Merck & Co. Inc. is speculated to be a strong
healthcare stock pick for 2024 but its performance has been questionable compared to competitors.
Investment groups such as Sierra Summit Advisors, Garde Capital, and WNY Asset Management are increasing their stakes in Merck. Despite questions about its valuation, the stock remains attractive as it closed strongly in Q1. However, financial advisories caution against purchasing before the stock goes ex-dividend. Its
Keytruda cancer drug holds promise but faces competition from Summit Therapeutics. Despite a mixed trading record, some noted Merck's strong performance on trading days and a rising trend despite underperforming the market. Investors seem
bullish with the stock climbing 4.1%, despite earnings trending downwards. Concerns were raised over insiders selling US$12m in stocks. FDA's approval of its cardiovascular disease drug
Winrevair sent the stock to record high while increased
Keytruda sales are expected to drive Q1 earnings. Despite trailing Pfizer in market performance, Merck's innovation in
dividend payouts and pharmaceutical products make it a compelling pick.
