Earnings heat up as Pfizer got a much-needed Q3 beat amidst criticism from activist investor Starboard Value. Novartis and Sanofi are among others that have outpaced Wall Street expectations this quarter, as Eli Lilly, Merck, AbbVie, Amgen, Biogen, GSK, Bristol Myers Squibb and Takeda are all reporting today and tomorrow.
The past week has also seen a pack of deals, with AbbVie’s $1.4 billion buy of Aliada Therapeutics, Roche’s potential $1 billion deal with Dyno Therapeutics and Novartis’ up to $2.1 billion commitment to Monte Rosa’s molecular glue degraders.
