FAQ

Why Very Bearish?

The ongoing investigation and allegations of fraud have historically led to severe stock price declines, as seen when companies faced lawsuits like Valeant Pharmaceuticals, which fell significantly post scandal. With GeneDx, stock was already in decline due to stagnation in E&G revenue.

How important is it?

The potential for legal repercussions and historical examples suggest a high likelihood of significant stock movement resultant from this report.

Why Short Term?

The immediate sentiment impact from the investigation could lead to swift stock price drops, similar to how quick declines followed negative earnings reports in previous scandals.
