Might there be a more fundamental reason for NVS' slide? Seems to me I've seen some negative comments about their pipeline, but can't now remember the source.

NVS had a pipeline setback on NVA237/QVA149 for COPD, but it happened more than a month ago (#msg-68424624) and was unsurprising (see prologue of #msg-64761738). Also, the SOM230 NDA for Cushing’s disease was withdrawn in October (#msg-68418660), but this is a minor product candidate.

All told, I don’t think the under-performance of NVS’ share price in recent months can be attributed to the drug pipeline.
