When Dave Ricks became chief executive officer of Eli Lilly & Co. in 2017, he was facing an industry under siege. Americans held drug companies in lower esteem than airlines, law firms and even the federal government. President Donald Trump, then starting his first term, was excoriating them for their high prices. A mounting number of reports showed that soaring costs were even forcing some diabetics to ration insulin. Ricks, the 11th CEO in Lilly's 150-year history, concedes that one was a public-relations nightmare. Almost a decade later, the mood at Lilly has shifted dramatically. The company's hit diabetes shot, Mounjaro, and obesity shot, Zepbound, have transformed its fortunes and, in many ways, its public image. We speak with Madison Muller, Bloomberg News Healthcare Reporter, for a closer look.

Saturna Capital Chief Investment Officer Scott Klimo joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the Saturna Global Equity ETF, the principles of Shariah-compliant investing, and how the rapid growth of artificial intelligence is reshaping valuations and opportunities across global markets. Klimo explained that the actively managed ETF applies Islamic investment guidelines that exclude sectors such as conventional banking, insurance, gambling, tobacco, alcohol, and weapons. In addition to those sector screens, the strategy also emphasizes companies with low debt levels, a factor Klimo said can signal strong cash generation, disciplined capital allocation, and durable business models. The conversation also focused on the impact of AI on technology investing. Klimo noted that major technology companies such as Alphabet, Amazon, and Microsoft are evolving from traditionally asset-light businesses into far more capital-intensive operators as they commit massive sums to AI infrastructure, data centers, and compute capacity. Beyond the large-cap AI leaders, Klimo highlighted a broader group of companies benefiting from the AI buildout, including ASML, Taiwan Semiconductor, Samsung Electronics, and Japan’s Fujikura, all of which play important roles in chip manufacturing, semiconductor equipment, and data-center connectivity. The discussion also touched on the pharmaceutical sector, where Klimo sees long-term value despite recent market weakness. He said healthcare companies can provide portfolio balance and defensive characteristics, even as investors continue to weigh regulatory uncertainty and shifting sentiment toward the sector. Looking at the broader market backdrop, Klimo pointed to continued geopolitical uncertainty, inflation trends, and energy prices as important factors to monitor. At the same time, he said he remains generally constructive on the market outlook, supported by resilient corporate earnings and the long-term productivity gains expected from AI adoption. #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews #SaturnaCapital #ShariahInvesting #ArtificialIntelligence #ETFInvesting #GlobalEquities #TechInvesting #AIInfrastructure #Semiconductors #HealthcareStocks #MarketOutlook
