Neutral/Negative Catalysts
- Technical/momentum headwind: news flags ASPI as having the lowest momentum rating, consistent with the bearish moving averages and MACD.
- Legal overhang: Halper Sadeh investigation into directors for potential fiduciary duty breaches can pressure sentiment until resolved (even if it sometimes leads to governance changes).
- Very high volatility regime (IV ~150%+) increases the chance of sharp drawdowns if any catalyst disappoints.
- No supportive “smart money” confirmation: hedge funds and insiders show neutral recent activity trends; no recent Congress trading data available.
