๐ $ABBV vs. $PFE: Which Healthcare Giant Wins in 2026?
After reviewing both companies, I lean toward AbbVie ($ABBV) as the stronger long-term investment.
โ Revenue continues to grow, driven by blockbuster drugs like Skyrizi and Rinvoq, successfully offsetting Humira's patent cliff.
โ Strong free cash flow generation supports both innovation and shareholder returns.
โ Attractive dividend combined with a more predictable growth trajectory.
While Pfizer ($PFE) offers a higher yield and trades at a cheaper valuation, the market remains concerned about post-pandemic growth, upcoming patent expirations, and pipeline execution risks.
My view:
๐ AbbVie = Quality + Growth + Income
๐ Pfizer = Value + Turnaround Potential + Higher Risk
For long-term investors seeking a balance between capital appreciation and dividend income, AbbVie appears to offer the more compelling risk/reward profile today.
What's your pick for the next 3-5 years: $ABBV or $PFE?

๐ Missed Nvidia? Don't overlook $CPNG.
While investors chase AI giants like $NVDA and $MU, Coupang is quietly building one of the most underappreciated AI growth stories in the market.
โ Dominates South Korea's e-commerce market with 24M+ active customers
โ Deploying AI across logistics, robotics, advertising, fintech, and food delivery
โ Expanding aggressively into Taiwan with triple-digit revenue growth
โ Building its own AI infrastructure through Coupang Intelligent Cloud (CIC)
What makes this interesting is valuation.
$CPNG generated roughly $35B in revenue over the last 12 months while trading at a market cap of just ~$30B. If management continues executing and AI-driven efficiencies improve margins, the stock could be significantly undervalued relative to its long-term potential.
Sometimes the biggest opportunities aren't the AI companies selling chips โ they're the companies using AI to transform entire business models.
$CPNG is one AI stock I'm watching closely for the next 3โ5 years.

I continue to see AI infrastructure as one of the strongest long-term investment themes of this decade. While $NVDA still dominates the market, the next phase of AI growth is expanding beyond training models into inference, enterprise AI, and autonomous agents โ creating major opportunities for companies like $AMD and $AVGO.
At this point, I donโt think you can go wrong owning any of these three AI stocks, and I would consider all three strong long-term buys. Nvidia remains the industry leader, Broadcom continues benefiting from rising demand for custom AI chips and networking infrastructure, but AMD may currently offer the most compelling growth upside and risk/reward profile for investors focused on the next stage of the AI cycle.
The AI race is far from over โ in many ways, itโs only just getting started. ๐
TERM OF THE DAY: TREND ๐
A trend is the direction a stock is moving over time.
Stocks can move:
โข Up
โข Down
โข Sideways
Understanding the trend helps traders know what the market is doing.
โ
UPTREND ๐
An uptrend means the stock keeps moving HIGHER over time.
The stock makes:
โข Higher highs
โข Higher lows
Example ๐
A stock moves:
$100 โ $110 โ $120 โ $130
Buyers are in control.
This is called an UPTREND.
โ
DOWNTREND ๐
A downtrend means the stock keeps moving LOWER over time.
The stock makes:
โข Lower highs
โข Lower lows
Example ๐
A stock moves:
$150 โ $140 โ $130 โ $120
Sellers are in control.
This is called a DOWNTREND.
โ
SIDEWAYS MARKET โ๏ธ
A sideways market means the stock is NOT moving much up or down.
The price stays stuck in a range.
Example ๐
A stock keeps bouncing between:
$95 and $100
No strong buyers or sellers are in control.
This is called a SIDEWAYS MARKET.
โ
Simple way to remember it ๐
๐ Uptrend = Prices climbing higher
๐ Downtrend = Prices moving lower
โ๏ธ Sideways = Prices moving sideways in a range
Learning trends is important because traders want to trade WITH the market direction, not against it.

Took the Q down to the brand new HK campus to attend an excellent seminar by Assoc. Director @kgbeaumont on spatial transcriptomics research happening @IcahnMountSinai
Excited to think about applying this tech in the @taliaswartz lab! Watch this space ๐
The American Physician Scientist Association (APSA) and the Student National Medical Association (SNMA) have partnered to host an engaging virtual panel of MD-PhDs - from students to faculty - to offer their perspectives on fulfilling the physician-scientist training pathway.
Addressing health inequities requires us to collect and assess our available data. Thus, we must prioritize data disaggregation to accurately identify existing disparities. Check out our manuscript (@PharmGradWish) that elaborates on this topic h : https://t.co/rw91MebeU1
How many of us have an issue with saying 'no' to job opportunities and commitments? I know I do!! @taliaswartz and I have a new paper that provides recommendations for academic decision-making. https://t.co/aM9TrN4m8C
NEW: @NIH revises its research grant review process to improve focus on scientific merit and reduce reputational bias. The framework will be implemented for applications submitted on or after Jan. 25, 2025. ๐ฐ๐ปhttps://t.co/VdNJQSb17U #NIH#AcademicChatter
This is an incredibly important discussion. A must-read for those engaged in physician-scientist training. It was led by a brilliant physician-scientist, mom, and friend - proud to know ya'. Congrats to Jansen et al.
#Motherhood has been both incredibly challenging&rewarding. Professionally, it has improved my efficiency, patience, ability to adapt, prioritize, and empathize. However, itโs impossible to ignore the sig costs despite my privileges. We must work toward shifting from OR to AND.
