Eli Lilly Stock Is On Track to Do Something It Hasn't Done Since 2016

The top healthcare stock has been underperforming the market, and its returns haven't been as impressive as in recent years.

Eli Lilly Stock Is On Track to Do Something It Hasn't Done Since 2016

Published September 21, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) has been a tremendous growth stock over the years. But thus far in 2026, it's been a fairly underwhelming buy. As of Monday's close, it was up around 8%. While that's a decent return, it trails the S&P 500, which is up by 13%. The stock is on track for its worst performance since 2016, which is the last time it failed to deliver double-digit returns. That year, it declined by nearly 13%.

Is this a sign that the growth stock has run out of room to rise higher?
