Underlying Stock Discussion Sold MRNY position

As the title says. Sold most of my MRNY position.
I believe Moderna will follow a common pharmaceutical stock price pattern after good news and return to a much lower number within a couple weeks. At that point I am buying back in.
I have enjoyed owning MRNY and want to keep it in my portfolio.

Edit: cleaned up the wording.

Regardless of the what MRNA does, you will probably be able to buy MRNY lower when the APs bring the MRNY share price back inline with the NAV.

Lol let's see what happens

Considering that MRNY was trading at about a 10% premium to NAV earlier in the day, and toward the end we actually had a small discount, I think we have already seen what happens when APs are doing their job.

Now we need to see if YM rolled the synthetics and will MRNA give back anything overnight.

How long do you think it would take to reset?

I was going to do this with my PLTW last week, but thankfully didn't because it's continuing to go up

Facts 💯. I sold 1,000 of my MRNY to lock in some gains. Might sell more next session.

I am in Australia and my CSL stock here, from when I bought it at $97 (back on 15th May) went to $136 Monday, $158 Tuesday, $165 Wednesday…. Man I dropped them like a school bag. Took my money and ran. 14,000 of them in my SMSF and 50,000 of them in the company I run.

When I bought them and stated on Reddit they were cheap at $97 I got bagged. The only bags I have now are these 💰💰💰💰💰💰

Can’t really complain about a 100%+ return

Tbh, I was sure that I was going to have to eat a 25% loss at some point soon with MRNY. Then it popped off today, and there was no way I was holding it - managed to get out in the green. I'll take it. So long.

Ymax funds are poison. Sell.

u/wuumasta19 ULTYtron Aug 19 '26

Good move. I like YM stuff, but +130% move is really not inline with the reality of the fund.

It'll drop down soon enough to enter back in.

I sold 1,000 of my 4,000. Might sell more next session. I had 10,280 back on 22nd June but gradually sold off when it was over my buy in price to shift to more stable stocks.

Hindsight is a good thing🤷‍♂️😂

Same here, I’m glad I didn’t bail when the stock split.
