GSK's share performance has witnessed an upward trend in recent months. Buoyed by a promising long-term outlook and a $2.5 billion share buyback plan, GSK's stock has risen considerably for seven consecutive sessions. This has attracted the attention of hedge funds like Citadel who have taken short positions in the GSK. Further contributing to the positive momentum is the significant level of insider investment; GSK executives have made several purchases under their reward plans.
There's also positive speculation around GSK being a top pick in terms of undervalued pharmaceutical stock with significant potential for weight loss and immunology drugs. However, recently it plummeted to a 10-month low due to less-than-expected performance from its RSV and Shingles vaccines. Despite this, the stock rebounded with well-received fourth-quarter results and a commitment to return GBP 2 billion to shareholders. Yet, some critics suggest that GSK's shares are under pressure from potential activist campaigns and are at risk.
