Merck & Co (MRK) has been making significant advancements in the biotech market. Aiming towards a diversified business portfolio, the company has commenced with major deals and acquisitions recently estimated around $10 billion, such as
Verona Pharma, which have led to an impressive rise in Verona Pharma's stocks. This move helps to augment the new drug therapies in their product line. The company is also getting a step closer to a once-monthly HIV prevention pill with the initiation of
Phase III studies. Further strengthening its position in the market,
Eli Lilly and Merck are evaluated on their current standing, with Merck gaining an advantage. Additionally, the dividend returns carried by the company are being recognized as consistent and promising for investors. However, it's important to note the potential Keytruda patent cliff, which might pose a challenge for the firm. Despite challenging market conditions, and even as
Morgan Stanley holds its rating and reduces price targets, brokers are suggesting to invest in Merck.
Merck's well-thought strategic decisions and obvious advancements prove promising for those willing to hold onto these stocks long term.
