Why I Love This Stock |

When you see Gilead (GILD), Coca-Cola (KO), Abbott Laboratories (ABT) and Merck (MRK) down on this otherwise perfect day, you have to recognize that consistency is so out of favor as to make safety be the killer -- the true generator of underperformance. |

I think the soft-goods rotation is more of a statement about the dollar than anything else -- we hit seven-week lows yesterday on our currency. That could be the answer to the conundrum about how we could be in "recovery" mode and yet still have the rally by the likes of Coke (KO), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), Merck (MRK) and Pfizer (PFE). |

On the downside, the losers tell a similar story, with defensive drug stocks like Pfizer (PFE) and Merck (MRK) both down heartily as investor switch gears into growth stocks again. |

Merck (MRK) has patent issues, and the new Supreme Court decision makes its products, particularly its vaccines, a free-fire zone. Also, this is the company that could be one of the most hurt by Obama's pitting of drug companies against each other to get a great price for the government. Chop a multiple point off it and cut earnings by a quarter, and let's call it $15. |

Just bad luck!!! Stay away!!! Lose cash everytime! Alternative info: I hold a $20 straddle 4 leg up and 2 down to cover. I placed the trade prior to earnings day. It has worked ok so far. |
