Novartis CEO Vas Narasimhan announced that the company's U.S. manufacturing investments and a federal agreement could mitigate the impact of proposed tariffs by the Trump administration on European imports. With a $23 billion investment in U.S. facilities, Novartis aims to supply the U.S. market domestically, while existing stockpiles provide additional protection against trade disruptions. The company supports U.S. drug pricing objectives and anticipates a 5-6% annual sales growth from 2025 to 2030. NVS stock rose 0.41% to $145.60.
