Prescription for Gains!Recursion Pharmaceuticals is building strong bullish momentum, with a gap forming around the $6.00 level. A breakout above the $8.16 resistance would confirm further upside, targeting the $9.99 weekly resistance. This setup provides an attractive risk-to-reward ratio, with downside managed through a stop-loss at $5.49.
In the longer term, RXRX could extend its bullish run to $15.72, supported by the company’s innovative approach to drug discovery using AI and machine learning. As Recursion leverages technology to streamline the development of new therapies, it has positioned itself as a leader in biotech innovation. The increased adoption of AI in healthcare and RXRX’s strategic partnerships further support its potential for strong revenue growth and long-term value.
With both technical momentum and a compelling growth narrative in biotech, RXRX is well-positioned to reach $9.99 in the near term, with an eye on $15.72 as a longer-term target.

SIGA Technologies Analysis 6/24Disclosure: As of 6/24 I am long SIGA Technologies NASDAQ:SIGA
SIGA Technologies is a bio pharmaceuticals company that is in the public health market. They develop and sell products to treat Smallpox, Ebola, and other public health threats.
Management Effectiveness: The company has been consistently profitable since 2018, with margins averaging 30%-40% in recent years with only a few unprofitable quarters.
Very quickly after the company became profitable they brought the debt to essentially nothing.
In recent years the company's return on equity has been above 25%, indicating their research spending is used effectively.
The company has a large cash position for potential investment in research.
Valuation The company trade at a P/E of 6 and a p/cf of 8 they have paid special dividends for several years and could potentially implement a stock buyback program, at least that is something I would be considering if I were a board member (Disclosure: I am not a board member obviously).
Summary NASDAQ:SIGA is a well run company, trading at an excellent valuation if you are willing to take the risk of a concentrated portfolio of products and volatile returns. They have several positive tailwinds including: International Expansion, Re-Valuation of the company due to implementation of a dividend or buyback policy, and increased public health awareness by international governments.
Roche Analysis 6/26DISCLOSURE: as of 6/26 I have no open position in SIX:RO
Roche is a Swiss based pharmaceutical conglomerate with a diverse range of operations and brands. The company has a long history of profitability and high returns on investment.
Management Effectiveness: Roche has been around since 1896 and has had consistent growth over the economic cycles. Return on equity has been averaging 40% and although margins have compressed in recent years the company remains highly profitable and in a stable leverage position.
Valuation: With a price to earnings of 20 and price to cash flow of 15 if looks potentially undervalued. I like companies that have a return on equity double that of the price to earnings, and that rule of thumb is met in this case.
Summary: Roche looks like a quality company to potentially take some profits and diversify from my NASDAQ:SIGA position. However, for now it will stay on the watch list. I will be looking at OANDA:USDCHF as well as the valuation metrics I mentioned above.

XBI biotech ETF EW count optionsSharing an intermediate view of the EW count options for XBI.
The short-term bullish range is $97-$98.
The short-term bearish target ranges are $89 - $88.50 and $87.
The bearish count, in red, drops the price to $81ish as first support. If, $81 range does not hold, $72 is the C wave target.
In the meantime, I anticipate a lot of chop in the range from $86 - $100 in the next couple months until a rate cut occurs.
As speculation of a rate cut increases, the price can begin to gravitate toward $104. When an interest rate cut is proposed, XBI will blast to the $140s but I am reserved about this outcome at this time.

GEVO - The Sleeping Nephilim Giant Alarm Triggered (BIOFUELS)GEVO is priming for a big comeback. It's a sleeping giant. Has been on a down trend close to 2 decades.
For pennies on the dollar, this is an opportunity equivalent to mining bitcoin in 2009 and holding your bag for a very long time.
This is a long-term hold. 5+ years.
Someone believed in the Biofuels technology at one point where a share was traded over $200k.
Now it is the time, with government support and incentives... meaning us the people will basically fund this.
It's pretty evident that everything is pointing to 'Going Green' with the global warming agenda.
The way I see it, is if a carbon tax is implemented, and SAF Net Zero fuels comply with the fuel regulations on the 'carbon footprint' and it is exempt from taxation... well wouldn't all airlines look to supply their airplanes with SAF net zero fuel? As well as GEVO getting government incentives for clean biofuels? Any whom the main agenda is to have everything operating with SAF by 2050.
On the Technical side...
Basic indicators like MacD and RSI are the most bullish I have ever seen in any chart in any time frame. The picture is clear, the white forecast candles are for goofin' only.
Although it relies on the summit carbon solutions pipeline project, if all goes as planned it should start by 2025, where I am confident GEVO will also break ground shortly after EOY 2026. This is where it should be trading at a key point to what the chart is printing.
Production of SAF sometime in 2028 and more funding for a larger expansion to just take this back to it's previous years.

ATAI - 2 potential paths to $5After successfully surpassing the previous swing high with considerable volume, attaining a fresh 52-week peak of $2.85, and witnessing the 50-day moving averages intersecting the 150 and 200 SMAs, ATAI appears poised for a reversal from its downtrend.
**Potential Scenarios:**
**Scenario 1: Triangular Consolidation (Orange)**
ATAI may undergo consolidation within a triangular pattern marked by points A to E. This consolidation phase could indicate a period of indecision in the market as buyers and sellers balance their positions. Typically, triangular patterns suggest that volatility is decreasing, leading to an impending breakout. If this pattern unfolds as expected, a breakout is anticipated around mid-August, potentially triggering a significant move in the stock price.
**Scenario 2: Corrective Pattern (Yellow)**
Alternatively, the stock might experience a corrective phase represented by an A-B-C pattern. This corrective pattern could indicate a temporary pullback or retracement within the broader uptrend. Such corrections often serve to alleviate overbought conditions and provide an opportunity for new buyers to enter the market. In this scenario, ATAI is expected to establish a higher low by mid-August, reinforcing the bullish momentum and setting the stage for further upside potential.
**Price Targets:**
Anticipated Fibonacci targets include 1.414 ($4.45) or 1.616 ($5.54) to be achieved by year-end. These Fibonacci extensions are commonly used by traders to identify potential levels of resistance or support based on previous price movements. Additionally, a more ambitious target exceeding $15 within the next few years is also envisaged. This long-term target reflects the potential for ATAI to capitalize on emerging trends and developments within its industry, driving sustained growth and shareholder value over time.
Gilead Sciences (GILD): Chances in Pharma Beyond TechGilead Sciences (GILD): NASDAQ:GILD
We're aiming to diversify our portfolio beyond just tech stocks and the tech sector. We're now focusing on companies in the pharmaceutical industry, such as Gilead Sciences. Analyzing the weekly chart, we observed the largest surge since 2010 for Wave (3). We believe we've also completed Wave (4) at $56.56. The peak was at $123.27, marking our all-time high.
This figure is our target for the minimum achievement for Wave 3. It's crucial, and significantly, we anticipate a high selling pressure at this level. Zooming in, we presume we are in Wave 2, expected to conclude between 61.8% and 78.6% retracement. This positions us with a relatively favorable risk-to-reward ratio on the daily chart. Should we drop below this 78.6% retracement level, we could fall back to $56. If that happens, we'll face a problem, potentially falling further for Wave (4) to a maximum of $30. If this decline doesn't materialize, we'll continue to anticipate an upward movement.
Hold it like a rock - Roche, what an opportunity.Hi, 1PERCENT here.
Roche Holding, a Swiss multinational biopharma company. It is like the Apple of biopharma.
There were only 3 pull backs greater than 30% in the history of the stock.
2002 ~ 2003: -45.33%
2006 ~ 2011: -52.40%
2014 ~ 2018: -30.24%
2022 ~ present: -44.89%
It is at the support zone that initiated the +95% move up from 2018 to 2022, and also is testing the trendline connecting the lows in 2003 and 2011.
If you live in the US, you might want to have some exposure to Swiss assets (CHF or stocks) and Gold & silver.
The US dollar is losing value against the Swiss Francs in the long term.
Otherwise, Roche stock price must hold up at the current support zone , otherwise, we are open for a 30+% drop to the next support zone, which will be of course, an absolute bargain.
Also, it looks like the previous turnovers from the lows were always accompanied by the MA36 and MA12 crossing (MA12 over MA36)
However, we do not have it here yet. So, let's keep an eye on it.
That's it.

Pfizer (PFE): Shocking Downward Spiral - $11 Target In Sight?Pfizer (PFE): NYSE:PFE
At Pfizer, we believe that Wave (2) has not yet completed because Wave B precisely hits the 138% level and structurally does not make sense unless we see a breakthrough of the invalidation zone of the potential subordinate Wave (i) at about $41.62. However, we must form at least a double bottom at $11, which is our minimum expectation for Pfizer. For the downward movement, we need to examine more closely how far it can actually fall, but $11 is our minimum expectation.
The only scenario that would make sense here might be a short position for a possible subordinate Wave (iv) between $36.9 and $41.62. Subsequently, for the overarching Wave ((iii)), we expect another decline to a minimum of $22.64 and, in our opinion, a maximum of $9.56. Entering a long position could be too risky over a longer period. For those looking to trade in the short term, there might be a bottom at $25.61, leading up to the potential target zone for Wave (iv). After that, we expect the downtrend to continue, and personally, we are not positioning ourselves long due to the significant risk.
