It’s because of the S1 filing that was filed on Friday 4/21. Market Maker Manipulation in my opinion. The PPS got beat down with very low volume.

Yeah, mine are still locked up with TDAmeritrade....I'm not sure that some brokers have not already released them for some people...

Just a guess, because I would have sold at $15 as well....

Scilex Holding Shares Tumble Amid Public-Offering Plans

Shares of Scilex Holding Co. fell more than 30% on Monday after the pain-management company said it planned to raise $300 million in a public stock offering.

Scilex shares, which had surged since its majority owner, Sorrento Therapeutics Inc., filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in February, were recently changing hands at $7.06, down more than 31%.

The Palo Alto, Calif., company, which currently has about 145.8 million shares outstanding, said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it plans to use the offering's proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, adding that it hasn't designated any specific uses for the funds.

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this month that Scilex was exploring a sale of new stock to take advantage of the share-price rally.
