Shorts are clearing positions to get out of the way... OR BUlls have not liked the news of the 50/50 split and are selling as well.

This transpire Approximately only 7 minutes after Javits finished speaking. Seems he made a rather large impression on people.
But in Light of BARDA Announcement and my onw projections of PPS value I can't see people selling unless they want to limit potential loss here. It's happening on Swiss exchange as well.
IF it's the former reasoning, we should know later today after swiss closes and if the uptick resumes.
