Analyst Highlights ‘Game Changer’ Catalyst for Eli Lilly (LLY)

Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) is one of the Top 10 Stocks Wall Street is Buzzing About These Days.

Talking about Morgan Stanley’s bullish call on Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY), Kevin Simpson, Capital Wealth Planning founder and CIO, said that he agrees with the call and thinks the company’s GLP-1 oral medication Orforglipron could be a “game changer.

“The catalyst, Frank, is if they can deliver an oral drug. And I believe that they will. This ORFO would be a game-changer 100%. If their orals are as effective or almost as effective as the injectables, then this is a catalyst and I couldn’t agree more with the call.”

Macquarie Large Cap Growth Fund stated the following regarding Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) in its Q1 2025 investor letter:

“The largest individual detractors from performance relative to the benchmark were not owning Meta Platforms, not owning Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY), and our position in Electronic Arts Inc. Eli Lilly stock recovered following a period of volatility in the second half of 2024 as investors digested the possibility of competition, sustained compliance for patients taking its weight-loss therapy, and side effects, among other threats that the valuation hadn’t reflected. The stock recovered some value in 1Q25, but we continue to be on the sidelines.”
