Tyme technology Inc. (TYME:US, NASDAQ:TYME)
The medical research firm’s stock was trading at US$ 1.7 apiece at the time of writing this. It has gained over 832 per cent in the last nine months.

At the previous close, the stock was 11 per cent down year-to-date (YTD). It declined more than 12 per cent in the past one year. The current bullish movement may improve its price in the upcoming trading sessions.
Earlier, the stock’s 10-day volume was 893,180 shares, down against the 50-day volume of 2.74 million shares.
The US-based clinical-stage firm reported nearly US$ 13.5 million in cash liquidity in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, down against that of US$ 19.4 million at end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021. This decline came on the back of rising expenses in the research activities.
The biotech company’s operational cash burn rate was nearly US$ 6 million in Q3 FY21, as compared to US$ 6.6 million in Q2 FY21 and US$ 4.5 million in Q2 FY20.
