Top daily news
Pharmaceutical stocks showed significant gains on October 1, 2025, following a landmark agreement between the Trump administration and Pfizer. The deal exempts Pfizer from import tariffs for three years and introduces a discounted drug purchasing platform, TrumpRx, aimed at reducing consumer costs by bypassing middlemen. This move is expected to serve as a pricing model for other pharmaceutical companies.
Pharmaceutical stocks responded positively to the news:
- Pfizer (PFE) shares rose 13.9% over two days.
- AstraZeneca (AZN) surged 11.2%, reclaiming its position as the most valuable company on the London Stock Exchange.
- GSK and Hikma Pharmaceuticals saw increases of 6.2% and 3.5%, respectively.
Other major pharmaceutical companies, including Johnson & Johnson and Novartis, also experienced upward momentum, reflecting investor optimism about the potential for similar agreements with other firms.
This rally marks the strongest week for pharmaceutical stocks in 16 years, driven by both the Trump administration's pricing reforms and positive developments such as FDA approvals and strong quarterly earnings reports.
Investors are closely watching for potential follow-up agreements with other pharmaceutical companies, which could further influence market dynamics in the sector.
