In spite of pretty weak top-line results, pharma companies like Merck (NYSE:MRK), Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), and Bristol-Myers (NYSE:BMY) have benefited from a relatively bullish sentiment on healthcare stocks. That sentiment may be petering out, though, and that could make it harder for Merck's stock to outperform. I believe that this company's pipeline strategy (significant quantity, but not necessarily many stars) leads to investors underestimating its potential, but I wouldn't go so far as to think it's a tremendously cheap stock today.
