AEZS European approval to market MacrillenAEterna has a variety of new products in its pipeline.
Macrilen, for example, is the first and only FDA-approved oral test for the diagnosis of Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency.
AEterna received European approval to market Macrillen.
Dr. Christian Strasburger: "Clinical studies have demonstrated that macimorelin is safer and much simpler to administer than the current methods of testing for insulin-induced hypoglycemia, and is well-tolerated by patients and reliable in diagnosing the condition.”
I think AEZS is a sleeping giant.
My price target is $1.25.
BMY to break out in the next several yearsBMY is presently in a wedge. Though a breakdown is certainly possible over the next decade, what are reasonable breakout levels to watch? This chart with Fib levels induced by the move from all-time lows to all-time highs gives some clues.
Approximately $75 is first up, then approximately $120.
Humanigen is ready to reverseHumanigen's stock has two lower trend resistance lines with price targets of $3 and $2, respectively.
The first resistance line has just hit after a month of major events.
Catalyst 1: Marc Bistricer of Murchison and Nomis Bay bought back in after major selling over the past year.
Catalyst 2: 7 corporate insiders including the CEO (Cameron Durrant) and Chief Scientific Officer (Dale Chappell) announced taking sizable call options at strikes between $0 and $2.85 in lieu of salary.
Catalyst 3: Bad news is out and priced in (or largely priced in). The FDA and MHRA have both informed HGEN that its applications to license lenzilumab, the company's proprietary anti-cytokine-storm therapeutic, are delayed pending further data on efficacy, safety, and manufacturing.
Catalyst 4: In December the findings from the 2020-2021 LIVE-AIR trial were published in The Lancet, one of the top 5 medical journals in the world.
Catalyst 5: the confirmatory ACTIV-5 BET trial sponsored by the NIH is now fully enrolled. The interim data readout is expected at the very earliest in late February, at the latest in early March. The FDA and MHRA will ultimately decide whether to give emergency authorization for lenzilumab as a COVID therapeutic based on the ACTIV-5 results.

Biotech primed for a move higher?This one is almost pure intuition. We're in pharmaceuticals earnings season now. Seagen reports after market today. A bunch of other large holdings of XBI report on November 3-4, and a bunch more on November 8. Bonds and tech stocks have made a breakout move upward, and small caps look primed. (XBI is full of small and micro caps.) XBI has had a long consolidation here, and I really like the price action on it today. A lot of other sector funds have had mid-day pullbacks, but XBI has maintained its steady upward slope. It has poked above the 20-day EMA. My guess is that this will be green again tomorrow, so I've rolled the dice on a call expiring October 29. I'm also looking for continuation the next two weeks, with a first target of about 131.75.
SPRB - 8M FLOAT - WORTH X2-X3 CURRENT PRICEAll,
I am already scaled in big here. I am without a doubt this stock will at least double.
***KEEP IN MIND THIS IS AN 8M FLOAT COMPANY
1. Do your own DD you will notice all that has really happened is low float short sellers have just railed the price down
2. This companies price targets are insane not to mention 8M float will make this EXPLODE on any good news. The company is already undervalued + postiive news of any kind just blows this baby to the moon. Except here the moon is probably where it SHOULD be.
3. Financially speaking easily in great position no chance of offerings
4. Promising company overall
5. This downtrend looks awful, but is purely short sellers and look at the length of the time on market.
This looks like it may happen soon, but either way I will happily add large position scales into this stock and simply wait. I really think at some point even a year from now we see 20+. The question is do you want to chase stocks daily, weekly or scale in. Either way set alers and volume alerts.
TTOOAppears to have bottomed here and corrections are zig zig patterns 5,3,5 that continue to overlap into each other so I labeled this correction with WXY. Most likely TTOO will push back up from here towards $1.40
$XAIR Symmetrical Triangle BreakBeyond Air has continued a strong uptrend since June. Recently its bin tapering and has shown a symmetrical triangle formation. A Brake out to the upside is likely to continue the uptrend. Watch for a move past the top of the triangle at 11.88 level for conformation and more possible upside. No resistance till 12.50 a high not seen since March 4, 2020

VERTEX CAN GO UP Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is an American biopharmaceutical company based in Boston, Massachusetts. It was one of the first biotech firms to use an explicit strategy of rational drug design rather than combinatorial chemistry. Excellent bullish divergence on the monthly. Great time for a long trade on this asset that could attempt a retarget in the $ 240 zone.
