Hey Stock Region members,
What a Friday! Hope you managed to catch some of the action. We saw some explosive moves that are definitely worth a closer look as we head into the weekend. Here’s what caught our eye today.
$GELS - An 80% Rocket Ship
Wow. Just, wow. $GELS absolutely took off today, closing up a massive 80% at $1.73. What lit the fuse? Gelteq announced they're starting a preclinical trial for a new gel-based antihistamine.
Honestly, this is the kind of news that gets traders excited. The allergy market is huge, and a novel delivery system like a gel could be a game-changer if it proves effective. The market reaction was immediate and fierce. This wasn't just a little pop; it was an explosion.
Now, the big question is: can it hold these gains? A run like this often sees a pullback as early investors take profits. We'll be watching closely to see if it can establish a new support level. This move puts $GELS firmly on our radar, but chasing an 80% gain is risky. The smart play might be to watch for a dip and a sign of consolidation. Still, what a performance!
$PRSO - Mobix Labs Comes Knocking Again
Over in the M&A world, things are heating up for Peraso ($PRSO). Mobix Labs has come back to the table with a sweetened offer to acquire them. The new deal is a mix of cash and stock, which they're pitching as the best of both worlds: "value now and growth ahead."
This is interesting. A revised offer suggests Mobix is serious about getting this deal done. For $PRSO shareholders, this could be a great thing. The cash component provides some immediate, guaranteed value, which is always nice. The stock component means they get a piece of the potential upside if the combined company succeeds.
We're curious to see how Peraso's board responds. Will they accept, or will they hold out for more? These situations can create volatility, so keep $PRSO on your watchlist. A bidding war could send the price higher, but if the deal falls apart, the stock could drop. It’s a classic risk/reward scenario to keep an eye on.
That’s a wrap for today! It’s moments like these that make the market so fascinating. We’ll be back with more updates as they happen.
Have a great weekend,
The Stock Region Team
