Today Israel celebrates 72th Independence Day. The various newspapers are overflowing with interviews with dignitaries in their respective fields. Dr Arnon definitely deserved a double spread interview for her past achievement in the Copaxone drug development.
The Marker is a business oriented newspaper with high standards, but of course its raison etre is to make money.
The pump imo was due to the Covid hysteria, although as clarified there is no connection between these two ailments. Due to social distancing many people are at home idly reading newspapers and jumping to (wrong) conclusions.
IMO the stock will retrace due to profit taking and realizing BVXV is NOT in the Covid playground.
