Will Eli Lilly Be a Trillion-Dollar Stock by 2030?
Most investors are comfortable with the idea of businesses like Apple and Microsoft having market caps in excess of $1 trillion. Today, Eli Lilly's market cap is a little north of $410 billion, which puts it among the top handful of big pharma companies. Its trailing 12-month net income is $6.2 billion, and its trailing price-to-earnings ratio is near 69, which is fairly high, but not at bloated tech stock levels.
