The general consensus about Merck & Co., Inc. (MRK) seem to be mixed but mainly positive, despite the stock's performance not matching the broader market's uptick. MARK (MRK) has seen consistent endorsement from UBS and Goldman Sachs which reassured their buy ratings on the stock even amid depressed market sentiment. Analysis indicates that there could be a 40% upside to MRK stock making it a potential buy. The company has proven its ability to generate steady dividends, and the dividend yield theory suggests Merck is an available option to purchase.
FDA approval of ENFLONSIA™ for preventing RSV Lower Respiratory Tract Disease, potential PAH Drug Winrevair, and a single-dose Dengue vaccine entering final testing phase showcase Merck's innovative capabilities and drug pipeline. However, reliance on top-selling drug, Keytruda, due to imminent loss of exclusivity (LOE) stands as a significant challenge. A possible billion-dollar acquisition of MoonLake Immunotherapeutics further reinforces Merck's expansionary mindset and strategic investment for future growth. Merck (MRK) is also one of the value stocks in Ken Fisher’s portfolio.
