▼ + stars: | 2024-07-26 | by ( Weizhen Tan | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Weight loss drugs have drawn investor interest and shaken up other sectors in the past year or so. Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly were two early winners of this trend, as their drugs dominate the weight loss drug market. Yuri Khodjamirian, fund manager at Tema ETFs, said both companies are a "very powerful duopoly." They're a lot more risky than the bigger ones who already have drugs on the market," Khodjamirian said. Tema ETFs offers actively managed exchange-traded funds, with a focus on health care and life sciences.

Shares of Viking Therapeutics jumped more than 30% on Thursday after the biotech company a day earlier announced plans to advance its experimental weight loss injection into a late-stage trial earlier than expected. Viking is one of several small and large drugmakers hoping to compete in the space against Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly , whose weight loss and diabetes GLP-1s have skyrocketed in demand over the last two years. During the call, Lian added that Viking expects to test VK2735 as a monthly injection in a future study. Viking Therapeutics' drug promotes weight loss by targeting a GLP-1 and another hormone called GIP. That pill caused 3.3% weight loss when compared to a placebo in an early-stage trial.

"They are spending, but they're being more particular than they were before in terms of what they're spending on," she added. "As more consumers shift their meal preferences to eating at home as opposed to eating out, that could provide a catalyst to lift these stocks valuations," he wrote.
