Novo-Nordisk (NVO)

Global leader. Recently became Europe's most valuable company by market cap. Diabetes and obesity drugs. Weight loss drug data showing positive cardiac effects as well. Raised guidance to 38% sales growth this year, with operating profit near 46% on the top end. Obesity treatment projected to move from 1M to 48M users by 2030.

Share price above its moving averages, beating S&P, 25% earnings growth rate forecast. Yield is 0.89%.

The largest company in Scandinavia. There is and will be lots of competition in weight-loss drugs. NVO has made a fortune through this drug, but their margins will shrink over time as competitors come. If you own this already, take profits, but don't expect NVO to double again.

Good job marketing Ozempic, taking the US and other countries by storm. Could be a $100B drug class for all participants. Significant weight loss, kidney and heart benefits. Always going to be side effects. Because of its runup, start with a 1/2 position, and then add on any weakness.

He strongly disagrees with some analysts who say that the new weight-loss drugs won't move the needles of their company stocks. He expects huge demand for these drugs to battle diabetes, which would prevent many other diseases. He sees a lot of runway ahead for LLY and Novo Nordisk.

Good chart which is indicating momentum. Would recommend buying. 

It has had positive momentum but don't chase it. Two of its drugs are leaders in the space but we don't know the long term effects of these drugs. There are competing products being developed in the weight loss space.

Recent drug releases have been good for share price appreciation. Currently valued highly. Would wait for share price to fall before investing. Not a good time to buy.

Is one of the biggest producers of insulin. Also, now have a hit drug to treat obesity. It's no secret that Western countries have obesity problems. However, a lot of promise has been built in the valuation, based on this drug.

All such drug stocks are going down (oversold) due to inventory worries. But he likes this now.

They stumbled into the hit drug, Ozempic to treat obesity. Nobody knows the long-term effect of this drug yet, but sales are through the roof. NOVO now faces a lot of competition in weight-loss drugs. If you've made a big profit, take profits. 

Diabetes is not going away. Obesity has made its latest drug popular. Have to ask what are the side effects? Trading at 34-35x forward PE, with a 25%+ growth rate. PEG of 1.6x is not cheap, but not expensive. Overbought. He'd like to see it at the 50- or 200-day MA, around $170-175.

Both companies are leaders in the diabetes market which is one of the fastest growing areas. Although Eli Lilly is more well rounded he has owned Novo for many years. They are both in a good spot in developing drugs for Obesity - the question is will the insurance companies cover these drugs since Obesity is not a disease.

Benefitting from weight-loss drug, which will drive the stock for a long time. A massive market. It's gone up a lot, so you'll probably see a pullback. Insurance companies should love the health benefits and eventually cover the cost.

Are in the news with a new drug. He's owned this for nearly 20 years. They continue to grow free cash flow. Are adept at producing insulin, which is seeing growing demand due to global obesity. They have invested heavily in R&D, which yielded this new weight-loss drug which is doing well.
