The big announcement (presentation) on their drug comes out later today - however media embargo on the info lifts at 2 pm EST. Stock has gone from around $4 at beginning on month to 24 earlier today. Pretty funny if you ask me - anyone in that was completely playing with fire - multiple sources opined the stock would be halted ahead of announcement. Huge game show.

Thanks Risky. Now CEGE which is in the same space, just shot up 18% or so in the last few minutes perhaps in sympathy. Dndn is a nice stock to trade its options if you catch it just right.

Question:

I'm noticing, in the midst of this boom, that while advancers are greater than decliners, advancing volume is less than declining volume.

For example, as I write this...the S&P 100 has 62 advancers v. 38 decliners, and yet advancing volume is 635 m while declining volume is about 1.1 billion....the rest of the indexes follow a similar pattern.

Is this "normal"?

Thnx
