Big Pharma Report: October 24, 1998 Have PFun! BigKNY3 _________________________________________ Big Pharma Review - Big Pharma (+2.1%) continues to outpace the Dow (+0.4%). 11 of the "Healthy 13" showed gains with only MRK (-4.0%) and PNU (-1.7%) showing declines. Two Pharmas recorded all-time highs; quiet and steady ABT and suddenly upbeat JNJ. -This month's correcting Pharma SBH (+6.8%) continued to pace the sector for the week followed by PFE (+5.1%). Although this was a news-less week, PFE continues to benefit from analysts' support of their "confusing" 3Q EPS Report. -YTD, Big Pharma (+32.1%) is once again over the 30 level and clearly outpacing all major general markets. - In the YTD race, strong earnings reports helped the leaders, WLA remains #1 with an impressive 84% gain, followed by SGP (+62%. Third place is now a real battle among ABT (+42.9%), AMGN (+41.3%), PFE (+39%) and PNU (+36%). -I believe for the first time ever , all Pharmas are showing positive double digit gains. _________________________________________________________ News You Can Use Big Pharma Earnings and News Drug Companies Report Solid Earningsbiz.yahoo.com LLY Earnings Riselilly.com WLA 3Q Rises 49% on Lipitor Sales of $569 Millionnews.com WLA Beats the Street aol://4344:2783.B191038D.29425995.593297735 Monsanto Back to the Drawing Board aol://4344:2783.B191046G.29426135.59329781 Labpuppy Drug Stock Commentary on EPS Reports (scroll down the page)labpuppy.com PFE News PFE Declares Regular Dividendbiz.yahoo.com Pfizer and Stryker Amend Howmedica Transactionbiz.yahoo.com V News Viagra sales in 6 months are four times higher than the combined sales of Evista and Propecia in 9 months.
