Joseph Schwartz’s rating is based on several considerations that provide a compelling case for Avidity Biosciences. Despite the stock’s significant decline from its previous highs due to various market pressures and competitive challenges, Schwartz highlights the company’s current valuation as an attractive entry point for investors. The drop in stock price, coupled with the company’s market cap adjustment, has positioned Avidity Biosciences as a potentially undervalued opportunity, especially with its robust pipeline poised for an important 2025.
Additionally, Schwartz acknowledges the concerns investors have about competition, regulatory clarity, and potential adverse events in clinical trials. However, he suggests that these factors are well-reflected in the current stock price and that the upcoming year holds significant potential catalysts that could drive value. With anticipated developments in their key programs targeting myotonic dystrophy type 1, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Schwartz maintains a positive outlook, reiterating a price target that suggests substantial upside from the current levels.
RNA’s price has also changed moderately for the past six months – from $44.990 to $33.020, which is a -26.61% drop .
