drug industry. Generics should do better after the election.
