Hims & Hers (HIMS) stock slides premarket as FDA targets “copycat drugs” over $49 Wegovy pill

Hims & Hers (HIMS) stock slides premarket as FDA targets “copycat drugs” over $49 Wegovy pill

Shares of Hims & Hers Health dropped 3.8% to $23.48 in premarket trading on Friday. The slide came after FDA Commissioner Marty Makary warned the agency would act quickly against firms mass-marketing “illegal copycat drugs.” The stock had already fallen 3.8% on Thursday and plunged nearly 10% after hours, following Makary’s post on X stating, “The FDA cannot verify the quality, safety, or effectiveness of non-approved drugs.” His comments came after Hims introduced a compounded version of Novo Nordisk’s Wegovy weight-loss medication.

Johnson & Johnson stock price holds near $238 after-hours as Supreme Court talc case move hits

Johnson & Johnson shares jumped about 1.4% Thursday, then held steady after hours. The move came as the company asked the U.S. Supreme Court to weigh in on whether a shareholder lawsuit accusing it of misleading statements about talc safety can move forward as a class action. The petition seeks clarification on the court’s 2021 Goldman Sachs ruling, focusing on how “price impact” — whether alleged falsehoods affected stock prices — factors into certifying investor groups. JNJ last changed hands at $237.79, after trading between $233.33 and $240.00 during regular hours.
