Well they are getting a shaking a bit because of the uncertainty about the future and that is how the market prices stocks of course.
UNH is doing fine, in fact over the last 5 yrs its up like 300%, BMY over 5 yr is also up more than the market, over 100%. MRK is at a 52 week high and is up 50% in 5 yrs..they are struggling with growth and pipeline and they are not cheap up here IMO..AGN is for sure off their historic high, but look at a 5 yr chart it is still up over 300%.
I dont know how people can buy on the short term into these massive movers and then wonder what happened when they fall back a bit. I probably would not have purchased any of these because a year ago what value was there given the run they all had over a 5 yr period? I would probably draw some retracement lines and purchase on pullbacks vs blindly buy, but I am conservative for sure.
I dont like much in this market right now, everything is priced to FED and Trump perfection...prices for most everything but energy are way way way inflated.

I've actually held these stocks for almost 2 years now. I've been retired for 4 years now and really don't need any of my investment money. This is all for my kids and grandkids inheritance.
I'm thinking along these lines now after I get my year end dividends and capital gains to sell some and write the losses off on taxes.
So with that said, my plan is to sell all of AGN (take the loss).
Keep all of UNH, sell half of MRK & BMY. (about 300k).
I think I need to diversify and play a little more conservative with the legacy.

Jr, if you're still around in this thread , you'll likely do just fine if you hang onto those stocks... your 'kids' have a very long time horizon... and they will thank you for it later if you have done so..
A bit turbulent right now... but it will pay off later..
