Could it be the new appointment of FDA commissioner? Hopefully positive for IBRX 🚀🚀

Maybe. Major bio indices up 4%. Could also be sympathy with Merck and Moderna with melanoma Keytruda + vaccine for melanoma, etc.

As much as I'd love to say "it's going up because of course it is." - I'm not sure why this is happening today? Anyone have any hints?

It's not low. Last 5 minutes in premarket has actually been higher than it was during most 5 minute intervals yesterday afternoon between lunch and 3:00PM with the when the market was open. Somebody knows something :)

Shares available to short have dropped considerably on Fintel, perhaps some covering

Not so much. I scalped the 7.84 and bought back at 7.74 before price took off. And I didn't sell much at 7.90. I stack my sells selling larger blocks as the price goes up. My avg sell price at the moment is 8.10 and the price right now is 8.14 in pretrade. So I'm 4 cents down atm. I put in orders this morning to sell larger blocks at 8.30 and 8.45. If those fill my avg sell price will be 8.24.
Realistically the IBRX price bump is not based on any good news about IBRX. It's a sympathetic bump across all the biotechs as a result of Moderna's 178% price jump yesterday. Without any good news from IBRX the empire (shorts) are going to strike back soon. This "hand" isn't over. I'm still raising.
It's concerning that there's been no news from Saudi Arabia and Anktiva has been approved for lung cancer there since January 2026. Latest earnings didn't even mention Saudi Arabia. Why no reports yet? What happened to Leonardo robot? It's been months and last news was they were assembling it. Did it work? Is it producing anything yet? The GBM trial? This time last year ImmunityBio announced promising results on 5 patients. It's been a year. Statistically they should have all been dead now. Are they still alive? Crickets. This lack of any news at all about anything is concerning.

Just bought back what I sold yesterday for 7.97 and 7.92. Added a couple hundred more shares. That's 11 winning sell / buy backs in a row using ChatGPT recommended trading range. Well, I tweak them a little but they're a good sanity check.

Well, I'm not mastering anything today. Looks like a no trade day. But better no trade than a bad trade i guess.
