The company's stock seems undervalued to me, so I'm considering buying it, what's your opinion of the company?
I already have some in my portfolio and I'm thinking of adding some
I have, and I see it very similarly to others, I believe in the company and I believe in growth. Even if some extra growth doesn't come, I get a nice dividend. I've been buying quite a bit below $70 and if the stock gets there again I might overbuy.
$CVS-0.1% makes up my 6th largest position in the portfolio, with an average purchase of $69. I'm happy here, I think it's a strong company in the industry, it's always trying to move somewhere, it has interesting acquisitions, and the dividend is nice too. If it looks below $70 again, I'd be overbought 😊.
