- Microsoft Dividend Growth: Microsoft's quarterly dividend has increased from $0.36 a decade ago to $0.91 today, a 153% rise with a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 10%, and despite its 0.9% yield being below the S&P 500's 1.1%, its low payout ratio of 21% indicates significant room for future growth.
- Eli Lilly's Appeal: Eli Lilly's quarterly dividend has more than doubled in five years from $0.85 in 2021 to $1.73, and while its current yield is only 0.6%, its payout ratio of 22% suggests the company can continue to increase dividends while providing exposure to the fast-growing GLP-1 market.
- Mastercard's Solid Performance: Mastercard's quarterly dividend has surged from $0.19 a decade ago to $0.87, representing a 358% increase and a CAGR of over 16%, and although its yield is 0.7%, its low payout ratio of 18% and 47% sales growth indicate a strong business foundation and future growth potential.
- Investor Considerations: While these companies currently offer low dividend yields, their strong growth prospects and low payout ratios make them reliable income investment choices, and investors should focus on their long-term dividend growth potential.

Novo Nordisk to Seek Approval for Weight-Loss Pill Soon
- Increased Market Competition: CEO Mike Doustdar announced that Novo Nordisk plans to seek Chinese regulatory approval for its weight-loss pill “very soon,” aiming to catch up with rival Eli Lilly's leading position in the world's second-largest pharmaceutical market.
- Strategic Positioning: This move not only reflects Novo Nordisk's commitment to the Chinese market but also indicates its intention to meet the growing health demands through the launch of its weight-loss medication, thereby enhancing its market share in the rapidly evolving pharmaceutical industry.
- Industry Outlook: With rising concerns over obesity in China, the weight-loss medication market holds significant potential, and Novo Nordisk's application is expected to drive product line diversification and improve overall performance in the future.
- Regulatory Challenges: While Novo Nordisk is actively advancing the approval process, the complex drug regulatory environment in China means that successfully obtaining approval will be a critical factor for the company's success in this market.

Cathie Wood Resumes Buying After IPO Surge
- Eli Lilly Performance: Despite a 1.43% drop on Wednesday, Eli Lilly (LLY) has surged 40% over the past year, briefly exceeding a $1 trillion market cap, driven by strong growth in GLP-1 drugs, with 2023 revenue expected to rise by 26% to 30%.
- Block's Current Status: Block (XYZ) shares rose 2.75%, with a market cap of $43 billion; although its stock has been flat over the past year, revenue growth has accelerated over the last four quarters, indicating future growth potential, and the current high P/E ratio offers a good entry point for investors.

- Investment Strategy Analysis: Cathie Wood resumed buying after four days of selling, adding to positions in stocks like Eli Lilly, Block, and Coinbase, reflecting her strategy of seeking investment opportunities during market volatility, particularly by increasing stakes when prices drop to achieve higher returns.

Recap of CNBC Investing Club Monthly Meeting

Novo Nordisk to File for Wegovy Approval in China Soon
- Market Expansion Plans: Novo Nordisk's CEO Mike Doustdar announced that the company will submit its Wegovy weight-loss pill for regulatory approval in China within a few months, indicating its intent to expand in the world's second-largest market and compete with Eli Lilly's orforglipron.
- Product Launch Context: Wegovy was launched in the U.S. earlier this year after receiving FDA approval in December, and Novo Nordisk aims to mitigate potential impacts on its GLP-1 franchise from the upcoming patent expiry of semaglutide, the active ingredient in its diabetes therapies, by introducing Wegovy in China.
- Competitive Advantage Analysis: Doustdar noted that one barrier to entry for Wegovy will be the scaling of production capabilities, suggesting that not many competitors will have the necessary capacity, which could provide Novo Nordisk with a strategic edge in the Chinese market.
- Industry Dynamics Observation: Eli Lilly submitted its marketing application for its oral GLP-1 therapy orforglipron to Chinese regulators at the end of last year, highlighting the intensifying competition in this sector, and Novo Nordisk's timely application will help position it effectively in the market.
