More From Damien Conover

The FDA provided emergency use authorization, or EUA, for Pfizer and partner BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine BNT162b2 on Dec. 11. However, we are not changing our fair value for either Pfizer or BioNTech as the EUA was largely expected.
Damien Conover, CFA

With the vaccine’s efficacy over 90% and no major safety issues observed, we believe Pfizer and BioNTech's vaccine is set up for emergency use in late 2020, followed by full approval in 2021 pending supportive final data.
Damien Conover, CFA

We continue to view Merck as undervalued, with the market not fully appreciating the firm’s strong immuno-oncology platform.
Damien Conover, CFA

We don’t expect these actions by President Trump to significantly affect our fair value estimates or moat ratings due to limited details, challenging implementation, and only minor impacts.
