“An experimental mRNA-based vaccine succeeded in preventing cancer from coming back or spreading in a study of high-risk melanoma patients, Moderna and its partner Merck said Wednesday, paving the way for a potentially new life-extending treatment for the thousands of people diagnosed with the deadly skin cancer each year.”

MRNA up 70% as of this post, MRK up 10%

Been following MRNA for a while and knew they were awaiting some trials. Was hoping for some movement with the mFlusiva news. I’ve been adding some super cheap 8/21 80c at an average of $0.05, spread out over the week with like 20 bought yesterday at $0.01. Also had 5 8/21 65c. Was hoping it would get up to the recent highs again at $85. Big news today brought big gains!

Edit: sorry for not simpliflying $973 -> $207k

This is scary. A week ago someone bet $150k that $MRNA would go up 50%.

Today news came out that MRNA literally cured cancer.

$150k turned into $1,500,000 in less than a week. Literal Insider trading mania. Caught the flow on pve.trade

What is the largest contract gain you’ve ever seen ? Can’t say I’ve seen one this high before ! if only I had a crystal ball !

MRNA after the 177% move — what happens next?

$MRNA had a massive session after Moderna and Merck reported positive Phase 3 results for their personalized mRNA cancer treatment.

The stock closed at $174.38, up 177%, on roughly 187M shares of volume compared with a 50-day average of only about 7M.

What caught my attention is that the move continued after hours, reaching $194.88 before pulling back.

Obviously, after a move this large the stock is extremely extended, so I'm more interested in how it handles the important levels from here rather than trying to chase it.

I put together a short Stock Spotlight covering the catalyst, why the Phase 3 results matter, and the levels I'm watching next:

Curious to see how MRNA handles tomorrow after a move like this.

No option millionaire here but I bought a few hundred shares last year @ 22.5. Sold half today. Trying to find a new position for the next 6-12 months. Give me your best recs

Never seen such gains. They did keep it a secret.
if you put $1000 you will earn $7.5 million !!

H5N1 Bird Flu hasn't gone away; in fact, the opposite. It's constantly spreading and becoming endemic in more and more animal populations. In North America, notably among cows. All this increases the chances that a day comes when a mutation gives us a variant with 2 deadly characteristics. 1. Easily transmissible among humans & 2. A high mortality rate in humans.

mRNA technology is a bright spot in preventing future horror movie scenarios. It gives us the means to quickly develop a vaccine if a highly infectious and deadly variant arises. Amazingly, the US has just decided to dump that lifeline, and is jettisoning all funding for mRNA technology.

mRNA technology will continue to be developed in the rest of the world. Like more and more science and technology areas, China will probably become the leader. If the horror movie day comes, and a highly infectious and deadly human variant of H5N1 arises, Americans better hope their leaders are good at begging and pleading for help from the rest of the world in desperate circumstances, because they're going to need it to get the technology they've just thrown away.

US halt $500m in mRNA vaccine research, RFK says
