4 Stocks To Watch Today: APTX, CRON, PRQR, VRA

Aptinyx Inc (NASDAQ:APTX), one of our old swings, which I had given you in July when it came down at 21, slowly moved up and ran on Wednesday, jumping 3.68, or 14%, to 29.29, on 212,736 shares traded. Look for it to head up to the mid 30’s.

Cronos Group Inc (NASDAQ:CRON) had a good day on Wednesday in spite of marijuana stocks having profit taking, popping 1.30, or 12%, to 12.45, on 83 million shares. That’s the biggest volume this stock has ever had. It might be a blow out, and it looks like it is, but I think it might get some momentum to carry low volume before it actually peaks out. If you see the stock get to 14-15, then maybe it will roll over.

ProQR Therapeutics NV (NASDAQ:PRQR) with a special day on Wednesday, exploded 9.60, or 121%, to 17.55, on 5.9 million shares. Late in the day this stock ramped up after the close and did a secondary. I think it’s one of those secondary’s that’s going to be absorbed very well and is going to ramp in the 23-25 zone.

Vera Bradley Inc (NASDAQ:VRA) where the pop is well over and out, and through a resistance zone just like VCEL did. On Wednesday it gained 2.11, or 15%, to 16.40, on 2.6 million shares. The target is eventually going to be up at 20-21.

Stocks on the short side included Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD), Aptinyx Inc. (APTX), BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (BCRX), CareDx, Inc (CDNA), Cardiome Pharma Corp. (CORV), Cronos Group Inc. (CRON), The Habit Restaurants, Inc. (HABT), HTG Molecular Diagnostics, Inc. (HTGM), ProQR Therapeutics NV (NASDAQ:PRQR), Recro Pharm (NASDAQ:REPH)), Stitch Fix, Inc. (SFIX), TravelCenters of America LLC (TA), Tilray, Inc. (TLRY), Vericel Corporation (VCEL), and Vera Bradley, Inc. (VRA).
