ABT — LONG The author believes the recent earnings selloff in Abbott Laboratories is an overreaction, as a slight top-line miss does not change the company's wide moat and strong earnings beat. He cites personal use of their products and a 13x PE as reasons he likes the price here. The main risk implied is that the market may continue to punish the stock despite fundamentals.

I think the earnings sell off is an overreaction. A slight top line miss doesn’t really change the fact that this company has wide moat with strong earnings beat. My baby son use their products and I love the name. I like the price here with a 13x PE.
