I see that $JNJstock is already down 9% this year and the stock hasn't risen much in the last 5 years. I've never been interested in this company and never invested in it, but I'm glad for that.

What do you think of $JNJ?

The $JNJ stock makes no sense to me. I'd rather invest in other companies.

Agreed, do you have any stocks on the watchlist now?

The stocks in this sector are pretty beat up right now, I have nothing there either and I'm only pushed by $CVS so I'm just watching. I'm generally not that familiar with the healthcare sector after the change in office and am waiting to see how it shakes out and settles down a bit.

I see. Well, I'm waiting now, too. I'd like to sell CVS, but probably when I get into profit with the position. Right now I'm just thinking about $NVO.

The stock is not growing at all and the performance is lousy and the dividend is not very high either. I don't invest in companies like that.

Exactly, especially the performance in the last couple of years has been really lousy. Do you have any other stocks in this sector?

For a couple of years I had JNJ in my portfolio as a "security" but when I started investing in the index again I had no reason to leave it there. Generally, I have left the whole farm sector because I have no expertise there, which is very difficult to get from commonly available materials.

I get it, it's true that it's really hard to understand in certain areas. Well, I think the index is a much better choice if we look at the "growth" $JNJ for comparison 😃

I have a few stocks in my portfolio, but it's true that the profit there is very small and I wouldn't buy their stock again.

I'd probably have sold it by now. The performance really scares me.
