Wondering if buying stock in Roche or other pharma would be a good idea right now?

Pharma companies have been a good bet for quite some time. They have extremely high profit margins, and they are constantly coming out with new drugs. And if they don't, they are frequently buyout targets.

I can't really comment on the particulars of the financial statements about the companies in particular, but I do think pharmaceuticals are generally a good long term investment (people are always going to get sick!)

Maybe. This weeks issue of Business Week noted that GlaxoSmith was diversifying by buying small companies that had strong sales in steady markets like the acne business. None of us are getting any younger, so drug sales are bound to increase at least until the baby boomer generation passes.
