Stock is a little high....

Solid company. But, with its low beta tough to expect it to outperform the S&P in an upturn.

HAS NOT MOVED AT ALL IN THE LAST FEW YEARS.

JNJ does great with the weak dollar and right now the dollar is going up.

People keep chasing yield, chasing safety, chasing this and that. Following the herd doesn't work. This didn't get beaten down enough to beat the markets eventual recovery. The best time to buy this "recession proof" was beginning of 08. Still an excellent value play, though :)

This is a great company, I just don't think it will Outperform the market anytime soon. When the economy recovers, financials will lead the way, followed by oil/energy, retail and then the rest.
You will sleep good at night owning them, but you'll be sleeping on an old mattress because their short-term (2-4y) return will significantly lag the market.

When we're speaking in terms of decades, yes, JNJ will outperform. But when starting at or near the bottom of a market crash, the market simply has more ground to make up over the subsequent 5 year span. This happened after the '01 crash - Dow outperformed JNJ by about 30% through '07 - and I'm betting it will happen again.

Stock has not gone down, or up, significantly in a long time. A safe bet, but not a super-performer.

Cant stop the rain. Buy back in maybe in a few months. Sell and wait.

No way this company is worth 200 billion.
Can you people really grasp this figure. When the PE ratio reaches 14 then I'll think of closing my position.
Recs
S&P currently has more upside for the next twelve months. Money inflows will go to other segments, not JNJ.

Believe that republicians will regain control of the white house and congress, making the economy even tighter, which should reduce the sizes of households, JNJ services mostly households, causing a drop.

Splitting maybe?

Bandaid business will suffer due to lack of cuts.

While J & J has a lot of products, it's quality if flawed. The commericals to take tylenol only as directed, to help deflect lawsuits because tylenol is the easiest way to kill a liver in a day is getting to be more well known. My friend's little sister died 4./10/08 after taking 8 tylenol PM's not realizing the active ingredient would cause liver failure in 24 hours.
