Citron warns on COVID-19 play Inovio

As if informed investors need any additional words of warning on high-risk companies caught up in the coronavirus frenzy, Citron Research tweeted this morning about the dubious claims made by Inovio Pharmaceuticals (INO +10.6%), up eight-fold since early October 2019, that it designed a COVID-19 vaccine in three hours after receiving the genetic sequence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Citron regards its claim as “ludicrous” and “dangerous,” adding that the SEC should suspend trading in the company’s shares.
Unsurprisingly, Citron believes the stock will promptly return to the $2-range after the market’s animal spirits subside.
Informed investors also know that Inovio is not alone here.
