Q: What is your opinion of ABBV buying an experimental drug derived in the psychedelic space from private company Gilgamesh for 1.2B?. Do you think with some of these psychedelic companies now getting phase 2 and phase 3 trials wrapped up on their potential drug offerings that the psychedelic market might get some legs in the near future as the big pharma companies look for the next big thing. ? With these being very spec who would be you picks in the space for fun money?

Q: Hi there,

ABBV has been on a decent run since July. I assume their mostly positive quarterly report indicating lots of activity in their drug pipeline is one reason plus healthcare seems to be showing a bit of life.

How do you see it’s valuation is it an ADD/BUY in a diversified portfolio for growth and income?

Q: I am mostly content with my health care stocks with the exception of MDT. It has been essentially flat since about 2016 except for the dividend. It did peak around 2022 but has fallen down to previous levels.
What do you think of the longer term for MDT?
Would you make any other changes for slow but reliable growth and higher end of dividends.
As always, thank you for the great service.
