Stock Moves Since

 
 
 

$PGEN Precigen exploded nearly 59% higher after securing full FDA approval for PAPZIMEOS (zopapogene imadenovec-drba), the first and only approved therapy for adults with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). This milestone is not just historic for the RRP community—it removes the uncertainty of a confirmatory trial, solidifying commercial prospects. With the biotech sector hungry for genuine breakthroughs, this approval gives PGEN a rare blend of scientific credibility and immediate market relevance. Trading volume spiked to 172M shares, dwarfing its 3M average, a clear signal that institutions and retail traders alike piled in on the news.

$RUN Sunrun charged ahead by nearly 33% after Wells Fargo almost doubled its price target, citing confidence in the company’s growth trajectory. This bullish call came on the heels of a blowout Q2 earnings report, where RUN shocked the market with a $1.07 per-share profit versus expectations for a loss. Revenue of $569.33M crushed estimates, powered by record storage growth and new subscriber momentum. The solar energy leader also unveiled a new home energy solution, further strengthening its competitive edge. With short interest still lingering, today’s surge could ignite a multi-session rally if momentum traders keep pressing.

$FOSL Fossil Group clocked a 31.9% jump, making it one of the most unexpected winners of the day. The rally came as textiles and sporting goods stocks showed relative strength, with Fossil leading the pack. While no major earnings catalyst dropped, traders appear to be betting on value rotation and potential retail sector resilience heading into back-to-school season. Given its low average daily volume, this kind of price and volume spike can attract short-term swing traders looking for volatility.

$DFLI Dragonfly Energy rose 16.5% after reporting a smaller-than-expected Q2 loss of $0.58 per share, beating consensus by $0.37. Revenue also topped estimates at $16.2M, thanks to stronger demand for its battery solutions. For a penny stock with high speculative interest, beating both top- and bottom-line estimates is enough to trigger a sizable bounce—especially in a market hungry for alternative energy plays with upside potential.

$SGML Sigma Lithium climbed 13.3% after delivering Q2 production of 68,368 tonnes of lithium concentrate, slightly beating its target and marking a 38% YoY increase. The company continues to hold costs below expectations, giving it an advantage in a volatile lithium market. With construction on its Advanced Plant 2 progressing and nameplate capacity expected to double, SGML is positioning itself as a key player in the EV supply chain. The market rewarded its operational consistency despite earnings falling short of some forecasts.
