  • Feds Bring Hammer Down On Biotech Firm Vaxart

    California biotech company Vaxart is under federal investigation and is being sued by a number of investors. According to CNN, Vaxart was served with a grand jury subpoena in July from the US District Court for the Northern District of California. It's under fire for exaggerating its involvement in the US government's Operation Warp Speed program for developing COVID-19 vaccines and treatments. Vaxart issued a June press release saying 'Vaxart's Covid-19 Vaccine Selected for the US Government's Operation Warp Speed.' The news pumped Vaxart's stock price from $3 to $17. Hedge fund Armistice Capital, which partly controlled Vaxart, sold its shares, profiting more than $200m. A few weeks before it announced its supposed inclusion in the Operation Warp Speed program, Vaxart granted amendments to its warrants agreements. That allowed Armistice to sell almost all of their stock, which they did once the stock price skyrocketed. In July, the HHS said it had neither entered into a funding agreement nor negotiations with Vaxart.

  • Strategist: Investors Should Seize The Market's 'Knee Jerk' Drop If Biden Wins

    A Credit Suisse analyst says that if Joe Biden wins the US presidential election in November, it could spur a 'knee-jerk' pullback in the stock market of 5%. According to Markets Insider, senior investment strategist Suresh Tantia said that was due to the Democratic nominee's stance on corporate taxes. However, Tantia said investors should look at such a pullback as a buying opportunity, as Fed support will keep driving markets after the election. The central-bank support is not going anywhere. The Fed is going to keep rates lower for longer, similar to other central banks. Suresh Tantia, Senior Investment Strategist Credit Suisse Tantia's tip for traders? Investors should seek out equities in Asian markets, as they are cheaper than US stocks and have strong earnings.
