Investing in a thinly traded stock is confounding.
This morning Merck is down for a few reasons Moderna is down due to concerns about vaccine effectiveness against the new variant. Pfizer is up (IMHO) due to faith in it's vaccines (relatively) but perhaps more so due to faith in it's covid antiviral (a PI)
Who else is up? AVIR at 8.06 this moment up 3%+ presumably an on hopes of it's Covid antiviral will work 225K shares traded.
And then there's ENTA which sat forever at -1.44 cents and 5800 shares traded.
You have to think of it as an investment opportunity. I do.
