Viking Therapeutics: High Risk, High Reward

from The Daily News Now! Business

Viking Therapeutics, VKTX, presents a high-risk, high-reward opportunity amid market volatility. Despite a 15% drop this year, Wall Streets average price target suggests a potential 207% jump in the next twelve months. The companys flagship drug, VK2735, is in phase three trials for obesity, a prevalent issue with limited treatment options. Early phase two results showed promising weight loss, and additional trials are underway. While success could lead to significant gains, failure may result in a stock drop.
