We’ve been learning how to pronounce hydroxychloroquine, after President Trump hailed it as a possible “game changer” treatment for corona virus. Last week we covered 2020:Q1 activity in bio-pharmaceutical Gilead, but noted that, as a large company, Gilead would expect to see some baseline stock activity among Congressional portfolios.
The companies behind hydroxychloroquine, however, are generally quite smaller. Sanofi (SNY), Mylan (MYL), Teva (TEVA), Novartis (NVS), Regeneron (REGN), and Amneal (AMRX) have each been in the news for their role in manufacturing the oft-touted drug. This, despite mixed clinical results which led the FDA to declare it not safe for widespread use. Nonetheless, we have seen substantially more trading activity in Q1 and generally more widespread holdings of these companies than we saw for Gilead.
Note that trading activity and holdings are listed separately.
