Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX) has been in the spotlight in recent months, with its share plunging around 24% in the past six months, attracting the attention of both retail and institutional investors. On one hand, several major financial institutions and private wealth & trust firms have been altering their stake in Vertex, with some acquiring new holdings while others have reduced their positions. On a brighter note, the company has received Italian reimbursement for its gene-edited therapy and approval from the EU Commission for cystic fibrosis treatment. However, the company's overpricing threat is a concern for investors. On the financial front, revenue and earnings reports have seen mixed reactions, with soft performance impacting stock price, despite strong Q2 2025 revenue growth of $2,965 Million. The company has been proactive with product launches including CASGEVY, the first CRISPR gene therapy in Italy, and JOURNAVX, a first non-opioid acute pain treatment. The company is also advancing cystic fibrosis treatment with ALYFTREK approval in Canada, and has signed a worth up to $2B plus equity R&D pact with Enlaza.
