Is This Volume Any Indicator Of A New Trend?MRKR has been a sleeper all year. No major high-volume days and nothing really to write home about. But it managed to pull off a bigger move earlier on. Now that the gap has filled from the drop a few weeks ago & they secured funds, what will this mean for the company's next steps?
"An onslaught of Form 4s showed hand fulls of investors and insiders participating in the recent offering. The company raised the money to fund its Phase 2 trial of MT-401 in acute myeloid leukemia. Marker also plans to develop MultiTAA therapies into clinical trials in other indications and conduct manufacturing activities, among other things.
In addition to this, analysts have also weighed in recently. Cantor Fitzgerald initiated coverage on Marker this month. The firm started MRKR at Overweight and gave a price target of $6."

Back In The Channel AgainMNKD is back in that Fib channel between the .5 and .382 levels. This was a previous channel earlier in the year. Now that the financing deal is done, will it finally see a prolonged uptrend without much interruption?
" However, with fresh capital in hand, the company aims at advancing its current pipeline. This includes a Phase 3 clinical trial of its Afrezza inhaled insulin product in pediatric subjects. MannKind also explained that it wants to further the development of product candidates in its pipeline. The company may also use a portion of the proceeds for acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses or technologies.
Even with the pullback, analysts seem to remain bullish on the company. SVB Leerink most recently adjusted its price target on the stock. It had previously issued a $3 target but upped it to $5. The firm also carries an Outperform rating on the stock. "

SELB Back In High TrafficSELB is back in the upper area of its high-traffic support/resistance from several times prior. Most recently, it saw this act as support in February. But it wasn't able to sustain the level. Anyway, it's back at this but in this case, the level has acted as a potential resistance (for now). It's gonna be interesting to see what happens next.
Selecta seems to have benefited from a bullish outlook discussed by the company in its last corporate update.
“We are very pleased by the continued progress of our gene therapy program. In collaboration with AskBio, our lead program in methylmalonic acidemia, is on track to enter the clinic in the second quarter of this year, and we expect initial data by the end of the year,” said Carsten Brunn, Ph.D., president, and chief executive officer of Selecta.
“A key objective of 2021 will be to generate human data in our gene therapy programs and to continue to build our extensive pipeline in gene therapies, enzyme therapies–with an expected IND filing by the end of the year in IgA nephropathy–and autoimmune diseases, as we work to deliver on our mission to leverage our pioneering ImmTOR platform to improve the lives of patients and their families.”

Is OPK Fibbin'?OPK back at the .236 fib line, which has been a clear area of support/resistance. The question is, will the speculation on its testing company end up giving the boost needed to push back above the $5 mark or is this truly a "fib" and OPK falls back down heading into the rest of March?
"Ongoing pressure from an activist investor to offload its BioReference unit has also become a source of speculation. This stemmed from recent M&A action within the diagnostics space earlier this month. Needless to say, the recent action in the stock has continued supporting some analysts’ bullish stances on the company. Most recently, Barrington Research boosted its price target to $8 from $7 and maintained its Outperform rating."

$RUBY Doubles on Progress in Early-Stage Cancer-Drug TrialRubius Therapeutics Reports Initial Clinical Data from Ongoing Phase 1/2 Trial of RTX-240 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors, Demonstrating Single-Agent Activity.
RTX-240 Generated Partial Responses in Metastatic Anal Cancer and Metastatic Uveal Melanoma Patients; No DLTs or Related Grade 3/4 Adverse Events
RTX-240 Promoted Trafficking of NK and T Cells into
Tumor Microenvironment
Initial Clinical Data Provide Evidence of Broad Potential of RED PLATFORM® Across Pipeline of Cancer and Autoimmune Programs
The initial data "demonstrate that RTX-240 has the potential to generate single-agent activity in patients with solid tumors, including a cold tumor such as metastatic uveal melanoma, where other treatments have failed to induce responses in patients," Christina Coughlin, an oncologist and immunologist who is chief medical officer at Rubius Therapeutics, said in a statement.
“The encouraging safety results, including a single event of Grade 1 liver toxicity, and preliminary efficacy data for RTX-240 to date give us the potential to realize the power of immune agonists for the treatment of cancer," Coughlin added.
The ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of RTX-240 in patients with advanced solid tumors resulted in a 54% confirmed partial response rate in reducing the target lesions in a patient with metastatic anal cancer.
The adverse effects of the treatment included fatigue, chills, nausea, decreased appetite and arthralgia, which is pain in a joint.
Rubius is now planning a new Phase 1 study for the second half of 2021 to evaluate the combination of RTX-240 and another therapy.
It's also planning a Phase 2 expansion cohort for first-quarter 2022, according to its statement.

HALBERD CORPORATION· Current Price – $0.0419
· Best Case Scenario PT over 1$
· Market Cap – $11 million
· Debt – 0
Halbert Corporation
Are a biomedical company with a clear aim to revolutionize the world of medicine. They are working towards a creation of variety of antibodies and treatments using extracorporeal techniques (outside of body). They believe they have the technology to cure diseases like, Covid-19, PTSD, Cancer, CTE, tuberculosis, malaria, strokes and heart attacks, blood sepsis, Alzheimer’s Disease.
In the last 8 months they have secured 7 provisional patents (which give the global rights) to technology of treating severe Covid-19 patients, Covid-19 nasal spray, antibody cocktail to boost immune system against Covid - 19 and recently developed two new antibodies that no other big pharma has, which allows them detect Covid-19 in matter of minutes using saliva or blood samples. Furthermore, are working with $GRPS to develop anti-addiction patches (alcohol, drugs, nicotine).
To achieve their further goals they have carefully selected to partner with Arizona State University (who have won the first place in innovation for the last 6 years going in the USA, higher than MIT or Stanford). This partnership has already delivered amazing milestones and they are already working towards filing for new joint provisional patents. Halbert has 0 debt, yes ZERO and been receiving funding in 2 million chunk donations due to promising results. Halberd’s corporate charter also prohibits them from issuing any kind of convertible financial instrument, debt or preferred stock, however the corporation shall be able to issue warrants or options.
Management team has extensive experience and contacts in the medical/pharmaceutical fields as well as a demonstrated track record of launching new business ventures in a competitive environment.
Furthermore, the ultimate catalyst, which seems quite likely is for Halbert to partner or licence their technology to one of the big pharma as the CEO, William has mentioned so on multiple occasions. In the past, he has been approached by the big pharma (Pfizer and Novartis), and hopes the same will happen with their revolutionary technology.
Issued Patents
2014 - Sequential Extracorporeal Treatment of Bodily Fluids
2015 - Utilization of Stents for the Treatment of Blood Borne Carcinomas
Provisional Patents
11/2020 - Fluorescent Antibody’s in Covid-19 Detection & Treatment
10/2020 - Medication For The Reduction Of Morbidity And Mortality In Persons Infected By Sars-Cov-2 (Covid-19 Virus).
10/2020 - Method For Treating And Curing Covid-19 Infection By Utilizing Radiofrequency Extracorporeally To Eradicate The Virus
09/2020 - Nasal Spray To Prevent The Transmission Of Covid-19 Between Humans
04/2020 - Method for Treating and Curing Covid-19 Infection by Utilizing a Laser to Eradicate the Virus
04/2020 - Method for Treating Covid-19 Inflammatory Cytokine Storm for the Reduction of Morbidity and Mortality in Covid-19 Patients
03/2020 - Method for Treating and Curing Covid-19 Infection
Future Patents
During podcasts and interviews the CEO said he will announce another 2 patents soon. They are waiting to achieve provisional status to ensure the technology is safe. Further patents are in the pipeline as CEO’s devised a strategy to secure as many patents as they can, of which they could then either licence or partner on developing on joint ventures with big pharma.
Upcoming Catalyst 2021
· 2 patent provisional applications yet to be announced
· Development of antibody cocktail vitamins to boost immune system against Covid-19 (Q2 launch and start to generate revenue)
· Development of Covid-19 Nasal Spray
· Commercial development of Covid-19 test using saliva or blood (takes only a minute no nasal swap which is uncomfortable)
· Patent Licencing to other pharma companies – they produced antibodies that are stronger than some of the big pharma
· Partnerships and joint ventures with other organizations
· Discovery of new treatments and patent fillings
· Further development of extracorporeal technology to treat cancer, PTSD, Alzheimer’s, blood sepsis, CTE
· Anti-addiction patches
Sociability Factor
In penny stock market, especially during current times (rise of social media and social traders) the CEO’s or the organization being sociable, sharing achievements, milestones, ethos and so on can have a massive impact on the share value. In this regard, Halberd’s corporation in my view would score high points. They tend to release anywhere between 2/5 press releases a month in which various milestones would be announced via text, video interviews or podcasts.
Senior Leadership Team
The CEO’s aim was to ensure that they develop a very cohesive team of talented people to achieve greatness. Here below I have listed a few KEY members including bio snapshots.
Business Advisory Board
The CEO – based on the videos and podcasts that are available (6+) of William A. Hartman sounds very ambitious and driven on a mission to be the best in the industry and revolutionize medicine.
He believes Halberd corporation share value should be worth $1 per share. This may sound like very ambitious venture for some, however, let us not forget he founded and headed separate business group within TRW Automotive with plants in the U.S., Mexico and Europe that produced combined annual sales of $1.3 Billion – this shows extreme capability. He has also worked as COO for Nanologix, Inc, President and CEO of Premier Biomedical. I would recommend checking out any of his interviews to feel his passion.
Carl Eller - retired NFL Pro Football Hall of Famer, and President of the NFL Retired Players Association, was drafted in 1964 as the league’s 6th pick overall by the Minnesota Vikings, he became a major factor as a defensive end with the unit known as the “Purple People Eaters.” Eller became a six-time Pro Bowl player who appeared in four Superbowls and is currently focused on helping former players transition into retirement.
Alec Torelli - is an entrepreneur, author, motivational speaker and professional poker player who has worked with various companies to apply his life experiences/lessons from poker, in a practical manner, to carry out their corporate visions, increase sales and/or improve service delivery while creating meaningful lives for their employees.

BIOL Back In The Channel AgainIt's almost exhausting watching BIOL do this every time...jump, fall, jump, fall, all right back to this channel. There's an interim gap to fill from a few weeks back but still many other levels to consider IF it can break back above and out of this channel. I think volume will be an indicator to watch in consideration of whether or not this can happen.
Because dental procedures have resumed to most of their pre-covid levels, many investors are bullish on the future of Biolase. While it is affected by the pandemic, the company is working to build new strategies. This goes hand in hand with its need to continue innovating and receiving new patents. With all of this in mind, is BIOL a penny stock to watch?

SYN Still Trying To Fill The GapThere's still a pretty big gap to fill from a few years ago but again, with a lot of biotech gaining recently, small caps could be back on the menu.
After Maxim Group upgraded SYN from a hold to a buy, shares of the biotech company dramatically increased. In addition to this, Maxim Group analysts gave a price target for SYN of $2.50. This represents a 10% or so gain from where it was before the rating. At the end of Friday, March 12th, SYN stock had shot up by over 29% to $0.92...CEO Steven Shallcross stated that “we are more encouraged than ever by this outlook for the business as we have made important progress during the fourth quarter advancing and demonstrating the significant value of our clinical development programs. With a number of upcoming catalysts later this year, we believe there is potential to continue to deliver significant value for our shareholders.”

Back At Historical S/R Level On ISRISR has been something of a sight in this market. Now, after pulling in and settling down a bit, it's back at the historic support/resistance level. With momentum acting as a tailwind in biotech stocks, overall, I'll be interested to see if it can get back above this level in more of a "calm fashion" haha.
While fewer surgeries occurred last year due to covid, IsoRay has managed to work around this, building its brachytherapy use cases along the way. CEO Lori Woods stated that “we are very pleased that we have been able to continue to make progress this quarter despite the ongoing challenges that the Covid-19 pandemic has presented. Amongst the highlights has been our continued success in expanding adoption of Celsium-131 in our core prostate market.”

BTIG buy recommendation with $14.00 price target- 360.5% upsideShares of $SEEL skyrocketed today after BTIG initiated coverage on the stock with a buy recommendation and a one-year price target nearly 4.7 times higher than Seelos' closing price on Thursday.
BTIG analyst Robert Hazlett likes the prospects for Seelos' pipeline. Last week, the biotech announced that it had completed enrollment in a pivotal proof-of-concept study evaluating SLS-002 in treating acute suicidal ideation and behavior in patients with major depressive disorder.
Seelos also has two other clinical-stage candidates. It's evaluating SLS-005 in phase 2 studies for three neurodegenerative disorders: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), rare genetic disease Sanfilippo syndrome, and oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy.
Seelos should report key data from its study of SLS-002 in the second quarter of this year.
Seelos also plans to advance SLS-005 into a pivotal phase 2b/3 clinical study targeting ALS in the first half of the year.
