Why Adaptimmune Therapeutics Stock Is Popping Today

Why Adaptimmune Therapeutics Stock Is Popping Today

Shares of the British cell therapy company Adaptimmune Therapeutics (NASDAQ: ADAP) are having one of their best days in several months today. To put this move into the proper context, the bellwether biotech indices -- the iShares Biotechnology ETF and the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF -- are both essentially flat for the day at the time of this writing. Adaptimmune's shares appear to be perking up in response to the buyout of fellow soft tissue cancer specialist Epizyme (NASDAQ: EPZM) earlier today.
