The Truth About VDRM Stock
So what is the bottom line about ViaDerma and VDRM? And why are shares skyrocketing?
The move is probably because of the company forecast for 2021. In the report, ViaDerma said 2020 was a great year. It released a new pain product, received more financing and had big clients test its money-making Vitastem.
Looking forward into 2021 then, that could mean it’s possible for ViaDerma to take advantage of its 2020 successes and etch out even more profits. But, as with any penny stock, and especially those in the pharma industry, tread lightly. As quickly as they go up, those gains could vanish.
