The United Nations (UN) High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk issued a call for the international community to abandon punitive drug policies, declaring that the global <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/war-on-drugs">war on drugs has failed.</a>
"The evidence is clear. The so-called War on Drugs has failed, completely and utterly. And prioritizing people over punishment means more lives are saved,&#8221; said Türk while speaking at the ‘Dealing with Drugs II' <a href="https://www.amsterdam.nl/dealingwithdrugs/two/">conference </a>in Warsaw, which brought together leaders and experts from across Europe and the world last Thursday.
The UN commissioner said there is an urgent need for evidence-based, human rights-focused approaches that prioritize health and inclusion over criminalization. "These policies are simply not working—and we are failing some of the most vulnerable groups in our societies."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Radical Shift In Approach</h2>
Türk advocated for treating drug use disorders as public health issues rather than crimes.
"We need to start treating the person, not punishing the drug use disorder," he said, according to a <a href="https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/12/1157836">UN</a> press release.
"Historically, people who use drugs are marginalized, criminalized, discriminated against and left behind—very often stripped of their dignity and their rights,&#8221; he said. "We are destined to fail unless we ensure their genuine participation in formulating and implementing drug policy."
Referring to the devastating human toll of punitive drug laws, Türk called for transformative change. "The so-called war on drugs has destroyed countless lives and damaged entire communities," he said, pointing to record levels of drug-related deaths, rising drug use disorders and illegal drug production.

War On Drugs 'Has Failed, Completely And Utterly': UN High Commissioner Urges Evidence-Based Solutions

<ul>
<li>On June 1, 2020, Emergent announced a $628 million contract with the U.S. government to produce COVID-19 vaccines.</li>
<li>The company started producing vaccine materials for Johnson &amp; Johnson and AstraZeneca at its Baltimore facility in late 2020.&nbsp;</li>
<li>In March 2021, the facility accidentally contaminated Johnson &amp; Johnson vaccine doses with AstraZeneca ingredients.&nbsp;</li>
<li>By April 2021, the FDA halted production at the site, citing quality issues, contamination risks, and poor training.</li>
<li>Following the contamination crisis, Emergent stock price dropped by over 60% by November 2021, erasing over half the company&#8217;s market value in just months.</li>
<li>Shortly after, shareholders filed multiple lawsuits against Emergent, claiming the company misrepresented its vaccine production capabilities and hid serious quality issues.</li>
<li>Emergent BioSolutions recently agreed to pay a $40 million settlement to investors to resolve the lawsuits. Affected investors can now <a href="https://11thestate.com/cases/emergent-investor-settlement">file a claim</a> to receive the payout.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size">Overview</h2>
Emergent BioSolutions (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EBS#NYSE">EBS</a>)&nbsp;secured over $1 billion in government and pharmaceutical contracts during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, in March 2021, workers at its Baltimore facility mistakenly mixed Johnson &amp; Johnson and AstraZeneca vaccine ingredients, contaminating up to 15 million J&amp;J doses and forcing AstraZeneca to discard tens of millions more. This error delayed J&amp;J's vaccine rollout and disrupted global distribution, causing Emergent stock to drop by over 50% by November 2021. Following these events, a group of shareholders sued Emergent, and recently, Emergent agreed to pay a $40 million settlement to all affected investors.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size">How It All Started: Manufacturing Failures&nbsp;</h3>
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Emergent BioSolutions <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/06/11/2046894/0/en/Emergent-BioSolutions-Signs-Agreement-to-be-U-S-Manufacturing-Partner-for-AstraZeneca-s-COVID-19-Vaccine-Candidate.html#:~:text=Development%20services%20will,public%20health%20emergencies.">positioned</a> its Bayview facility as a critical vaccine production asset. In March 2020, the company secured over $1 billion in contracts with Johnson &amp; Johnson and AstraZeneca, including a substantial government Operation Warp Speed contract.
On April 30, 2020, CEO Robert Kramer declared during an earnings call that the company had &#8220;proven manufacturing capabilities&#8221; and was prepared to scale up quickly to meet the demands of vaccine production.&nbsp;
In July 2020, following the AstraZeneca agreement, Emergent further bolstered its claims in a press release, with Kramer declaring, &#8220;Emergent is driven by our desire to advance solutions that will make an impact on this pandemic&#8220;.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="113" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/20162558/image_2024-11-20_20-25-24-1024x113.png" alt="" class="wp-image-3463" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/20162558/image_2024-11-20_20-25-24-1024x113.png 1024w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/20162558/image_2024-11-20_20-25-24-300x33.png 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/20162558/image_2024-11-20_20-25-24-768x85.png 768w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/20162558/image_2024-11-20_20-25-24.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
The company&#8217;s CDMO business unit head, Syed T. Husain, added that &#8220;Emergent stands ready alongside leading innovators to rapidly deploy our CDMO services to help meet the substantial demand for a vaccine.&#8220;
By early 2021, Emergent shares were trading above $90, fueled by high expectations for the company's role in vaccine production.&nbsp;
However, despite positive public messaging, internal audits and inspections in the summer of 2020 uncovered serious issues at Emergent BioSolutions' manufacturing facilities.&nbsp;
Reports highlighted poor staff training, equipment failures, and inadequate quality control measures, revealing long-standing problems within the company&#8217;s operations. One audit found that &#8220;the flow of workers and materials through the plant was not adequately controlled to prevent mix-ups or contamination.&#8221; Another audit discovered that a manager had &#8220;knowingly deviated&#8221; from standard procedures.
After that, in November 2020, AstraZeneca representatives visiting Emergent&#8217;s Bayview facility raised concerns about poor oversight and GMP compliance.&nbsp;
Emergent&#8217;s VP of Manufacturing acknowledged these issues, mentioning trash buildup in hallways and lapses in GMP standards. An external consultant also warned that the facility was &#8220;NON-CGMP compliant&#8221; and at regulatory risk, but production still continued.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size">Contamination Crisis at Emergent's Facility</h3>
In March 2021, a major contamination incident at Emergent's Baltimore facility revealed significant oversight failures. Millions of Johnson &amp; Johnson vaccine doses were mixed with AstraZeneca ingredients, an issue initially detected by Johnson &amp; Johnson's lab in the Netherlands, not Emergent. 
The contamination forced the disposal of tens of millions of AstraZeneca doses and delayed the delivery of approximately 100 million Johnson &amp; Johnson doses during a critical phase of the pandemic.&nbsp;
Following this disclosure, Emergent issued a press release, stating that their &#8220;quality control systems worked as designed&#8221; and that discarding a batch of bulk drug substance &#8220;occasionally happens during vaccine manufacturing.&#8221;&nbsp;
However, that same day the Associated Press released FDA documents obtained through FOIA requests, revealing a history of quality control issues at Emergent&#8217;s facilities dating back to 2017.
FDA leaders reported that the company &#8220;hired a lot of individuals not as familiar with vaccine manufacturing that did not have adequate training.&#8221;&nbsp;
Inspectors found several issues at Emergent's facility, including mismanaged waste, peeling paint, and cluttered equipment. They also discovered that some quality checks were removed from vaccines before an FDA visit in February 2021.&nbsp;
Later, it came to light that Emergent had been forced to destroy vaccine materials equivalent to nearly 400 million doses — much more than the previously reported 85 million.
The situation worsened on November 4, 2021, when Emergent announced that the Department of Health and Human Services had cancelled its $628 million contract, requiring the company to reverse $86 million in Q3 2021 revenue and reduce its contract backlog by $180 million.
The impact on investors was clear as Emergent's stock price dropped by over 60%, from more than $120 in early 2021 to below $45 by November 2021.
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXeIIZlLXwwooy_Zuo42Ez05mIVStfl0HOwUqkb9SlYYDcrmYOLAsAZF0seiSDHOA3ONme9YjpCgNgGOq0vGoQc-apf2vdPLSufxtKjA92BHR-VPz2Bk12OYqeUoyRBv-UZ97kKnZU0RrwHGwCBSKGT8671r?key=KYxIxnLygQzR6Mc3yd4O5SaK" alt="" style="width:624px" /></figure>
These disclosures and the sharp drop in stock price led shareholders to file multiple lawsuits against Emergent, accusing the company of misrepresenting its vaccine production capabilities and concealing serious quality issues.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size">Resolving The Case</h3>
After three years of legal proceedings, in September 2024, Emergent agreed to pay $40 million to settle the lawsuit from shareholders. If you invested in Emergent, you may be eligible to <a href="https://11thestate.com/cases/emergent-investor-settlement">file for a portion</a> of the settlement to recover your losses.
As of now, Emergent BioSolutions has made significant progress in its recovery, securing a $50 million settlement with Johnson &amp; Johnson and driving a broader transformation under CEO Joe Papa. In Q3 2024, the company saw a 9% revenue increase to $293.8 million and secured vital government contracts, including a $250 million order to produce vaccines for anthrax, botulism, and smallpox. It also sold its Camden facility for $30 million to streamline operations. However, its stock remains far below previous highs, trading at $8 in November 2024 — a 93.6% decline from its $125 peak in 2021, showing that there is still a long road ahead for a recovery.

World Health Organization Says Mpox Continues To Constitute A Public Health Emergency Of International Concern

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Will Fix It&nbsp;</h3>
In my previous post (<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2024-11-06/post-trump-victory-trade">The Post-Trump Victory Trade</a>), I highlighted a half dozen stocks in which my subscribers and I had positions that had double digit gains the day after Trump&#8217;s election victory. In response, a commenter wrote, &#8220;Well, I didn&#8217;t like any of those trades, so I will stick to my Gold and Silver.&#8221;.&nbsp;
As it happened, the day after Trump&#8217;s victory, was also the day of the &#8220;<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/the-market-ear/great-gold-puke">Great Gold Puke</a>&#8220;, as The Market Ear put it:&nbsp;
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><h3 class="wp-block-heading">All good things&#8230;</h3>
&#8230;.must come to an end. Gold is puking, putting in the biggest down candle in forever as it breaks below the short term trend channel. The 50 day comes in around $2635, and the bigger trend line around $2600.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="532" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-1024x532.png" alt="" class="wp-image-3141" style="width:624px" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-1024x532.png 1024w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-300x156.png 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-768x399.png 768w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure> 
<cite>Refinitiv</cite></blockquote>
Why would gold tumble after Trump&#8217;s victory? Perhaps there&#8217;s a clue in the Trump campaign&#8217;s slogan, &#8220;Trump will fix it&#8221;. One of the things Trump will fix is the elevated geopolitical risk the world has seen over the last few years, starting with the Russia-Ukraine War, and extending to the wars in the Mideast between Israel and Hamas, and Israel and Iran, and tensions between China and Taiwan.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Geopolitical Risk Is Already Starting To Ebb</h3>
The geopolitical risk premium is a key factor influencing the price of precious metals like gold and silver, as they are traditionally seen as a haven during times of instability and war. Given that, note what has happened since Trump&#8217;s victory:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Hamas <a href="https://x.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/1854516506169585796">has called for</a> an end to its war with Israel. </li>
<li>Russian President Vladimir Putin&nbsp;<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/putin-praises-courageous-trump-hints-ukraine-talks-phone-call-likely">has congratulated Trump</a>&nbsp;on his victory, praised Trump&#8217;s bravery during the first assassination attempt on him, and expressed an openness toward talks aimed at ending the Ukraine war. Peace between the U.S. and Russia would facilitate peace in the Mideast and elsewhere, given Russia&#8217;s ties to Iran, China, and other key countries.&nbsp;</li>
<li>China&#8217;s President Xi <a href="https://x.com/XHNews/status/1854396381982830623">also extended congratulations</a> and an olive branch to Trump.</li>
</ul>
If Trump succeeds in ending the wars in Eastern Europe and the Mideast, and calming tensions across the Taiwan Strait, that would further reduce gold&#8217;s geopolitical risk premium.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Deflationary Potential Of Trump&#8217;s Domestic Policies </h3>
You&#8217;re probably thinking now that even if peace starts to break out, high inflation is baked into the cake because of government spending, and that should boost the price of gold. Consider, though, the deflationary potential of Trump&#8217;s proposed policies, and those of his close allies.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Trump&#8217;s tariffs. Critics of tariffs often point out that they are, effectively, a regressive tax on domestic consumers. This is actually true, and like all regressive taxes, they are deflationary. Just as throwing money and low income Americans boosted inflation during COVID, an effective regressive tax on them would cool inflation.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Trump&#8217;s deportations.&nbsp;Deporting millions of illegal aliens&#8211;or deporting a smaller number and prompting millions more to self-deport&#8211;will have a deflationary effect on sectors such as housing, as there will be fewer consumers competing for the same number of homes.&nbsp;</li>
<li>RFK, Jr.&#8217;s campaign against chronic disease. Every case of diabetes and other chronic diseases RFK, Jr. can prevent with changes to American food policy means a reduction of tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in health care spending. That would cool healthcare inflation.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Elon Musk&#8217;s Department Of Government Efficiency. Elon Musk has spoken about slashing the number of federal employees (something Vivek Ramaswamy pointed out could be done while avoiding Civil Service regulations) and cutting government waste. That would be deflationary too.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Much Of This Is Likely To Happen&nbsp;</h3>
We all remember how Trump was stymied in his first term, but he is in a much stronger position now. He won a landslide victory, and is now the undisputed leader of the Republican Party. Plus, he has much smarter, and more competent people on his side now, such as Elon Musk. None of this is particularly good for gold and silver prices.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Taking My Own Counsel&nbsp;</h3>

India's Business Standard Reported New Study Claims Mpox Clade la Has Evolved To Spread From Human To Human, Citing October 24 Uploaded Paper On Virologica

Despite claiming over 100,000 lives annually, the U.S. overdose crisis received minimal attention during the recent presidential campaign, which concluded with Donald Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/11/41776510/cannabis-industry-leaders-react-to-trump-victory-expect-changes">victory</a>. This oversight comes as overdose deaths continue to rise among Black and Indigenous Americans, revealing a growing racial disparity in the epidemic.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Rising Racial Disparities In Overdose Deaths</h3>
According to a Stateline analysis of federal data <a href="https://kentuckylantern.com/2024/11/04/overdose-deaths-are-rising-among-black-and-indigenous-americans/">covered</a> by Tim Henderson, overdose deaths among white Americans have declined, but deaths among people of color have increased. In 2023, Black and Native Americans experienced overdose death rates of 49.5 and 39.8 per 100,000 people, respectively, surpassing white rates. Health experts attribute this to a lack of targeted resources and funding in nonwhite communities.

</ul>
&#8220;It is our contention that Black harm reduction isn't about drug use, it's about the harms of not being a white person in this country,&#8221; said Tracie Gardner, co-director of the National Black Harm Reduction Network. Communities of color often struggle to access harm reduction services, which are predominantly designed and led by white institutions.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Minimal Campaign Attention</h3>
Throughout the campaign, Trump and his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/10/41299527/kamala-harris-defends-immigration-policy-at-latino-town-hall-criticizes-trumps-border-stance">focused largely on border security and drug enforcement</a> rather than harm reduction strategies.&nbsp;
As a recent Fitler Mag <a href="https://filtermag.org/overdose-presidential-election/">article</a> notes, Trump&#8217;s official platform emphasized escalating the drug war, proposing measures like deploying the U.S. Navy to impose a &#8220;full Fentanyl Blockade&#8221; and cracking down on cartels. Harris, while mentioning a commitment to ending the opioid epidemic, highlighted her background in prosecutions and supported increased border security measures.
Public health experts criticize this approach for failing to address the root causes of the crisis. Kassandra Frederique, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance, noted that efforts have &#8220;ultimately fallen short of the scale and magnitude this crisis demands.&#8221;

Amid this policy void, demand for naloxone—commonly known by the brand name Narcan—is increasing sharply. Over 250 companies, universities and organizations have pledged to provide free doses of the overdose-reversing medication, <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2024/10/08/nx-s1-5145832/250-companies-schools-and-organizations-pledge-to-provide-overdose-antidote-naloxone">according</a> to NPR. Major corporations like Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), United Airlines (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) and the National Hockey League are participating in this national effort to curb fatalities.
White House officials noted that the wider availability of naloxone has contributed to a recent 10% decline in overall overdose deaths. &#8220;From airlines to classrooms, from offices to sports arenas, we are grateful to have hundreds of voluntary commitments from organizations and businesses across the country,&#8221; stated Dr. Rahul Gupta, the Biden administration&#8217;s drug czar, prior to the election.
However, experts caution that fatalities remain high, especially among marginalized communities.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Emergent BioSolutions Sees Stock Surge</h3>
Meanwhile, Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EBS#NYSE">EBS</a>), the manufacturer of Narcan, has seen its stock perform strongly in 2024. With a diverse portfolio addressing public health threats, the company&#8217;s financial recovery and strategic government contracts position it favorably in the market, <a href="https://www.insidermonkey.com/blog/emergent-biosolutions-inc-ebs-a-standout-among-best-performing-cheap-stocks-in-2024-1371074/">noted</a> Insider Monkey. EBS reported significant revenue growth and reduced debt, contributing to a year-to-date share price gain of over 280%.

Analysts attribute part of Emergent&#8217;s success to the increasing recognition of naloxone&#8217;s importance in combating the overdose crisis. As more organizations stock Narcan, the company&#8217;s role becomes ever more critical.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Barriers To Harm Reduction Access Persist</h3>
As the new administration takes office, the neglect of the overdose crisis in election debates raises questions about the future of <a href="http://benzinga.com/topic/harm-reduction">harm reduction</a> policies under the new administration. Advocates urge the government to prioritize effective strategies over punitive measures.

Revenues from Narcan&nbsp;(naloxone HCl) Nasal Spray decreased 33% to $95.3 million, primarily driven by the discontinuation of prescription Narcan&nbsp;due to the launch of over-the-counter Narcan&nbsp;in the third quarter of 2023 and lower Canadian retail sales, partially offset by higher sales of OTC Narcan.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Day After</h3>
I wrote a post on ZeroHedge this morning ("<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2024-11-06/victory">Trump Victory</a>") which included a number of reactions to Trump's astonishing victory last night. Trump became the first President to win in non-consecutive terms since Grover Cleveland, 127 years ago. Here, I'll confine myself to some market-related comments.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Betting Markets</h3>
In&nbsp;<a href="https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/betting-on-the-election">a post</a>&nbsp;here a couple of weeks ago, I wrote about betting on the election.
<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized"><a href="https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/betting-on-the-election"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="917" height="626" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084434/Betting-On-The-Election--1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3043" style="width:624px" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084434/Betting-On-The-Election--1.jpg 917w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084434/Betting-On-The-Election--1-300x205.jpg 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084434/Betting-On-The-Election--1-768x524.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 917px) 100vw, 917px" /></a></figure>
I mentioned that I had Trump to win at 44 cents on PredictIt, and a couple of bets on a new site,&nbsp;<a href="http://kalshi.com/sign-up/?referral=0297c7e8-2fe6-4b35-8f98-0366b8795934">Kalshi</a>:
<ol>
<li>Trump to win Wisconsin at 52%.</li>
<li>Republicans to win the White House, House, and Senate at 47%.</li>
</ol>
After that post, I added a few additional bets. One was "Kamala No" on PredictIt, when that dropped to 48 cents. I cashed out of my PredictIt bets at 97 cents and 98 cents, respectively, for gains of a little over 100% before PredictIt's 5% exit fee.
Trump won Wisconsin; all the House races haven't settled yet, but it looks like our Republican sweep bet will cash too.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Stocks Benefiting From The Trump Win</h3>
Six names we have positions in posted double-digit gains the day after Trump's win:
 Centrus Energy Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEU#NYSE">LEU</a>). This is a uranium name we opened a call spread on last week.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><a href="https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/trade-alert-the-nuclear-option"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="882" height="606" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084722/The-Nuclear-Option.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3044" style="width:624px" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084722/The-Nuclear-Option.jpg 882w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084722/The-Nuclear-Option-300x206.jpg 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07084722/The-Nuclear-Option-768x528.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 882px) 100vw, 882px" /></a></figure>
Robinhood Markets, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>). That was the crypto-related name in our Nuclear Option post above, and our trade was buying the $32 strike calls on it for $2.30. Those calls were trading at $4.90 as of Wednesday's close. 
Bit Digital, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTBT#NASDAQ">BTBT</a>). That's the Bitcoin miner with operations in Ethereum staking and AI that was one of our two lottery tickets in this post in September.&nbsp;<a href="https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/trade-alert-two-lottery-tickets"></a>
Tesla, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). We opened another trade on Tesla earlier this week. That was the less-contrarian trade in this post. Our Tesla trade is a call spread which will generate a 300% gain if Tesla closes above $350 per share at the end of next year.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><a href="https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/trade-alert-ai-da2"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="886" height="597" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085048/Trade-Alert-AI.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3045" style="width:624px" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085048/Trade-Alert-AI.jpg 886w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085048/Trade-Alert-AI-300x202.jpg 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085048/Trade-Alert-AI-768x517.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 886px) 100vw, 886px" /></a></figure>
Emergent BioSolutions, Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EBS#NYSE">EBS</a>). Our trade here was buying the $9 strike calls expiring on December 20th for $2.05. EBS beat earnings on Wednesday and was up 24.46% after hours.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><a href="https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/trade-alert-biotech"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="888" height="596" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085412/Biotech.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3046" style="width:624px" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085412/Biotech.jpg 888w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085412/Biotech-300x201.jpg 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085412/Biotech-768x515.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 888px) 100vw, 888px" /></a></figure>
Powell Industries, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/POWL#NASDAQ">POWL</a>). Our most recent trade here was a call spread betting on POWL being above $300 by next May. It closed at $347 today.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><a href="https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/trade-alert-top-names-879"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="885" height="595" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085455/POWL.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3047" style="width:624px" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085455/POWL.jpg 885w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085455/POWL-300x202.jpg 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/07085455/POWL-768x516.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 885px) 100vw, 885px" /></a></figure>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stocks That Tumbled The Day After</h2>
<ol>
<li>Super Micro Computer, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>). That was the contrarian trade mentioned in the same post with Tesla above. Our bet was that most of the bad news was in the rearview. So there was a good chance the stock would bounce after earnings on Tuesday. Unfortunately, they didn't offer any timeline about getting a new auditor and the stock plummeted on Wednesday.</li>
<li>Rivian Automotive, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>). This EV maker was in a number of analysts "Harris basket" of stocks. Meanwhile, they had Tesla in their Trump baskets, and it plummeted about 9% after Trump won. We opened a position in this one back in April, buying the $15 strike calls expiring in January for $1.84. Fortunately, we sold half of those calls at $5.55 in July, for a 202% gain. So we are playing with the house's money on this one. And the company reports earnings after the close on Thursday. Maybe they'll have some good news then. </li>
