$MRNA news could be a huge breakthrough (probably will take years to know one way or the other), or it could be something not replicated in other trials. Either way the move is just enormous and the likelihood of a raise in the next few months is very high imo. Selling a few Jan27 220 calls, priced around 22.

Steadily down, then suddenly. H/T @forgebitz Semrush showed signficant decline for $RDDT citations last year, and now a sudden further plummet. Perhaps human shitposting and SEO AI slop fest isn’t indispensable data… https://t.co/aSIBSTBUfE https://t.co/z0EEAvAm7E

Reality check: Ph2 $MRNA lead with the data. Ph3, no actual data. They are just saying they hit their endpoints. Those being RFS, DFMS, OS. "We have not disclosed with Merk kind of where the goalpost is". This is not a "personalized cancer vaccine". $MRNA gave themselves an A on the test but we don't know how hard the test was. That's what this is.

Shelly Group $SLYG major shareholder Svetlin Todorov has transferred nearly 1/4 of his shares (6.5% of Shelly) into a LLC he also owns. Maybe a preparation for a potential partial sale to Schneider Electric who would buy into Shelly as a strategic investor / partnership? https://t.co/YJfHzbSeeH

@MLedrappier @roadkillrecipes @CalgaryLeveen @FishOnCapital $NN No doubt the smartest people in the room think Sept and Oct are very live months. The SpaceX news is critically important great news. I may be wrong, but I love the company’s position right now.
