About Pfizer (PFE)
Pfizer Inc. (PFE) is one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world, with medicines and vaccines across areas such as oncology, immunology, vaccines and rare diseases. It gained huge visibility with its COVID-19 vaccine, whose revenue surged in 2021-2022 and then fell back sharply in the following years.
It trades on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the ticker PFE and is part of the S&P 500. It is often seen as a defensive dividend stock, but the share price has been essentially flat over the past decade as the market absorbed the decline in COVID-19 revenue.
