In the BioTech sector, a drug’s development or clinical trial results could influence the stock’s performance, especially for small-cap stocks.  Such positive trial could influence the FDA to approve the drug to be marketed and distributed.  This is the case with Omeros.  On November 3rd, Omeros filed an application for a drug to treat immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy or Berger’s disease.  If the drug receives approval, it could be used to treat up to 200,000 Americans affected by this.  Besides filing the application, Omeros received encouraging clinical reports from their development in other drugs.  The company recieved positive data in Phase 2 for both atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome and hematopoietic stem cell-associated TMA.

These encouraging news not only increased the stock price, but also influenced Maxim Group to give favorable ratings.  The next day, Maxim Group gave a buy rating and a price target of $19.00.  That is more than a potential upside of over 100% from November 4, 2016 closing price.
