This is coming up soon. Price went up substantially today and after hours. Calls are expensive.
BYSI has the potential to skyrocket if FDA approves. It’s a first in class drug so we will see massive profits if in favor of approval. Safe play is to sell before the decision, risky play is to ride the decision.
FDA has been missing a lot of deadlines due to major backlogs and bringing stocks down with it… Caveat Emptor.
Too late hop on, on monday ?
Nope, decision date is the 30th. But while there is a big potential upside, be careful, Dec. calls will lose almost of their value (and they are expensive) if it’s not approved.
Or if it’s delayed. I closed my calls on Friday for +30%, just riding shares now.
It looks like BMY and MRK both have PDUFA dates on Sunday/Monday.
I’ve noticed the last two weeks that their options usually move around 100% with just a 1% gain on the stock. Plus both stocks have a small options chain. BMY only extends 10% for next week and MRK 30%.
I admittedly know nothing about their tests, the likely hood of approval or how much they could be expected to move on approval.
However, history shows that even a small jump on any sort of approval could be great for these options.
Just saying…if anyone wants to look into them. I’m buying some lottos.
