Hims & Hers Health climbs 5.68% after FDA advisory panel backs adding BPC-157 peptide to 503A compounding list

AI Market Summary
Hims & Hers outperformed a broad risk-off tape after an FDA advisory panel voted to include the BPC-157 peptide on the 503A bulk compounding list, improving regulatory visibility for expanding peptide-based prescriptions. The move partially offsets earlier concerns flagged in FDA briefing materials. A decline in short interest may reduce incremental selling pressure and amplify sensitivity to positive catalysts ahead of the Aug. 10 earnings report.
