Merck stock up-Negative posters check your facts

Quote
The elephant in the room here is that MRK stock is not just Merck. It is Schering and, to a lesser extent, Lebanon as well. Schering merged with Organon just before it was poised to go public and not long before Merck bought them out.

If you consider Legacy Merck's pre- merger stock price, Legacy Shering's pre- merger stock price and the estimated IPO price Organon may have commanded, you'll see that any portion at all from L-SP and Organon's valuation has been effectively removed from the current MRK price - AND MRK has also declined in value. Think about that. ALL of the market value of two other large-scale, multinational companies has gone to ZERO within 2-4 years.

As an optimist I guess you could say that all the money that will be gone is but I don't think you can do it with a straight face.
 




I think post 10 was correct. Who is getting layed-off and why? Are they just going to keep the brown-nosers and butt kissers? We seem to have a history of getting rid or forcing out the people who do work.
 
















R&D has gone downhill quick. I think all we have are lab technicians. The best part is they call themselves scientists. It's like someone from QA or QC calling themselves scientists. They look at numbers all day. If it's in this range, pass it. If it's out of this range, pass it anyway. If it kills people, we will worry about that later.
 




We stopped hiring quality scientists about 15 years ago. SP never hired quality scientists period. The only way to get a pipeline is by buying another company that does have quality scientists and a real pipeline.
