Immunology
Last autumn, we published our original thesis on MoonLake Immunotherapeutics a month or so after the aftermath of a brutal selloff. The stock had cratered from $60s to under $7 following a messy Phase 3 VELA readout in September 2025 that confused the market — despite underlying science that looked fundamentally

The biotech sector enters April under significant stress. XBI remains in a pronounced downtrend, and broad market volatility has bled heavily into small-cap names — particularly those approaching binary catalysts.

The FDA just approved the first oral IL-23 blocker for psoriasis — a structural break in immunology that lands precisely when Big Pharma's patent cliff desperation is making de-risked clinical assets more valuable than ever.

Biotech is caught in a crossfire this week. Escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have injected fresh volatility across risk assets, with small-cap biotech taking an outsized hit as institutional capital rotates toward safe havens. The sell-the-sector trade doesn't discriminate between companies burning cash and those sitting
Scanner
Biotech just gave back three weeks of gains in a single session. XBI dropped to $122.62 — virtually unchanged from where it started the year — after a broad risk-off move that hit small-caps harder than large-cap pharma. The catalyst?

Biotech enters the second week of March in a turbulent crosscurrent. The XBI ETF trades near $120–126, up roughly 2–4% year-to-date after a blistering 36% return in 2025 — but the first week of March has tested nerves hard. A dramatic escalation in the Middle East, with US-Israeli strikes
(Editor's note) The evolving geopolitical landscape in the Middle East warrants close attention from market participants. Elevated volatility may pressure near-term returns; however, it can also open selective opportunities for investors with appropriate risk tolerance and a long-term perspective. Above all, we stand in solidarity with those directly
Three months ago, we called INAB a "tier-one scientific innovator trapped in a tier-four financial vehicle." Since then, the company has raised $20 million, appointed a new President, and quietly unveiled what may be its most valuable asset. Here's what's changed — and what hasn't.
(Editor's note : I'm releasing the Week 4 Scanner a bit early, as I'm currently tied up with a new project at work. A quick heads-up on something not covered in this week’s issue: MoonLake Immunotherapeutics ($MLTX) is hosting its Investor Day on February

I apologize for the delay in providing this week’s scanner result due to my travel commitments. Small-cap biotech continues its brutal selloff as sector rotation accelerates into large-cap pharma. The XBI closed the week down 3.2%, extending its drawdown to -18% year-to-date as risk appetite evaporates ahead of
The biotech sector is entering February with mixed signals. XBI traded at $120.23, down 1.06% on the day, pulling back from recent highs near $131.

After a jam-packed December 2025, we enter the second week of 2026 with a sharply divided biotech market. While the XBI struggles to find its footing, our scanner has identified a distinct bifurcation: a cluster of “Pressure Cooker” setups—micro-caps with shrinking cash runways colliding with near-term data—versus well-capitalized
