The recent drop in Novo Nordisk's stock price is attributed to several factors. A key issue is the company’s struggle to meet the surging demand for its weight-loss drugs, such as Wegovy. Although demand remains strong, investors are concerned about Novo Nordisk's ability to scale up production and deliveries, which is creating downward pressure on the stock.
Additionally, some recent financial results failed to meet Wall Street expectations. Despite revenue growth in key product categories, overall revenues in some reports came in below forecasts. This underperformance has contributed to a negative investor sentiment.
However, analysts emphasize that Novo Nordisk's core products remain in high demand, and the company has significant long-term growth potential if it addresses its supply chain and production challenges
