Speculation about a potential buyout of Northwest Biotherapeutics (NWBO) by Merck has been a topic of discussion among investors and analysts. There are several reasons why such a buyout could be strategically beneficial for Merck:
1. Extending Keytruda’s Market Dominance: Merck’s blockbuster immunotherapy drug, Keytruda, generates significant revenue, and its patent will expire in about six years. Acquiring NWBO and its promising DCVax-L therapy for glioblastoma could help Merck extend its market dominance and potentially increase its oncology portfolio’s value .
2. Market Position in Glioblastoma Treatment: Merck already has a presence in the glioblastoma treatment market with temozolomide, a standard of care. Acquiring NWBO would allow Merck to combine DCVax-L with temozolomide, potentially owning a larger share of the glioblastoma treatment market and enhancing patient outcomes .
3. Strategic Fit and Potential Synergy: Merck’s previous buyouts, such as the acquisition of Prometheus, show its interest in expanding its oncology pipeline through strategic acquisitions. The integration of NWBO’s DCVax technology could provide significant synergies and strengthen Merck’s position in the immunotherapy space .
Food for thought.
We all know it’s absurd where this stock is trading. This news is so important and relevant. This is just another reason why BP will buy these guys. There is no question. They have set this up as almost a turnkey buyout. This should get a high multiple on a buyout. Prediction all the illegal shorts will turn around and cover and go long and make a fortune on the upside as well.
The 94k is what they made in fees you idiot. The issue is them owning or shorting the stock and what profit was made from that. Let’s be honest. You know this and you are trying to ignore it hoping people read this and this you know what you are talking about. What’s wrong with you.
Why is hygro here?
This is just stupid. People upset about 20-30 cents on this stock should just sell everything and go stick a fork in a socket. Once it’s approved this thing is so far gone and everyone will cry I should have bought more. It’s so obvious. Just be patient. They have come a long way and it’s getting approved. We all know this already.
So getting it this far was just luck?
Ha. I’m sure you could get a drug approved with the fda much faster especially after everything they have been through. Moron.
This seems extremely important. Can someone in simple terms explain how this affects NWBO. Ty
Going to zero
This thing is a loser. They sell hardware. They have shrinking margins. The only potential of this business is the service side and they don’t know how to build that end of the business. Going to zero
Yesterday demonstrates that there is real smart, non scared money starting to enter the picture here. The kind of money that knows the value of this and doesn’t even care about all the BS we talk about here all day like AF and fudsters. They know this is just timing now. Don’t sell people.
Green bitches
She might have to reject it otherwise it just starts all over
Stock will go green today
Don’t sell now. This is what they want. Scare you out and they cover.
Everyday the stock pops in the morning then meanders around and try’s to shake people out then goes up at the end of the day. That’s a very good sign something is a foot
Disagree
3 milllion shares traded in an hour and the stock is flat. Hmmm. You think certain people are manipulating and covering.
This is a plainly stupid post. This is how biotechs go. People with no shares that post have an agenda that’s not ethical. Good luck
This is insane. What are we missing. Wtf
I dont think this is because of silence. The 10q says it all.
The bid is 73. Not real
The CMO of nvcr is stepping down after all this “great” news. Yea that’s bullish. Lol
Simply put, your scared because, yes it is. Big time.
The results speak much louder than you do. NWBO will be a SOC in the near future. Possibly bought buy MRk
I’m in. Not much longer
Ha. Yes your honor. We didn’t manipulate the stock price for 2 whole hours one day. Here’s some money can we go now as we have other lives to destroy.
Why is it up today
F’ing shame
What the hell am I missing at this point.
Wait. Is that true that he said someone else actually did it?
I feel like even if the company gets bought out citadel already has some plan to not take a loss. It’s as if they don’t care at all. I’ve never seen anything like this.
Ha. Great reply!
Did something just happen
Oh look. A cure for cancer and the stock doesn’t go up. Nothing fishy going on here. Move along.
Anyone else think this thing is a high level scam. I don’t think they have one 5 yr survivor
Another post designed to scare people out of their shares.
Today was your final shakeout
