PFE opportunity or value trap?I have been following PFE for a while last year and almost added it as a staple to my core dividend portfolio which is about 25% of my long-term investing portfolio. The stock just printed its first whole bodied green candle since December of two years ago. The RSI is at historical levels not seen since 2009. The PE ratio has expanded a bit but still offers some multiple expansion here.
With a dividend over 5% and the stock having a huge margin of safety, this could be a strong bet to outperform money markets and provide a decent return. The stock rides the lower end of the Bollinger bands, it also saw 9 straight down months last year, similar to Verizon. I am very close to adding a huge chunk here before 30$. Even a 10% return this year with that 5% dividend is a win in these unsure markets.

First trade of 2024, let's start the year with a bang!
PFE Pfizer Inc STRONG BUYPFE Pfizer, a darling of the Covid pandemic era is currently down from 56$
Pfizer emerged as a significant beneficiary during the Covid-19 era, witnessing a surge in its stock price. However, as the Covid-19 concern recedes, its share price has also returned most of its gains. Nevertheless, Pfizer's success isn't solely dependent on a single event, as it possesses a diverse portfolio of drugs that contribute to a more varied revenue stream. Although the Covid-19 vaccines brought substantial profits to Pfizer, its resilience lies in its broader pharmaceutical offerings. Morningstar has provided a fair valuation of $48, indicating a potential upside of 46%.
Conservatives target are at $36 - $42 still a massive upside opportunity
PFE : A high-risk high-reward opportunityThe exponential growth of Pfizer during the COVID era can be attributed significantly to its role as a vaccine producer. However, the current levels of PFE are even lower than the pre-COVID trading price. The current stock price is approaching the lowest levels witnessed during the COVID-induced market crash. Consequently, almost all the increase in price driven by the COVID vaccine narrative is not reflected in the current stock price.
I perceive potential in Pfizer as a robust company at its current valuation.
I have entered the market twice at various levels, resulting in a total position size of approximately 1.85% of my capital. I am contemplating additional purchases to augment the position size to 2.5% of the capital. Will update underneath this post if and when I do so.
At present, my intention is to retain the position until the stock reaches its all-time high, presenting a potential upside move of about 122%.
Pfizer.... Start buildingPfizer is one of those companies that we all feel has been shady and the stock value shows it. As much as human emotion can draw this value down, hedge funds and smart money will start stepping in now. The chart says it all. We are talking about one of the longest running publically traded companies folks, this will rebound. Its not a matter of if, but when.
I have started a minor position in Pfizer today and plan to DCA weekly small amount until we form a bullish trend.
Good luck!
