Eli Lilly could continue to dominate the weight-loss market thanks to medicines like Foundayo and retatrutide. The company's latest approval strengthens its diabetes portfolio.

Eli Lilly spent most of its 150-year history as a quiet insulin maker before a single drug reshuffled the entire obesity market and turned a modest stake into a fortune that left the S&P 500 in the dust.

The study used Novo Nordisk's semaglutide to arrive at its results. The news should only cause the market for GLP-1 drugs to grow faster.

The sale has nothing to do with the stock's potential, however. And Lilly remains well positioned to continue winning the GLP-1 race.

Shares of AbbVie, Eli Lilly and Gilead Sciences are trading at or near record highs.

Eli Lilly stock today trades above $1,160 and has reached record highs this year. The pharma giant is benefiting from the GLP-1 drug boom.
