Today’s Picks
1) uniQure N.V. (QURE) - 4/5 Biotech Checklist EPISODIC PIVOT
X-Ray QURE: Industry Group: Biotechnology, Market Cap: 749.48M, Float: 49.01M Short Interest 18.48%, Days to Cover: 7.92, Exchange: NASDAQ
uniQure announced topline 36‑month results from its pivotal Phase I/II study of AMT‑130 in Huntington’s disease. The primary endpoint was met: in the high-dose arm, the composite Unified Huntington’s Disease Rating Scale (cUHDRS) showed a statistically significant 75% slowing of decline versus a propensity score–matched external control (–0.38 vs –1.52) (p = 0.003) These results, if validated, represent one of the strongest disease‑modifying signals ever reported in Huntington’s.
Good chart, High Short Interest, Huge Catalyst. Stock is up 150% Pre Market and will be very volatile but has the potential to keep moving on this data. True Biotech EP Catalyst.
Note that CLPT is a proxy for this. ClearPoint essentially acts as a surgery / procedural partner / delivery enabler for uniQure’s AMT‑130 gene therapy in the brain, providing the tools and guidance infrastructure so the vector can be accurately and safely delivered
Honorable Mention
LAC: Government looking to take a 10% Stake in LAC. This seems to be in early stages but is in theme Critical Minerals and similar to MP. Note that no deal has actually been announced. Which gives me caution on an initial fade here but I like the theme and Chart. $4.50 is a nice Key Level if it goes back there today.
X-Ray LAC: Industry Group: Other Industrial Metals & Mining, Market Cap: 685.62M, Float: 184.49M Short Interest 14.95%, Days to Cover: 3.49, Exchange: NYSE
Market Awareness
Cautious on the market overall. Tightening criteria for new positions. Anything with a good base now is likely a laggard. Lot’s of squats in Breakouts yesterday. We continue to grind up for now. I am still selling strength here and have reduced my size steadily while maintaining the best looking positions I have to have exposure until we turn. As always watching the VIX at times like this.

Everyone must find a setup, timeframe and method that works for them. This list is supposed to educate on the criteria I use and the methods in which I find Stocks in Play. Yours may differ and that is completely okay.
