    Royalty Pharma Owns a Piece of 16 Blockbuster Drugs -- Is the Stock a Buy?

    Royalty Pharma (RPRX) offers investors diversified exposure to blockbuster drugs through a unique royalty-based investment model. With strong returns on invested capital (14.9% average ROIC), ownership in 16 blockbuster drugs, and analyst forecasts suggesting significant multiple expansion potential, the stock appears undervalued despite a 50% year-to-date surge. However, risks include share dilution and increasing competition in the pharma royalty space.

    18 of 21 Analysts Still Think Alnylam Stock Is a Buy. Here's Why They're Right.

    Despite being down 35% year-to-date, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals has rebounded 25% since late July and maintains strong analyst support with 18 of 21 analysts rating it as a buy or strong buy. The stock's attractive valuation (19.7x forward earnings, 0.32 PEG ratio) and favorable market dynamics—including reduced competition from a failed rival drug and extended patent protection for Pfizer's competing therapy—support the bullish outlook. However, investors should monitor demand normalization for Amvuttra and potential developments from the failed Wainua trial.
