BMO Capital thinks Pfizer (PFE) investors should consider participating in the Zoetis (ZTS) exchange as they have the opportunity to own Zoetis at around $29.40-$29.70 per share, which is 15% below BMO's valuation of $34 per share. Further, BMO thinks there is strong support for Zoetis below $30, which the firm feels lowers downside risk. BMO recommends that Pfizer investors tender around 20% of their shares into the exchange, noting that with the offer likely being oversubscribed, not all tendered shares will be converted to Zoetis. | | | June 18, 2013 | | 10:17 EDT | | LLY | Lilly puts active on FDA says investigating two deaths after Zyprexa injections
