Yesterday, when digging a little deeper in the Moderna “coronavirus vaccine” press release and media frenzy, we asked if the company’s market moving “news” of a coronavirus vaccine wasn’t just one giant “bait and switch“, especially with the company – whose insiders are best known for consistently dumping their own stock… … immediately capitalizing on the massive move higher to sell over $1BN in MRNA shares.
