Shares of sleep apnea device makers ResMed (RMD) and Inspire Medical (INSP) are slipping in early trading after Eli Lilly (LLY) announced topline results of the SURMOUNT-OSA phase 3 clinical trials that showed tirzepatide injection significantly reduced the apnea-hypopnea index, or AHI, compared to placebo, achieving the primary endpoints of the studies. SURMOUNT-OSA Study 1 evaluated tirzepatide, which Lilly identifies as "the only approved GIP and GLP-1 treatment for chronic weight management, commercialized as Zepbound in the U.S. and Mounjaro in some global markets outside the U.S.," in adults with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA, and obesity who were not on positive airway pressure, or PAP, therapy for 52 weeks. In Wednesday pre-market trading, ResMed shares are down about 3% to $180, while Inspire shares have slipped about 1% to $220.

Deutsche Bank downgraded ArcelorMittal (MT) to Hold from Buy with a price target of $31, down from $34. The stock has recovered after the cyclical crunch last year, supported by the removal of some overhang risks - including the Kazakhstan mill divestment post the severe accident and possible involvement in the U.S. Steel (X) bidding process - as well as the rebound in the cycle and intensified share buybacks, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm adds however that the demand rebound in many core markets remains soft, as Chinese data remains weak and continues to weigh on steel and iron ore markets.
