Two weeks ago, I told readers that Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) was one of my top picks during our 2025 MTA forecast call. I also bought shares myself.

And last week, I sent out a special alert to ALL Monument Traders Alliance members to sell LLY.

If you haven’t gone so, I recommend that you do.

The shares are up over $70 in just that short period of time. That’s $70 in just over a week!

Now, it could go higher from here, but I think the chances are just as good that it goes lower and gives us a second chance. So I do not want to give up a $70 move.

LLY is the company behind the most successful weight loss drugs in history. And the shares have been on a tear ever since the first product hit the market.

However, as a result, the earnings multiple has soared and there is no room for any error here. And the error I am most concerned with is not from within the company, but from the government.

The MAHA movement championed by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is catching on and while that may seem like great news for companies like LLY, and it is, the movement could turn into a nightmare at the same time.

You see, the messaging RFK Jr. has put forth, assuming he becomes the Health Czar, is that these obesity drugs are not the way to go, but healthy eating is. Well, if we all already did not know that healthy eating is the way to go, then shame on us.

But, we do know that and half the country doesn’t care as obesity rates are on the rise, not on the decline.

The risk for LLY and companies in that business is that what RFK says today may not be what he says tomorrow, especially if confirmed.

To be clear, RFK was against many vaccines but has softened his stance in the confirmation hearings. The same with anti-obesity drugs.

A lesson I learned a long time ago is that a leopard doesn’t change his spots. Are you willing to risk a $70 plus move on what one person may say on any given day? I am not and that is why I am selling LLY.

Action Plan: I will look to get back in LLY at lower levels. LLY also reports earnings on Thursday and you could sell half before and half after its earnings release in case there’s a pop. But, I think there will be many opportunities to get back into LLY at better prices in the future, maybe even the near future.

I will keep LLY on my watchlist in The War Room so you can cash in a $70 per share gain as well. And if you haven’t joined yet, click the the link below to learn more.
