I agree that PFE is making the right strategic move in continued heavy investing in R and D, particularly the D part. Very few, if any other pharma co., has the financial power and technical know-how to maximize future opportunities like PFE. (For example, WLA has the cash flow but not the "intelligence" (IMHO) to maximize R and D output). PFE could have easily stunted the increase of R and D spending and made the earnings look better. They didn't do that because that's the wrong way to operate this company. This is in such a great contrast to others who "fudge" the numbers to make the bottom line look good (I know, I've been an active participant in some of those exercises at a large pharma.

The contrast between PFE and ALL other pharmas will become even greater when all of this R and D start to bear even more fruits.
