Turning $4.66 into $43.84. That’s what Pfizer investors experienced from April 1994 to April 1999, with a massive 1000% return.
Investors faced a downturn as Pfizer’s stock dropped 75% from $46.69 in July 2000 to $11.64 in February 2009 amid an economic recession.
Recovery followed, reaching $61.71 in December 2021 – driven by new drugs and COVID-19 vaccine development.
However, a recent slide saw shares drop from $58 in Jan ’20 to $27 in Jan ’24 – halving investor wealth.
The lesson from this rollercoaster movement of Pfizer’s share is that one must be cautious when investing in the pharmaceutical industry, considering its volatility and external factors, as evidenced by the impact of COVID-19.
