Pfizer, Drug Giant

Sign on building on 42nd Street says it is Pfizer's International HQ... I don't know if this is true anymore.

Pfizer seems to keep shifting its operations all over the place.

From Wikipedia:

Pfizer Incorporated (NYSE: PFE; English pronunciation: /ˈfaɪzər/) is a global pharmaceutical company, ranking number one in sales in the world. The company is based in New York City, with its research headquarters in Groton, Connecticut. It produces Lipitor (atorvastatin, used to lower blood cholesterol); the neuropathic pain/fibromyalgia drug Lyrica (pregabalin); the oral antifungal medication Diflucan (fluconazole), the antibiotic Zithromax (azithromycin), Viagra (sildenafil) for erectile dysfunction, and the anti-inflammatory Celebrex (celecoxib) (also known as Celebra in some countries outside the USA and Canada, mainly in South America). Its headquarters are in Midtown Manhattan, New York City.^[2]

Pfizer's shares were made a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average on April 8, 2004.^[3]

Pfizer pleaded guilty in 2009 to the largest health care fraud in U.S. history and received the largest criminal penalty ever levied for illegal marketing of four of its drugs. Called a repeat offender, this was Pfizer's fourth such settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice in the previous ten years.^[4][5] On January 26, 2009, Pfizer agreed to buy pharmaceutical giant Wyeth for US$68 billion, a deal financed with cash, shares and loans.^[6] The deal was completed on October 15, 2009.
