Flying off the shelves: 💸

This type of drug has seen enormous popularity over the last year. While often used as a treatment for type 2 diabetes, its use as a weight loss drug has everyone talking. This product has been flying off shelves around the world at such a speed that some countries are running low on supplies, which just goes to show how popular this drug is.

Snapshot of the company: 📸
This is a solid company with a very long history, dating back to the 1920s when Nordisk Insulinlaboratorium started commercially producing insulin.
The value of Novo Nordisk hit a new record high in 2023. Since then, through a $16.5bn deal, Novo Nordisk has acquired three sites previously owned by pharma manufacturers Catalent in order to increase production. It seems they are feeling confident and aiming to scale - suggesting this could be a great time to invest.
