Stock price when the opinion was issued
Biotech can be a big win or a big loss. A lot of companies have binary outcomes, their product either works or it doesn’t. This company recently had a significant disappointment. US investors are not very sympathetic to these types of situations. They shoot first and ask questions later. If you want to own biotech, he would suggest you own a tech with lots of different products, or buy an ETF that gives you a basket. This one is a broken stock.
(Top Short March 9/07.) You would have entered at about $37 and with your trailing stop you would have been out in a few days and probably would've broken even including your commissions. Had expected bad news, but they had some positive news.
