NVAX - Novavax is one of the main contenders in the race for a Coronavirus Vaccine. This morning the company announced they have received $1.6 Billion in funding from the government under Operation Warp Speed. The funding will aid in the Phase 3 clinical trials of their vaccine candidate, NVX-CoV2373, and include up to 30,000 patients this Fall. Their goal is to also utilize the funding to scale-up manufacturing and delivery of the vaccine as early as late 2020. Shares are up 40% as of this post, and could continue to rise throughout the day. Watch for strong pull-backs and profit-taking, but also good entry-points for quick scalps and a short-term to intermediate hold.
TSLA - Still running off of momentum from last week's deliveries beat. Many investors are awaiting earnings and a milestone announcement of the company being included in the S&P 500.
