The barbers that I've been going to have been talking about it for years

Reminds me of an old joke about a patient complaining to the Dr. who told him to treat an injury with warm compress. He did that for a while and it didn't help. One day his maid sees him applying a warm compress to the injury and asked him what he's doing. When he explained, the maid said he got it all wrong, and needs to treat it with a cold compress. He tried that, and in one day he was feeling all better. Angrily he goes again to the Dr. and says "why did you tell me to treat it with warm compress? I did that for a week and it didn't help, and then my maid told me to use cold compress and in a day it was all better!" to which the Dr. responded "I'm sorry, my maid said warm compress".

Alternatively: "You're married? Okay, warm compress" Week later, the guy comes in healed. "I tried a warm compress by my wife insisted that I do cold, and it worked." "Yup, that's why I asked if you are married. Wife always thinks she knows better than the doctor."

Znga holders

Also less obscure names such as T, BTI, PM, MO, CHK, as well as GLD, SLV, etc.

Not a recommendation or opinion. Just stating facts about some widely held assets.

Though very nice move on ZNGA.

The CEO has said that it's not a question of IF they will get the hold removed by the FDA, it's a question of WHEN. They are hosting a conference call this Monday and I imagine many people are thinking that they might reveal a response to the FDA either at or before that call. It's that type of prediction that might be driving the options market.

Still very much a guess as to what will happen in reality.

hold was removed today and stock still down +12%. Any rationale for this or just tied to overall poor market sentiment?

No expert knowledge from me but my guess is that the lack of positive news on items that were promised for 4Q21 disappointed many. The tide has been going out of bio for a few weeks already and no reason for this company to escape that trend.

Another hopeful, VYGR, is not doing anything yet but my research is telling me to start accumulating

Anyone have any thoughts about VYGR?

It's up 70 cents (5.5%) in premarket.

I noticed them in October when they got a deal with pfizer, and I think they're a likely target for future acquisition. The deal itself is worth over $600M but vygr market cap is just $100M (at current prices). Acquisitions can take a long time to complete so I'm not watching the day-to-day with this stock.

Premarket is often an unreliable indicator for stocks with low volume.

Having said that, stock is holding those gains throughout the day. It looks like there were some positive comments from a couple of analysts. Average price target at $32. Anyone showing some long intetrest? What future catalysts would make this move?
