Classic, classic switch campaign

Today I bought some BMY because of its low price and news of its cancer drug versus Merck's cancer drug. 

Portfolio of PAF on 26JAN2017

VZ     1,700

T      24,630

GSK       730

BMY 100

_______________

            27,160

total share-wealth-units last reported which was 20DEC2016 was 27,160 
and total share-wealth-units today 27,160

real-estate land 3APR03 of 1 lot $16,500.
real-estate land Sept05 another lot $75,000.

Today, I sold 100 shares of VZ at 49.01 and with the proceeds bought 100 shares of BMY 47.01 per share.

The sell-off in BMY is far too large a sell-off. The application of Opdivo is far better than the Merck Keytruda application. If my memory serves correctly, Opdivo is administered by mouth while Keytruda is injected. But, do not hold me to that. Anyway, if true, most people like pill by mouth.

So this is a classic switch campaign, of wait for BMY to rise above either MRK or VZ.

And in the case of GSK, wait till it rises above T.

Sorry, both are intravenous injection, and it looks as though Keytruda is easier than Opdiva, one is every 3 weeks, other 2 weeks.

Yes, classic classic switch, only today I wish I had bought more of BMY, because today, 14FEB that BMY is up 1.68 to 53.71 on buyout rumors, while VZ is in the doldrums of 48.20

real-estate land 3APR03 of 1 lot $18,000.
real-estate land Sept05 another lot $75,000.
Today, I sold 100 shares of VZ at 49.01 and with the proceeds bought 100 shares of BMY 47.01 per share.
Today with excess cash, I bought 100 shares of VZ at 48.20. Comparing that to sell VZ on 26JAN for 49.01. Now I could have sold my BMY and gotten 110 VZ for them, and made the switch complete, but I think BMY is going much higher. I think many pharma companies want as big a stake as possible in the immuno cancer therapies.
