what happened

Newsmetry API reports that RBC Capital reiterated its Outperform rating on Eli Lilly and kept a $1500 price target. The target represents implied upside of 27.2% from the Oct. 9 close of $1179.27. The analyst note highlighted Eli Lilly’s strong position in the international obesity-treatment market, where Mounjaro has reached a 55% share. RBC Capital also cited the potential of Foundayo, continued growth in the incretin portfolio and a possible increase in company guidance.

Newsmetry API also reported that RBC Capital maintained an Outperform rating on AEVEX with a $26 price target. The target implies 77.7% upside from the Oct. 9 closing price of $14.63. The note pointed to $175 million in funded order activity during 3Q26, as well as AEVEX’s mature product portfolio, expanding production capacity and acquisition of BlackSea. RBC Capital said these factors support the company’s position in defense technology, despite concerns about future revenue from Ukraine-related contracts.
