- Wednesday, May 22, 11:07 AM AIG remains at the top Goldman's list of hedge fund hotels (the 50 stocks appearing most frequently among hedge fund top 10 holdings). Google (GOOG) retains its #2 position. Apple (APPL) - in the top spot for 3 years until February - remains at #3. Goldman notes the basket has outperformed the S&P a bit this year and the top 20 has done better by more than 1000 basis points. We smell an ETF offering. The rest of the top 20: C, GM, PCLN, VMED, NWSA, MSFT, HTZ, JPM, APC, PFE, QCOM, CHTR, HES, CBS, EBAY, DAL, EQIX. 2 Comments
- Wednesday, May 22, 8:18 AM Pfizer (PFE) plans to spin off its remaining stake in Zoetis (ZTS) through a tax-free exchange offer in which Pfizer owners can exchange their Pfizer shares for stock in Zoetis owned by Pfizer (got that?). Pfizer has received a waiver of the 180-day lock-up from the book runners of the Zoetis IPO. PFE +2.1%, ZTS -1.2% premarket. (PR) 9 Comments [Healthcare, Breaking News, On the Move]
- Monday, May 20, 5:23 PM Pfizer (PFE) says it's discontinuing Phase 3 studies on its investigational compound inotuzumab ozogamicin in combination with rituximab, a treatment for patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma who are not candidates for intensive high-dose chemotherapy, after the study failed to meet its primary objective of improving overall survival. No new or unexpected safety issues were identified, and PFE says it's continuing to review the the drug for potential subset applications. Shares -0.3% AH. Comment! [Healthcare]
- Friday, May 10, 8:12 AM Pain Therapeutics (PTIE) craters 45.5% in premarket trading after Pfizer (PFE) says it is "considering its options" on Remoxy and may not respond to the FDA's complete response letter anytime in the next two years. PTIE sub-licensed Remoxy's commercialization rights to PFE subsidiary King Pharma (I, II). Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Friday, May 10, 7:46 AM Pfizer (PFE) updates Durect (DRRX) on Remoxy, saying that it's "considering its options", and that if it elects to continue development of Remoxy, "we would not expect to submit a response to the "complete response" letter before mid-2015." (PR) This is less positive than expected by SA author Jason Napodano; shares are -12.6% premarket. 1 Comment [Healthcare, On the Move, Breaking News]
- Monday, May 6, 1:36 PM Merck (MRK -1.3%) gets no love today from the FDA's approval of Liptruxet late Friday, as the stock is likely dragged down with the rest of the big pharma names on the back of a CNBC report that criticizes their earnings so far. The article points to the fact that pharmaceutical companies have seen a 4.7% contraction in earnings, and a 3.2% drop in revenue this quarter. Why? Morningstar's Damien Cover says there are two primary reasons: FX impact, especially from the yen, and intensified generic competition from patent losses. Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Monday, May 6, 9:38 AM More on Pfizer (PFE -0.5%): A plan by the company to sell Viagra online is motivated by the estimated hundreds of millions of dollars it loses to counterfeit versions of the drug found online. A ticking clock for patent expiration (2020) in the U.S. could also be a factor. To attract new customers, Pfizer will reportedly become more promotional with Viagra by offering three free pills with the first order and then 30% off order number two. 3 Comments [Healthcare]
- Monday, May 6, 9:23 AM Pfizer (PFE) plans to start selling Viagra online, according to an AP report. The initiative could serve as a test run by Big Pharma over disrupting its current model to look at online distribution for treatments viewed as more embarrassing to buy in person. Drugstore operators (CVS, WAG, RAD) will be watching the development very carefully. PFE -0.1% premarket. 2 Comments [Healthcare, Consumer]
- Tuesday, April 30, 11:41 AM Pain Therapeutics (PTIE +19%) and Durect (DRRX +25.5%) both soar on the back of positive comments out of Pfizer's (PFE) conference call about Remoxy, an oxycodone capsule the pair have been developing. PTIE sub-licensed Remoxy's commercialization rights to King Pharmaceuticals, which is a subsidiary of PFE, and the pharma-giant noted in its call that it's had a productive meeting with the FDA last month regarding the drug. (PFE Conference Call Webcast) 1 Comment [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 30, 7:21 AM More on Pfizer (PFE) Q1 earnings: Sales fell 9% Y/Y - 8% operational, 1% unfavorable fx adjustment. Much of the operational decrease due to loss of exclusivity of Lipitor. Emerging markets revenue +6%. Adjusted cost of sales fell 7%. FY2013 revenue guidance reduced to $55.3B-$57.3B from $56.2B-$58.2B. Adjusted EPS of $2.14-$2.24 from $2.20-$2.30.

$PFE breaking out multi-year highs. Lots of investors jumped ship early on this one. It is getting close to oversold. how far does this run? - View all 6 replies

The Hammer: Broke above $30 nice. however the pure pharma business model is riskier than the nvs or jnj model more preferred. Hope it runs fast

The Hammer: will lighten up into a nice spike from here. reinvested every div over something like 7 years or so.

Joseph P. Porter: From Bloomberg - it sounds as if the "correction" could become a Q2-long phenomenon, depending on earnings. They will have to pry $PFE out
-
Joseph P. Porter: of my cold, dead hands. Q2 tends to be a bit iffy, anyway. Much pessimism out there right now because of soft job #'s and Europe.
