The move comes as the administration pushes to tie US drug prices more closely to lower costs overseas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-7hmkaz\">Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE:BMY) was part of that group and one of the most notable commitments came from the company, as it said that it will provide Eliquis, its blockbuster blood thinner and most prescribed drug, free of charge to Medicaid patients. The agreement fits with the company\u2019s broader effort to improve cardiovascular care, expand patient access, and work with policymakers to reduce costs for Americans, without undercutting long-term innovation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-7hmkaz\">A week earlier, on December 12, Morgan Stanley raised its price target on Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE:BMY) to $37 from $36.

As that pressure eases, attention may shift back to company fundamentals. That\u2019s where stock selection could start to matter more again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-7hmkaz\">Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE:BMY) operates globally and focuses on developing medicines for serious diseases.
