March 19, 20205 yr On 3/9/2020 at 2:20 PM, Dougal said: Cleveland Clinic spinoff Athersys, whose stock had been putting along around $1.20 down a bit lately, shot up earlier today to $1.93 and then backed off to $1.40 - up 17% Maybe, at last, the FDA has approved a product for them to sell. Edit: Reason for the bump: It is speculated that the coronavirus will spur the approval of Athersys's ARDS treatment. ARDS is the terminal stage of the coronavirus-caused pneumonia. Some Wall Street sage has prediicted $6 for the stock. This tip is looking great. I bought 90 shares at 1.37 and it's trading at 1.73 today. I'm up 25% in 10 days.

I bought in 10 days ago but when it dropped and then rose again, I sold it and made a small amount of money. I sold it because I wasn't confident that ATHX had what it took to break out of this decade-long funk it's been in. But that Seeking Alpha article changed my mind and I immediately got back in. Now, for every penny in stock value that ATHX gains, I gain about $200. Their treatment sounds very promising, that it can save every life if the treatment is available.
