I’m looking into Compass Pathways (NASDAQ: CMPS), a biotech company focused on developing psilocybin-based therapies for treatment-resistant depression (TRD). They're currently in Phase 3 clinical trials for their lead product, COMP360. Here’s a quick rundown:
- Market Potential: TRD affects about 84 million people globally. If COMP360 gets approved and captures even a small market share, the revenue potential could be massive.
- Current Valuation: The stock is trading around $7. Analysts suggest that with a successful Phase 3, the stock could 5x, given the novelty and demand for effective TRD treatments.
- Risks: This is definitely a speculative bet. If the trials fail, the stock could tank. But with a 50% estimated success rate, the risk/reward seems intriguing.
What are your thoughts? Is this worth the risk, or too much uncertainty? Curious to hear the community’s take on whether CMPS is a hidden gem or a potential trap.
