Pre-Open Signals: 4 Positive and 1 Negative Indications

Never leave an investor uninformed …

I say what others won’t, so you can do what others can’t!


Remember that overnight and pre-open actions’ futures and markets doesn’t necessarily translate into actual trading in today’s market session.

My interpretation of the morning’s numbers is written to be informative; it’s built on what happened to make “it” happen today!

Companies in my headlights – It’s your decision; I provide ideas and context

I post about “indication intelligence” looking toward investment conferences … to assist investors with insight into sector vulnerabilities and strengths.  A dictionary definition of “indicate” refers to something less than a certainty; an indication could be a signal of being oversold or overbought, a recommendation, or grounds for inferring or a basis for believing.

  • Yet again, I am passing on forecasting the daily indications due to the effects of jobless claims, vacation and newest highs after a pillage (Monday) of share pricing … it is still a mix of ups, downs and just uncertainty

Although:

CRISPR Therapeutics (CRSP) closed up +$5.26 after Tuesday’s +$3.62 after Monday’s -$0.98 with a positive +$5.78 or +0.95% pre-open

Lenz Therapeutics (LENZ) closed up +$3.46 after Tuesday’s -$0.12 after Monday’s -$1.11 with a positive +$0.50 or +1.44% pre-open

Ultragenyx Pharmaceuticals (RARE) closed up +$2.00 after Tuesday’s -$0.19 with a negative -$9.19 or -22.18% pre-open

Beam Therapeutics (BEAM) closed up +$1.17 after Tuesday’s +$1.11 after Monday’s -$0.83 with a positive +$1.22 or +5.69% pre-open

Intellia Therapeutics (NTLA) closed up +$1.02 after Tuesday’s+$0.87 after Monday’s -$0.49 with a positive +$0.19 or +1.57% pre-open

 

The BOTTOM LINE: July is here and summer doldrums and vacations and selling before the earnings cycle to pay for the lobster rolls.

“I also hate to be so negative or contrarian but, this is a NO spin zone and truth is its product; I can always be WRONG but, I am mostly EARLY!”

Cell and gene therapy sector equities on Wednesday continued the run to the upside after Tuesday positive close after diving on Monday ….

  • After last week popping multiple positive closes (Thursday, Wednesday, Tuesday and Monday) in this new month, July and Q.

To characterize July, to understand the “flow” of markets, the cell and gene therapy sector and economic karma…

  • 7/9 – Wednesday closed positive with 28 positive, 5 negative and 2 flats
  • 7/8 - Tuesday closed positive with 22 positive, 10 negative and 3 flats
  • 7/7 – Monday closed negative with 6 positive, 27 negative and 2 flats

  • 7/2 - Wednesday closed positive with 24 positive, 7 negative and 4 flats
  • 7/1 – Tuesday closed positive with 21 positive, 11 negative and 3 flats
  • 6/30 - Monday closed positive with 20 positive, 11 negative and 4 flats

 

Reiterating, “There are always some big ifs, especially given some of the headlines that could emanate after a past few months of news flatulence.

  • Some believe in a “June Swoon;” however, June will be no better or worse than any other month. Although, I consider the so-called summer rally after the peripatetic or wandering.”

As always, I brace myself for more volatility, economics and their down trending affect?
