Q: I heard that AMGN has a potential diabetes/weight loss drug similar to LLY and NVO. I think the AMGN drug is behind the other two and is in phase 2 trial. Do you have any background/guess on whether the AMGN drug can turn out as good as the others? What do you think of AMGN overall vs LLY and NVO?

Thank you,
Mike

Q: This period of seasonal weakness is a great time for some early Christmas shopping. I sold a part position in NVO a while ago and am looking to reinvest proceeds to increase my health care holdings.

Considering current valuations, what would you recommend as a good complement to expand and diversify?

Thanks in advance.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Are you able to provide an update on Eli Lilly which had a big move today? Would you continue to recommend it as a buy even after the price gain today?

Comparing it to Lantheus and Perion (very different industries and company size) which one do you feel more bullish on for a longer term hold?

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: One gets weary of the seemingly endless legal battles that JNJ continues to suffer. I have held on to shares assuming all sides would surely give in to battle-fatigue. My assumption looks wrong, especially after yet another defeat by JNJ on Friday July 28. Worth holding or move on? As always, your opinion backed by your own reasoning would be much appreciated. If you think best trim or sell, what dividend payer in health care would you favor today (US only).
