Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly both declined significantly in the last months. This was mainly caused by efficacy uncertainty, further competition and political headwinds. Despite the sell-offs, I currently think just one of the two is a compelling buy, even offering upside potential of up to 77%.
Dan Deming considers Friday's trading action after Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech "remarkable."
