  • Market Jitters on Lilly Earnings, Hopeful Signs for Housing Stocks
    February 3, 2026, 3:57 PM EST. Stocks dipped Tuesday as tech selloff pressured the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, with Nvidia down over 3%, despite CEO Jensen Huang dismissing rift rumors with OpenAI. Eli Lilly shares fell nearly 4% ahead of earnings, weighed by rival Novo Nordisk's poor 2026 sales and profit forecast amid U.S. price pressures and rising competition. Investors question if Lilly's volume growth from expanded patient access will offset declining drug prices. Meanwhile, housing stocks like Lennar and Taylor Morrison rallied on reports of a private investor-backed plan to increase entry-level home affordability, though the Trump administration has no active involvement, indicating early-stage talks. The market balances caution on pharma earnings with cautious optimism on housing initiatives.
