Johnson & Johnson in Transition Mode
Image Source: Johnson & Johnson. Shares of Johnson & Johnson have performed well since being added to both the simulated Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio and simulated Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio. We continue to be impressed with the depth of the clinical pipeline as Johnson & Johnson has an appealing mixture of mature and early-stage products that power the portfolio.

A Key Inflection Point for Gilead Sciences
Image Source: Gilead. We have closely followed events at Gilead Sciences for signs of an inflection point as we have long felt the market is myopically focused on the Hepatitis C franchise instead of cash flows. Our decision to add the idea to the simulated Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio and simulated Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio has played out very well as the share price remains locked in an uptrend.
