AstraZeneca is a prominent player in the bio-tech market; the company's share prices have been fluctuating due to several events. Experiencing growth through
dividend stocks and being declared amongst the
best global stocks for hedge funds, the company has seen a rapid rise. However,
challenges in China due to insurance fraud probes and investigations led to
scandal and left investors seeking
clarity. This, however, was remedied when an update on the China probe led to a share price escalation. The company further
strategic expansion into China by purchasing FibroGen's China unit for $160m. Confidence in the market was restored with AstraZenecas' assertions of its safety as a dividend stock and consistently good performance in Q4 earning. The stock value suffered from a few blows, such as late
EPS and a lung cancer drug trial setback. The market rewarded the company's resilience in the face of these trials with a
stable outlook from Moody's. AstraZeneca continued to attract investors, as evidenced by wealth management firms increasing their holdings in the firm.
