This Penny Stock NMTR Could soar 462% in 2021The company’s development pipeline features drug candidates under investigation as treatments for short bowel syndrome (SBS) and celiac disease (CeD), two conditions that are both dangerous and difficult to treat. 9 Meters’ flagship product, Larazotide, is in Phase 3 development for the treatment of CeD. CeD affects about 1% of the population, yet there are no approved therapies. Top-line data from the study is expected in the second half of 2021. Furthermore, this past December, the company announced that it had entered an agreement with EBRIS, the European Biomedical Research Institute of Salerno, to investigate Larazotide as a potential treatment for respiratory complications due to COVID-19. The other major drug in the company’s pipeline is NM-002, for SBS. The company has recently announced positive Phase 1b/2a results, with a measurable impact on disease symptoms from a compound that was well-tolerated by patients. ne of these NMTR bulls is Truist’s Srikripa Devarakonda. Citing Larazotide as a key component of his bullish thesis, the analyst noted, “We acknowledge investors are likely to see a pivotal trial in a tough-to-crack Celiac disease program as high risk despite encouraging Ph2b data. We model $705M/$353M in peak unadjusted/adjusted sales and see potential upside of 400% - 1650% from positive Ph3 readout.” finance.yahoo.com

Silver Lake cashes out on AMC for $713 million after Reddit-fuelBuyout firm Silver Lake disclosed on Friday that it sold its stake in AMC Entertainment Holdings for $713 million this week, capitalizing on a 10-fold rise in the price of the shares as traders organizing on social media platforms such as Reddit snapped them up. The trade puts Silver Lake and its co-investors in the black following a $600 million convertible bond investment that the private equity firm made in AMC in 2018. Such an outcome looked unlikely when AMC, the world's largest movie theater chain, was battling to stave off bankruptcy last summer, a move it avoided thanks to a debt restructuring deal with Silver Lake and its creditors. Silver Lake was able to convert the bonds into shares thanks to the rally pushing AMC's stock above the bonds' conversion price this week. AMC stock price surged as traders targeted heavily shorted stocks . Silver Lake sold its stake over several open-market transactions that day, according to regulatory filings. AMC itself also capitalized on the rally. It raised $304.8 million by selling shares this week. It is considering new moves to raise capital through stock sales, sources told Reuters on Thursday.

SPY perspectives - two scenariosWe are moving into a more and more tight price action as we are in the end of the wedge now and with the rise of volumes we see some heighten activity in trading. RSI and MACD divergence are still showing divergence with the price and RSI is almost below 50. MACD has a bearish crossing and the histogram is going negative. Two possible scenarios are forming now. We have a bullish one that is currently forming as we've jumped from the internal support around 373 price zone. Failing to continue the movement back inside the uptrend we may see a fall below 373 and move towards the first support zone at 360.

Why GSX stock soared? Short-sellers are getting squeezed.......The coronavirus is getting worse in China, and it's possible that investors believe that's a good thing for GSX. GSX is a remote-education company in China, and its business grew substantially in 2020. And if COVID-19 gets worse in that country, it's possible 2021 will be another good year for this business. According to The Associated Press, new coronavirus cases are causing the Chinese government to lock down two hospitals in Shanghai. it appears investors might expect GSX Techedu's services will be in greater demand if the pandemic worsens in China. This is further complicated by short interest in this stock. According to Yahoo! Finance, around half of the stock's float was sold short up until recently. If investors are buying shares over the last few days because of the news coming out of China, it could be causing a short squeeze, as short-sellers are forced to cover their bearish positions. Over 22% of GSX stock is sold short, giving it a short interest ratio of almost 14 days (anything over seven days is considered a lot). While that indicates short-sellers are getting squeezed, or being forced to cover their positions at ever-higher prices, it's more just a phenomenon flooding the market at the moment. the company is under fire from many popular short-sellers, who claim GSX Techedu is a fraud. And the company has indeed admitted that it is under investigation from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). While that investigation is ongoing and it may turn out that everything is above board, this has caused a lot of people to actively bet against this stock. The company faces the possibility of being delisted from major U.S. exchanges if the SEC finds wrongdoing. Therefore, it's important to approach a GSX Techedu investment fully aware of this risk. Investors shouldn't be swayed by these price swings, and investors would be smart to sit on the sidelines until GSX Techedu sorts out the battle taking place between short-sellers and those long on its stock. www.fool.com

Bank of America in risk of a trend reversalMy bearish view for Bank of America is almost confirmed. All is left is a move below $30.59 zone. RSI and MACD are flashing red and point for a continuation of the selling. Volumes are descending as activity is slowing down resent days. Since the bad earnings, the bank is under pressure from investors, but still the downtrend is not entirely confirmed. Given the broader market and perpetual stimulus, BAC may have a second chance to continue its uptrend.
