In August, the FDA granted accelerated approval for&nbsp;Gilead&#8217;s Livdelzi&nbsp;for primary biliary cholangitis in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults who have had an inadequate response to UDCA or as monotherapy in patients&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/08/40394698/fda-approves-gileads-seladelpar-for-inflammatory-liver-disease-acquired-via-4b-cymabay-deal" rel="noreferrer noopener">unable to tolerate UDCA</a>.

Gilead Unveils Long-Term Data From Seladelpar In Patients With Rare Liver Disease

In the wake of Donald Trump&#8217;s recent election victory, companies are rushing to tap into the US bond market, taking advantage of favorable conditions. Firms such as Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>), Gilead Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GILD#NASDAQ">GILD</a>), and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) have collectively raised over $50 billion in the past week.
What Happened: The surge in corporate borrowing is driven by a rally in credit and equity markets, which has pushed borrowing costs to historic lows. Investors are optimistic about potential tax cuts boosting profits, leading to a decrease in corporate borrowing costs relative to U.S. Treasuries, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/5f9eb247-2851-4da7-ac19-62761fb46d1d">reported</a> The Financial Times on Friday. The U.S. investment-grade bond spreads were at 0.8 percentage points late Thursday, nearing their lowest since 1998.
Banks have been quick to capitalize on these conditions, with significant activity in the financial sector.

Why It Matters: The bond market has been experiencing heightened volatility, as evidenced by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41746843/bond-market-fear-gauge-soars-to-1-year-high-ahead-of-us-election-results-bond-vigil">the MOVE index</a> reaching its highest level in over a year ahead of the U.S. election. 
Following Trump&#8217;s election, bond yields have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/bonds/24/11/41887642/bond-etfs-slide-as-fed-cuts-clash-with-trumps-fiscal-agenda">continued to rise</a>, complicating the Federal Reserve&#8217;s efforts to ease borrowing costs. The 10-year Treasury yield reached 4.34%, influenced by speculation surrounding Trump&#8217;s fiscal agenda.
Trump&#8217;s reelection has had a profound impact on financial markets, with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/24/11/41977313/will-trumps-election-win-push-sp-500-even-higher-in-final-weeks-of-2024-over-75-say">S&amp;P 500 Index</a> reaching new all-time highs since the election.

The biopharmaceutical sector showed signs of recovery in the third quarter of 2024, fueled by increased investor optimism following the U.S. Federal Reserve&#8217;s interest rate cuts in September. 
According to GlobalData, the top 20 global biopharmaceutical companies <a href="https://www.globaldata.com/media/business-fundamentals/top-20-global-biopharmaceutical-companies-witness-2-growth-in-market-capitalization-in-q3-2024-reveals-globaldata/#:~:text=As%20a%20result%2C%20the%20top,data%20analytics%20and%20research%20company.">saw</a> a 2% rise in their combined market capitalization, reaching $4.3 trillion by the end of September, up from $4.2 trillion in June. 
This rebound highlights the industry&#8217;s potential for growth despite challenges earlier in the year.
Bristol-Myers Squibb &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) led the market with the largest increase in capitalization, which surged by 24.6% to $105 billion. This was largely driven by advancements in its pipeline, notably the FDA&#8217;s approval of its antipsychotic drug, Cobenfy, for treating <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/41064867/schizophrenia-treatment-revolution-fda-approves-bristol-myers-squibb-cobenfy-as-new-class-of-trea">schizophrenia in September 2024</a>.

Sanofi SA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNY#NASDAQ">SNY</a>) experienced a 19.2% jump in market capitalization, largely fueled by its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41541274/sanofi-earns-5b-q3-core-profit-on-strong-dupixent-and-vaccine-sales-raises-2024-forecast">flagship drug Dupixent</a>.

Similarly, AbbVie Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABBV#NYSE">ABBV</a>) saw a 15.2% increase in its market cap, driven by the continued success of its immunology drugs—Humira, Skyrizi, and Rinvoq—which together generated nearly $7 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/07/39960414/abbvies-q2-earnings-beat-estimates-raises-annual-profit-on-strong-sales-from-newer-immunology-and">in Q2 2024 sales</a>.
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALNY#NASDAQ">ALNY</a>) joined the top 20 biopharmaceutical companies with a 14.9% rise in its market value, following its RNAi drug vutrisiran's positive results in treating ATTR <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/08/40652720/alnylam-pharmaceuticals-stock-falls-after-detailed-vutrisiran-data-for-a-condition-with-stiff-hea">amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy</a>. 
Roche Holdings AG's (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RHHBY#OTC">RHHBY</a>) market capitalization grew by 13.8%, spurred by the FDA&#8217;s approval of two key products, Ocrevus Zunovo for multiple sclerosis and Tecentriq Hybreza for oncology indications, the latter being the only approved subcutaneous <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/08/40652720/alnylam-pharmaceuticals-stock-falls-after-detailed-vutrisiran-data-for-a-condition-with-stiff-hea">PD-L1 inhibitor available</a>.
On the downside, Wegovy maker Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) saw an 18.2% drop in its market cap after the FDA rejected its BLA filing for the once-<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/07/39732571/fda-rejects-novo-nordisks-weekly-insulin-requests-information-related-to-manufacturing-process-ty">weekly insulin icodec</a>.
Similarly, Eli Lilly &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) reported a slight decline of 2.1%, though both companies retained their leadership in diabetes and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41622207/eli-lilly-q3-earnings-mounjaro-sales-more-than-double-takes-2-98-billion-hit-to-profit-cuts-annua">weight loss drugs</a>.

HIV Drugmaker Gilead Reports Strongest Quarterly Performance Of 2024, Analysts Boost Price Target On Raised Outlook

After Wednesday&#8217;s &#8220;everything rally&#8221; spurred by the election results, investors took a less euphoric approach on Thursday ahead of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting.
The Fed is widely expected to cut interest rates by 25 basis points, bringing them to a range of 4.5%-4.75%, following a previous 50-basis-point cut in September.
Yet, all eyes are on Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8217;s comments at 2:30 p.m. ET regarding the potential for future rate hikes and his views on inflation risks. Concerns from the market center on the possibility of a policy U-turn driven by higher fiscal deficits and price pressures from trade tariffs under a Trump administration.
Tech stocks led gains, with the Nasdaq 100 extending its record-breaking levels, surpassing 21,000 points and eyeing a third consecutive positive session. The S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones posted more modest gains, while the Russell 2000 paused after Wednesday&#8217;s 5.8% leap.
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) remained a top performer among mega-cap stocks, bolstered by expectations of Elon Musk&#8216;s influence in the upcoming administration.
Treasury yields reversed a substantial portion of Wednesday's post-election increase, while the U.S. dollar dipped by 0.7%.
Metal commodities rebounded after Wednesday&#8217;s sharp losses, with gold rising 1.3%, silver up 2% and copper rallying over 4%.
Oil prices strengthened by 1%, with West Texas Intermediate trading around $72 per barrel.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose 0.8%, reaching $76,000 to extend its record highs, while Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) outperformed with a gain of over 4%.
