Last Week’s Top 10 Stocks Post Double-Digit Gains

3. Hims & Hers Health Inc. (NYSE:HIMS)

Shares of Hims & Hers jumped by 42 percent last week, ending Friday’s trading at $60.47 each versus the $42.55 a week earlier after the company saw a 650-percent spike in its website traffic, thanks to its recent Super Bowl advertisement called “Sick of the System.”

According to FOX Sports, the HIMS ad which was aired in the third quarter of Sunday’s Super Bowl LIX game, was so far the most-watched advertisement with 127.7 million views.

The ad featured a montage of junk food, and abdominal fat, as well as statistics about the health risks of obesity and big pharmaceutical firms’ hefty prices. HIMS’ ad then promoted its weight loss products, including compounded GLP-1 medications, as alternatives to the pricey Ozempic and Wegovy brands.

“Junk food giants, diet industry’s quick fixes, Big Pharma’s price-gouging, and regulations that favor special interests have created a system that leaves us with limited options, skyrocketing costs, and a cycle of failure,” HIMS said in its ad.
