Wall Street quietly mixed ahead of Nvidia earnings and the first government economic data in 6 weeks

SUMMARY: Trading on Wall Street was quietly mixed at the outset of a week likely to be focused on an earnings report by chipmaker Nvidia and the first government employment data release in more than six weeks. Futures for the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average each edged less than 0.1% lower, while Nasdaq futures inched up less than 0.1% before the opening bell Monday. Google's parent company Alphabet jumped more than 4% after Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway disclosed in an regulatory filing that it had taken a more than $4 billion stake in the technology giant.

Obesity Treatments-Accessibility

Novo chops Wegovy prices, but doctors still see affordability challenges for patients

SUMMARY: Novo Nordisk is chopping prices again for its popular obesity treatment Wegovy, but doctors say the expense will remain challenging for patients without insurance. The drugmaker said Monday that it has started selling higher doses of the injectable treatment for $349 a month to patients paying the full bill. That's down from $499 and in line with terms of a drug pricing agreement outlined earlier this month by President Donald Trump's administration. Novo also has started a temporary price break for the first two months of low doses of Wegovy and the drug's diabetes counterpart, Ozempic.
