"IMUC is rocketing" Cap of $8M and misunderstood news. The news was that the freeze company they are using finally finished their tests and they are now good to go (at least regarding freeze method) with the phase 3 trial which everybody thought started a long time ago. A trial which is not projected to end for many years.

I am not saying the technology is bad. I don't know. I think it actually might be good. But I'm not so sure about any of the technologies that rely on self antigens that are highly expressed on the tumor. And I think all of these 6 synthetic antigens for IMUC are self antigens, not common neo-antigens.

But the spike yesterday appears to me to have been due to a misunderstanding by hair trigger investors that they were announcing good results regarding their actual trial. A trial which hasn't even started yet. I think there will be a correction as the people that jumped in figure this out.

But again... it has a super low market cap, so I am not saying it is a bad investment. I am just doubting the news was worthy of that reaction.
