Why Novavax Stock Is Sinking Today
Shares of Novavax (NASDAQ: NVAX) were sinking 9.6% as of 11:47 a.m. ET on Monday. The company didn't announce any new developments. So what's behind the big decline?
Other vaccine stocks aren't falling nearly as much. Some were even up a little. That rules out the likelihood that declining concerns about the omicron variant played a major factor behind Novavax's drop.
Instead, investors are probably growing more anxious about Novavax's planned filing for U.S. Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of it COVID-19 vaccine NVX-CoV2373. Some investors could also be worried about the quality of Novavax's submission to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) even if it doesn't experience another delay with the filing.
