PFE
Pfizer Inc.
stock NYSE

I am stubborn af and didn't believe that. I started investing when I was 22 and spent the first 5 years mostly investing in duds like PFE, VZ, T, O and so on.
Maybe they are fine if you are nearing retirement. But if you are young it's like leaving your money in a savings account, in some cases even worse. I could have easily doubled my money if I didn't invest in those boomer stocks, but here we are.

MO PFE O sell OTM call for extra 10-15% yield

Thanks to everyone who replied so far, much appreciated. I’m rather new to all this to be honest, but have been reading a lot and doing as much research as possible as I learn and go. Right now my weighting is pretty even among the 4 funds in my Roth IRA.
I’m 42, recently retired service member and employed in the civilian world now. I’m maxing out my employer Roth 401k and maxing out my Roth IRA and trying to put as much as I can into a brokerage account as well where I’m 80% SCHD and 20% sprinkled into MO, PFE, VZ, PEP.
Really trying to retire comfortably before 60. Not trying to be super rich but would like to be able to travel to other countries that have a different kind of sand and not be stressed out about finances.
I wish I had been contributing to a Roth IRA from when I was 18, but didn’t even know what that was back then hahaha. Always thought I would serve my country, do my time and get my retirement. Realize now I can’t really live off just my mil retirement alone…

I like Selling OTM covered call instead of put cuz I will get dividend while I wait to appreciate. I usually rollover until I get credit. Doing so on TLT O MO PFE NKE ET JD.

That's fair.
I'm speaking more in generic terms about the American consumer, not specifically directed at you alone.
Risk is inversely proportional to Bitcoin’s market cap, right now is a safer time to buy than ever. IBIT is the fastest growing ETF in US history, and Blackrock's most profitable of all time. What do you think will happen now...
It is very normal to think we're too late when we first stumble upon it, I was once there too. Too late when I read the headlines for it at 10. Too late at 100, too late but decided to buy a little at 1k. People still kept thinking its too late at 10k, 100k... but when you know (after you do the DD) with certainty its going to 10MM over the span of 20 years, no you're not too late.
Normies still think Bitcoin is “too late” at $120k… Meanwhile the dollar has lost 99.8% of its value since 1913, and they just spent $14.75 on a Panera sandwich that tastes like drywall soaked in regret.
Imagine watching BlackRock, Fidelity, Goldman-Sachs, over a dozen major hedge funds, and trillion-dollar institutions stampede into Bitcoin. And you decide to buy PFE. That’s like seeing Moses part the Red Sea and thinking, “Yeah but what if I invest in the sand?”
Now is the time, it's the most uncompromisable savings instrument ever devised.
Edit: In the meantime, allocate an amount you can forget about and wont lose sleep over, then check on it in 10 years.
You'll be glad you did.

There is substantially more volatility and risk with individual stocks. If you bought NVDA a decade ago, that risk worked out in your favor. If you bought PFE (Pfizer) and held if for the last 5 years, you're down 28 percent during the time the overall market is up 95 percent.
For most people, it's wise to buy the overall market with a low cost index fund. Some try to do both with a large portion of their account in a low cost index, and then a smaller portion in some individual sectors or company stocks.

PFE and NVO seem to be good undervalued companies in my opinion for the long run. UNH is too risky for my liking. VZ is also good for a more stable stock but yet still high in returns.

For long-term defensive portfolio, I really like PFE.
To invest a seed of investment and let it sprout over time, I like the SDGR business, not only because of its experience and software, but because perhaps one day it will become a pharma and I would like to be at the beginning of that new era in the company.

[Discusión] Mis 3 elecciones para comprar y mantener: PFE, ZENA y Oro

In beaten down healthcare stocks. UNH, TMO, BMY, PFE etc

I really like PFE. Bought it a few months ago. Up about 7/8% so happy with that. Will reinvest the dividend's and grow the position. A good defensive stock. I'm mostly in growth stocks. Bought Robinhood around the same time and up over 100% in that already. But it's about balance and PFE has a nice dividend yield that should be fairly safe

PFE

Portfolio is at $1.78 million. Yield on cost is at 5.53%. Portfolio volatitily beta is currently at 0.38.
My portfolio is still pretty conservative. Still top heavy on cash equivalent and bonds. Planning to DCA across other asset classes slowly but will buy more as the market cycles through these asset classes when they get cheap. Trying to manage my risk. In the meantime, I am collecting these dividends while the safer asset classes are still providing a high yield.
I have assigned my holdings across several asset classes. These include: Cash, US Bonds, US Stocks, Int'l Bonds, Int'l Stocks, Alternative Income, and Gold.
Cash/Cash Equivalent @ 27.9% of Portfolio (SGOV)
US Bonds @ 25.2% of Portfolio (CLOA, CLOZ)
US Stocks @ 17.9% of Portfolio (SCHD, WU, UPS, PFE, SPYI, GOOG, LYB, DOW, JEPQ, BRK-B, CVX, VOO)
Int'l Bonds @ 5.5% of Portfolio (EMLC)
Int'l Stocks @ 5.7% of Portfolio (VYMI, VGK)
Alternative @ 14.0% of Portfolio (MLPA, O, OBDC, RITM, DOC, KBWY, ARCC)
Gold @ 3.9% of Portfolio (GLDM)

For defense I would add PFE

I think JnJ, Pepsi, Sbux, PFE, and TROW are all undervalued right now.

The fact that $VKTX can offer potential oral and monthly maintenance after SC with the same molecule is not to be underestimated. Even $LLy does not have that. It is uncertain how people will react when switching from TP to orfoglipron.. large pharma eyes on that as almost everyone there is talking about need for solutions for long-term adherence beyond 1-2 years. Listen to $ABBV $PFE and others.
Don’t believe $NVO semaglutide is competitive with that
Viking only needs to show that small dose oral has any activity in phase 2 in a few weeks
