SAVA

Will_Knot_Respond

Oh snap SAVA hooked another newbie lol gl pal!

killerdrgn

So you're saying this time researchers can't also falsify data. Cause SAVA was saying they didn't falsify data, until it was exposed that they did.

killerdrgn

This seems like all the same arguments and price action for SAVA.

Robinw9787

He got credibility for much more than SAVA lol

baroo88

You must have missed the part about him being down almost 100% since he shorted. So much credibility given for shorting SAVA while they were already under investigation for fraud. 

ohgodthehorror95

The short interest is so high, that it could squeeze regardless if redditors from WSB, r/shortsqueeze, etc pile in and buy. Or it ends up falling to nothing. SAVA got away with some schetchy stuff even as the house of cards was collapsing.

Bouddha_420

SAVA announced on a Sunday a webcast the following day at 8am to present P3 topline data, giving no time to market participants (understandably) INMB PRs yesterday for a webcast on Monday (4 days later), making sure this gives sufficient time for anyone who has not yet done their DD to get up to speed, and also giving the opportunity to get as much news coverage ahead of the webcast and get all the spotlight... I really wonder why 🤔

Oh you don't have to tell me about SAVA, I got out at a 90% loss. One of my biggest losses since I have started investing (probably the second biggest by money amount). Actually with CGTX I am mich more interested in their Lewy Body Dementia drug, the phase 2 results were spectacular! Their Alzheimer's trial is just a bonus.

ProblemOk4641

How many have tried and how many have failed to cure Alzheimer’s! Be v careful. Pls take a look at $SAVA. That was always the big hope but completely tanked when the fda rejected.

kennetec

For a minute there I thought the ticker he was spamming was SAVA and I had flashbacks.

kwijibokwijibo

SAVA Got out not long before it went -95% lol

WitchKitty777

Your comment makes no sense. AVXL already released positive results and a peer reviewed article backed by 58 AD specialists. How does this compare to SAVA which failed completely? Did you do any research before making this comment?

anygal

Hi OP, I was in your shoes. I have made $3 million from roughly $40k in a single year even though I always said it was 98% luck (unlike you). You have to understand a couple of extremely important things: - First of all, never give financial advice to others, UNLESS they specifically ask for them and even then tell them to also do their own due diligence on the company you suggest and do not forget that you are a human. - Second, and even more important, never ever blame others for your mistakes. Oh, your brother/friend/father/advisor said that there is a great company and you invested in it $1-200k? It is all on you. Own it. Maybe your due diligence was not deep enough or you checked out the wrong boxes. It was still you who bought in. - Third, and maybe most important of all: if you are taking the route of individual investing then mistakes will happen. Last year I was so highly convicted in a company (SAVA) that I put half of my portfolio in it. It dropped 90% in a single day, because their phase 3 trial failed. Shit happens dude, what you can do is learn from it. - Fourth: there is ALWAYS luck involved, whether you want it or not. Maybe you are investing into a microcap with a star CEO genius and the next day he/she gets ran over by a train. Dramatic example, but these types of shit can happen. So yeah. Do decent due diligence and if you have found a company that you think will grow a lot in value/extremely undervalued even now, then go for it. Do not put in 100k, put in 2-5% of your portfolio. Find 10 companies like that and let the rest of your (50-80%) money sit in bonds/S&P500/All-World/anything less risky compared to individual investing. You can do this dude, you already do better financially than most people!

Well there is also a risk that an affordable disease-modifying wonderdrug comes out, but after the SAVA failure I think that it is definitely at least a couple of years away. In my opinion at this point the biggest risk is that some serious side-effect emerges and affects a lot of Zunveyl patients, so the distribution of the drug gets halted. I have a lot of eggs in this basket, so hopefully this won't happen, but it important to know that it could.

anygal

This company is already approved, launched Zunveyl and selling it since late March. (I have lost a lot of money on SAVA though, thankfully not ALL of my eggs were in one basket)

anygal

I feel you, just a couple of months ago I have lost basically half my portfolio's worth on SAVA :D

peopeopeopeo10

Is WOLF like a UNH scenario or more like a SAVA?

backwardsfrog

SAVA plummeted because it failed to pass phase 3 trials. IOVA's Amtagvi is already FDA approved and has treated hundreds of patients. Main problem right now is in the roll-out, which is significantly less risky.

killerdrgn

Lol this is definitely the next SAVA.

Scared_Inside6556

I bought SAVA at $1 32 and sold out at $50. Then it shot up to over $100 in 2021 and crashed back down to $2. First I felt bad for selling too early, but now I feel like I dodged a bullet. Now I'm riding with WOLF and trying to figure out the best exit strategy when it hits double digits.

HontonoKershpleiter

Watching SAVA and PLRX today, they look ready to move

Ratchet_as_fuck

I've been too busy to research stocks so my investments have been broader. Currently bullish on Bitcoin and certain crypto related stocks like COIN. But don't have any special someone's like SAVA.

Qcuzmih

Man, good for you. You may have found a niche that eventually could be very profitable. CC's are generally the safer type of options but they do tie up cash quite a bit. Those 2 stocks have a bit of scary 1yr track record (e.g. SAVA in Nov'24) which I don't have the stomach for. Hope it keeps doing well for you going forward.

I have no illusions about this being sustainable. Like I said, I'm working on improving my situation. I'm applying for jobs, looking for freelance/gig opportunities, taking free coding lessons online, hell I even checked into the idea of being a paid plasma donor (didn't qualify). Everything I can think of that is in my power to do, I'm trying it. The real list of things I'm trying is too long to be worth typing out. But until something else works, this is what I've got. And it's bringing in *just* enough so far. I may be hanging on by my fingernails, but I'm hanging on. As for what I'm investing in, I have 2 screeners set up to identify covered-call opportunities with the highest yields. I'm looking for underlying equities that are $30 or less, with one screener checking options that are 8 days or less til expiration, and the other at 5 weeks or less. For example, as of 5 seconds before typing this, AREC was selling at $1.33 per share. The $1.5 May 16 call option was going for 0.35/0.40. If I had sold it at $0.35, that would be a return of around 26%. Then, whenever possible I would take whatever I made from that and put it towards something that expires sooner. Just at a glance, looks like SAVA has one that expires next week that would give me a 5% return. That's just an example. Right now I'm waiting on some that expire tomorrow to free up some cash.

SIR_NVAX_A_LOT

Biotech plays are ultra risky. See exhibit A $SAVA Cassava Science.

ProblemOk4641

Everybody has a sob story about bios. Relying on fda to approve or not approve is a big gamble. Non approval or a delay tanks the stock like we saw. I warned a few people on the chat. I always revert back to $SAVA, many people lost all of their savings!

OnundTreefoot

Simufilam was a scam from the start. The selective release of cherry-picked OL data was criminal and I hope Burns and Barbier see some prison time. SAVA people lost a lot of money. I tried to warn retail stock holders on several boards but they simply called me a short. Nice people but emotionally attached to the wrong idea.

PKoderDE

Bothe these stocks fkd me up. One bought at 14$ NMRA and SAVA at 4$

If analysts could predict the stock market, everyone would just follow their advice and make bank. This is clearly not the case. To understand why, you should look into who pays these sell-side analysts to produce predictions and what kind of other incentives there are. For example, analysts don't like to be contrarian it's safer to follow the herd. You won't get fired for setting $TSLA target price to $400 like everyone else but saying it goes to $10 and it won't will just get you fired. Also since you are just starting out. Do not invest into biotech unless you know biotechnology, pharamacology, clinic trials, statistics etc. Most biotech startups go to $0 and there is maybe one in a dozen that does a 20x. If you have no clue about how to detect fraud and nonsense you will get shafted. And no, most redditors won't be able to tell you and be very convincing about their favorite biotech stock. Just study the history of $SAVA (check my comment history) to understand what is going on. It's probably smarter to short biotech stocks rathern than going long.

NoleScole

Sell right now and put it in cash. Then when the market is going up, and at it's all time high buy calls on SNAP, RIOT and SAVA. Then to "hedge" against the risks I'll buy ETFs since they're "up now." Then sell them again when the market goes down. The calls will expire out of money. Rinse and repeat.

Nebula_Whinch

You could have lost it all on SAVA that would be worse… although SAVA still has a little hope left…

Puts on SAVA. it's had a weird runup recently for no reason.

EuphoricAd3824

SAVA. Lost about 85%, There were signs that they would fail but was so emotionally invested that they would be able to solve the alzheimer problem that I stayed invested.

Rocket-Man-LetsGo

I know SAVA is in hot water, but it has had a couple historical king making pumps over the years. Any possibility left for this one?

I have no idea about short-term, but I was always an abysmal short-term trader. This is why now I only invest on fundamentals and for long-term. I honestly think that this should go up a lot (way over the recent $20 premarket high) on the 100% QoQ and YoY revenue growth for Q4, but there could be something that I don't see. Just a couple of months ago I was 99% sure that the SAVA phase 3 trials will succeed, then it failed and I lost like 80+% on that, so sadly I am not always right, even if I think otherwise. Still, I am in and remain in until either fundamentals prove me right or wrong.

curious_skeptic

It doesn't help when you're being run by untrustworthy folks. SAVA was for suckers (and still is!)

FromZeroToLegend

I saw some regard on r/thetagang bragging about his short calls on RGTI. Reminds me of the regard who blew up his port selling SAVA puts before they went down 90%. Truly we’re living in the most regarded of times

FromZeroToLegend

I have. That’s how I made about $70K shorting SAVA.

jusjones314

Maybe I'm stupid and don't understand how short covering works, but maybe I'm not also and SAVA is going to explode up when it hits 2.00 and shorts get closed out. Not back to 30, but maybe to 4.50 or so?

whoisbatman

Didn’t you follow SAVA? I’ll not touch any small Pharma/Biotech companies … it’s literally ticking bomb in the making…

$SAVA

ghostofwinter88

High premium on high IV isnt free money. You're being paid for higher risk. Do you have any experience investing in biotech? Neumora is a loss-making preclinical startup with several therapies for neurological disease in the works. They have several Trial results imminent; one is supposed to release before the end of the year, a few others in q1. The IV is high because people are expecting big swings in the price. If their trials succeeds, great, it will moon. If not, shares tank. They have enough funding until mid 2026, but if this fails they wont havr much time left to do a second trial. This is make or break for the company. This is exactly ehat happebed to SAVA just a few weeks ago. I dont have the technical expertise to judge their therapies chance of success but neurological diseases are notoriously difficult to treat. You are betting on the success of their clinical trials. Once those trial results come out, IV is likely to drop quite hard (IV crush) and hence premiums will also drop. Theres no guarantee you can sell those calls for a good price, or if there will be appreciable volume if those trials fail.

Enough-Mud3116

I have no confidence puts will print before expiration. SAVA shenanigans went for FOUR years before crashing.

St0nkLady

Thank you, fair point, I don't ever think of TSLA having a SAVA moment... but it could one day. I'll look into QYLD.

StrikingMonkey

Right on SAVA. Wrong on HUMA, BTC, DJT and Quantum Computing. Right on GALT, though.

Jdesey9999

what am I missing here.. SAVA puts for 20 strike only went up 100%... with a 90% drop on SAVA I would have expected more.. now on GALT.. it is only a $2 stock,,, I mean what is the best we could hope for.. it goes to under $1.. and then what profit do the puts make?

Jdesey9999

yeah this is pharma bro..... what I cannot believe is that SAVA dropped by 90% and the puts only went up 100%... that easily should be a 10X

clavidk

Yeah his $SAVA short thesis had a 14:1 risk reward while this one is only 1.6:1...

Jdesey9999

Who made that prediction on SAVA cause holy man they got it right. Maybe I’ll just take a put here and see what happens. I’m sick of daytrading

onamixt

Nah, this is nothing like SAVA. DoD needs the technology.

AZXHR1

I don’t speculate a lot and haven’t for the past 1-2 months due to exams. But these past 6 months have been: Broadcom (AVGO) - @ 148$ & 160$. Taiwan Semi (TSM): - @ 175$. NVDA: - @ 105$, 119$, 139$, 115$, 127$ (yesterday). LUNR: - @ 7.9$, sold most now. MSFT: - @ 405$ & 425$. Short SAVA: - @ 25$ in Oct. VOO: - @ 476$ (lucky timing) BRK.B bought at the same time as VOO, only up something like 2-5%. I’m stupidly tech heavy, but it have paid back a ton the past few months. Haven’t gambled on options yet, not planning to either, but i will DEFINITLY use it to dynamically hedge my positions in the future since i finally fixed an appropriate broker to use. Going to learn about heavy options (black-scholes model, etc) & futures this semester, already started on the subjects so i’m ahead for the beginning of the year. Did use IBKR & another one, but have since changed. No plan as of now to buy, but i’ll see, gotta transfer some funds and positions first. Plus the fed meeting is today, which will definitly affect the market depending on the outcome.

underappreciatedduck

Don't do it. GALT is due to announce results, the stock will be worthless afterwards. GALT is SAVA level trash. The December puts are purely speculative because they said they will announce in December and this week is theoretically the only "non-troll" week to release any data. However it could be that it slips into January which is after Shareholder meeting...there is no way they will delay past that. Long story short: Don't be bullish on GALT. You will lose on those Puts.

i got fkd on SAVA and said never again w/biotech. but fer real though. 17jan .50 P is .15 how can i resist. lol

Testing the waters on FTDs: ALT 10C/8P, SAVA 3C/2P strangles expiring 01/03/25... Worked a couple years back with SQQQ and BYND, why wouldn't it work now? Literally nothing makes sense anymore, so this makes perfect sense, right?

Take a bit of solace in the fact that a guy posted on wsb a couple years ago that him and couple other guys took a 34 million dollar position on SAVA

Bad phase test results means your stock drops 50%+ SAVA is a very good recent example.

I'm mad I didn't short $SAVA because I don't trust myself with biotech plays even though i said it's gonna go to 0 in max 2 months... 2 months ago. And it did go to 0 two weeks ago lol. I'm not mad about this. I'm gonna make money

Yes sometimes they(stocks) go down a lot, I’ve seen even 90% percent drop, most recent one is SAVA

what's the the most regarded play right now for SAVA and PL

123supreme123

Ask SAVA shareholders about covered call risk. limited upside. if the stock price keeps declining, you keep collecting premiums, but also bagholding a devaluing stock long term, possibly until they're worthless. See above.

Still thinking about how SAVA went from 32 a pop on nov 21 to three whole bucks now lmao

stinker_pinky

If first time trying a clinical pharma company, take a look at other clinicals that have been around 3 or more years and look back at their all time highs… usually ridiculous ride down the hole because these companies survive by issuing new shares and/or reverse splits. Bottom line: if you get in know when to get out and do it quickly. Look what SAVA did today for reference.

I think you would $SAVA lot of money by not investing in this ticker.
