The thesis — published October 23, 2025
Eli Lilly blends stability with growth, led by obesity and Alzheimer's treatments. Recent U.S. news points to a larger Alzheimer's market, and cash-flow math suggests the stock may be priced too low. Sales have grown about 18% a year over five years. Shares look washed out but the bigger trend still leans upward. Over the next 0-3 months, a steady climb is plausible as demand is clear and investors favor durable growers.
Primary drivers
- Growing U.S. Alzheimer's market expands the potential customer base
- Strong and rising demand for its obesity medicines keeps sales building
- Stock looks washed out while the recent trend still tilts upward
- Solid business results with investor views that are not overly hot
