Shares of obesity drugmaker Eli Lilly fell more than 4% on Friday, extending a roughly 3% slide in Thursday's session. Ozempic is the posterchild of the fast-growing GLP-1 class, in which Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly are currently the two dominant players. Bottom line Eli Lilly has been our favorite drug stock for years thanks to its stellar pipeline led by GLP-1s. But, at this point, Kennedy's nomination requires us to be more cautious on Eli Lilly in the near term. Eli Lilly and Company, Pharmaceutical company headquarters in Alcobendas, Madrid, Spain.

For nine years, the CFO role at Google and parent company Alphabet was held by Ruth Porat, who took a giant pay package in 2015 to leave Wall Street for Silicon Valley. "But I think any organization can always push a little further and I'll be looking at additional opportunities." During the Q&A portion of the call, Evercore ISI's Mark Mahaney asked, "As you're coming in looking at this fresh, is it clear to you there are a lot of newfound cost efficiencies or ongoing cost efficiencies?" The new CFO said one way Google can find additional efficiencies is by using AI "within our own processes and how we get work done." WATCH: Google search benefiting from generative AI

One of the world's most valuable drug manufacturers by market capitalization reported its second-quarter earnings results Thursday, and they were impressive. Zepbound was approved Nov. 8 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a treatment for weight management and obesity, according to Eli Lilly. In its first full quarter in the U.S. market, Zepbound brought in $517.4 million in revenue, Eli Lilly reported in April. "We just see unbelievable demand, and we're not even trying that hard to promote this drug," Eli Lilly CEO David Ricks told CNBC during a "Squawk Box" interview Thursday. And drug manufacturers such as Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk, the pharmaceutical company that makes Ozempic and Wegovy, are racing to meet that demand.

☆ Weight loss drug Zepbound may help people with obstructive sleep apnea, drugmaker says
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-17 | by ( Jen Christensen | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

CNN —Zepbound, a popular weight loss drug, also seems to help people with obstructive sleep apnea, drugmaker Eli Lilly said Wednesday. Based on results from trials in people with sleep apnea, the company said it plans to submit the material to the US Food and Drug Administration to potentially expand the use of Zepbound for obstructive sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea is a disorder that causes people to briefly stop breathing while they are sleeping, sometimes several times an hour. While people are more at risk for obstructive sleep apnea as they get older, it often develops when people gain weight and have overweight or obesity. Some doctors have been prescribing the weekly injection off label to people with obstructive sleep apnea, and Lilly has been testing the drug for obstructive sleep apnea since June 2022.

In today's big story, we're looking at pharma companies' surging stocks and threatening tech darlings thanks to their weight-loss drugs. And it comes despite only 1% of US adults taking weight-loss drugs, according to Bank of America , which predicts that number could rise to 15% by 2035. Weight-loss drugs are also cutting more than just fat. For Wall Street, meanwhile, the equation is much simpler: Getting more people on weight-loss drugs boosts the economy. The trend, which will be powered by cash-rich mega-cap tech companies, is thanks to strong earnings growth, the bank said.

President Joe Biden's federal budget proposal would cap insulin prices at $35 per month for people with private insurance plans. Biden called on Congress in his State of the Union speech to finish the job and cap insulin at $35 a month for everybody.

About 40% of people with diabetes have private insurance while 5% are not insured, according to the American Diabetes Association. Some Republicans in Congress oppose to the move to cap insulin prices.

The Inflation Reduction Act capped insulin prices for Medicare beneficiaries at $35 per month but did not protect people with private insurance or who don't have coverage from higher prices. In President Joe Biden's State of the Union speech, he called on Congress to cap insulin prices at $35 a month for everyone. Lilly said it will cap out-of-pocket costs at $35 per month effectively immediately at certain retail pharmacies for people with private insurance. One in five people with diabetes who have private insurance pay more than $35 per month for insulin, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. Democrats in Congress had pushed to cap insulin at $35 per month last summer for people with private insurance, but Senate Republicans killed the measure.
