About Johnson & Johnson (JNJ)
Johnson & Johnson is one of the largest healthcare companies in the world, with two main businesses: pharmaceuticals (its largest source of revenue) and medical devices (the MedTech area, such as implants and surgical equipment). In 2023 it spun off its consumer-products business (band-aids, shampoos), which became a separate company called Kenvue.
It trades on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the ticker JNJ and is part of the S&P 500 and Dow Jones indices. It is a defensive stock and one of the "dividend kings", having raised its dividend for more than 60 years in a row. Because it sells healthcare, it tends to swing less than the market average, but it faces lawsuits and the loss of patents on important drugs.
