Except for one thing.
I read this title, got a little excited, then checked the Nasdaq, Dow, and S&P and all 3 are at all time highs. So is Bitcoin…
What “tanked” exactly. Help me understand this post.
The article does say
stocks linked to some of the biggest pharmaceutical companies—including Moderna, Pfizer, and Novavax—plummeted to some of their lowest points of the year
and it’s true that those particular stocks have gone down, although I wouldn’t call a 4% drop a “plummet”. The headline is still a deliberate lie and most people just read the headline. Shame on the New Republic.
Also, Pfizer’s market cap is about ten times bigger than Moderna’s and Moderna’s is about ten times bigger that Novavax’s. In other words, Pfizer is more than one hundred times bigger than Novavax and putting the two in the same “biggest pharmaceutical companies” category is bullshit.
