Merck & Co., Inc. has had a disappointing performance in the recent stock market due to the
weak fundamentals. The pharmaceutical giant is struggling to keep up with competitors regardless of multiple trading days showing outperformance. Merck's Stock is facing questions about its
valuation at $130, as well as its potential weaknesses suggested by a
large decline in short interest and insider sales. Despite this, the company has had some
positive milestones, including achieving
record high on the back of FDA approval for its cardiovascular disease drug and riding a 'star' cancer drug to another
quarterly beat. However, there are concerns about the
financial prospects and potential for a share price correction. The stock's future partly depends on the success of
Q2 earnings and the launch of the drug
Sotatercept. Merck's high institutional ownership, which stands at a hefty 78%, is another fundamental detail to note.
