Other comments (summarized by me):

Goldman - (1) I previously posted primary bear case based mostly on sustainability; (2) out year per share increases are due to lower share counts from share repurchases: (3) models cost of all-oral at $95,000; (4) suggests stocking at $400M; (5) target $65

Credit Swisse - (1) likely price of all-oral at $100K for 8 week regimen; (2) suggest a 65% steady state market share for GILD; (3) breaks down HCV '14 sales into $7.6B for Sovaldi and $1.5B for all-oral; (4) target $110

Wells Fargo - (1) Thinks Medicaid share will go up during year, so selling price per RX will go down; (2) expects more warehousing of milder patients until all-oral available; (3) think GILD will price all-oral close to parity with Sovaldi with 12 week price at $90-100K; (4) breaks down '14 sales into $8.6B US, $.7B Europe, and .1B int'l; (5) target $87-$91

Will give my own comments later after thinking about it more - probably tomorrow with one more small data point
