Merck stocks are under careful scrutiny as speculations and rumors of both bullish and bearish nature affect the market sentiment. The potential $3 billion
takeover of biotech company MoonLake Immunotherapeutics and talks of purchasing SpringWorks for $3.5 billion indicate aggressive expansion in the biotech sector. However, Merck's stock has recently experienced some
underperformance against the Nasdaq, drawing negative attention. Despite this, several Wall Street analysts remain
bullish, with Goldman Sachs and BMO Capital maintaining buy ratings on the stock even amid short term challenges and possible risks. Moreover, Merck remains attractive to value investors such as Ken Fisher. However, concerns linger about Keytruda's dependency, with the growth story potentially hitting an expiration date. Moreover, a lowered profit outlook, partly due to a $200 million expected tariff hit, can't be ignored. Additionally, there is widespread discussion about the stock being
undervalued, indexing it as a potentially cheap purchase with high dividends.
