Hey Folks, Jeff Bishop here.
After a rocky start to the Israel-Iran ceasefire, and some particularly funny call-outs from President Trump, the markets seem to think the worst may be over.
The S&P 500 gained 1.1% yesterday, approaching its all-time high, and the Nasdaq climbed 1.4%.
Today, I’m returning to a “tactical trade” idea that I brought to your attention twice last month.
You probably remember it, but here’s how we looked by the close of the first day I alerted it:
And that was on a down day for the markets!
The second day, I alerted it saw a 7% intraday gain.
The stock has cooled off a bit from there and is at a level I think is worth considering again.
💥Go ahead and pull up the chart for NanoViricides, Inc. (NNVC).
Even after its slight pullback, the stock is up 40% since April 8. That’s nearly double the S&P 500’s 22% recovery.
The company is pioneering nanotech-based drugs targeting some very prominent viruses.
As you’ll see below, it’s on the cusp of a Phase II clinical trial in the Democratic Republic of Congo for Mpox, and it says right now, “There is no drug available for the treatment of MPox disease.”
If you check the Google News page for that nasty virus, you’ll see tons of headlines from the past two weeks alone, including this one from the New York Times:
I’m watching NNVC today to see if we get another big leg up.
On the fundamentals side, there are great reasons to keep NNVC in mind…
The company is developing what it hopes will be the “holy grail” of antiviral therapeutics — a single drug to treat all of the “tripledemic” viruses (i.e., COVID-19, RSV, flu) as well as smallpox/mpox.
As you know, viruses are notoriously difficult to target. Antibodies and vaccines are the usual weapons of choice, but as NNVC explains, they “are easily overcome by viruses by mutating in the field.”
NNVC’s solution is what it calls “nanoviricide® technology.”
It says that this “is the only technology in the world, to the best of our knowledge, that is capable of both (a) attacking extracellular virus, thereby breaking the reinfection cycle, and simultaneously (b) disrupting intracellular production of the virus, thereby enabling complete control of a virus infection.”
Nanoviricides are combinations of ligands and special polymers that are designed to appear to viruses like the host cells to which they typically bind.
The idea is that viruses will be tricked into binding with the nanoviricides, which then destroy them:
And since binding sites for a given virus don’t change, the company believes its drugs “will be broad-spectrum, i.e. effective against most if not all strains, types, or subtypes, of a given virus.”
NNVC’s lead candidate — its hoped-for “holy grail” — is NV-387, a “revolutionary, broad-spectrum antiviral.”
NV-387 has already proven effective in animal studies against RSV, influenza, COVID, and smallpox/Mpox.
In fact, the company says it has proven “substantially superior” to Tamiflu and Xofluza in a lethal Influenza A animal trial, and to Remdesivir in a Covid animal model.
In June 2024, NNVC said that NV-387 was “anticipated to be a strong drug candidate that would remain effective against HPAI H5N1 [bird flu] even as significant mutations occur.”
Then in October, NNVC noted that NV-387 “possibly completely cured the lethal RSV infection in mice, based on indefinite survival of the animals with no lung pathology.”
It added that “There is currently no treatment for RSV infection” and that “Pediatric RSV treatment itself is expected to be a multi-billion-dollar market in the USA alone.” [emphasis added]
NNVC believes NV-387 “is poised to revolutionize treatment of viral infections [just like] penicillin revolutionized treatment of bacterial infections.”
And since the binding site on NV-387 mimics one that 90% of human pathogenic viruses use, the company believes it will have a very broad application.
NV-387 has already been through a Phase I human clinical trial with no adverse events.
The company is exploring “design of an innovative and ambitious, adaptive Phase II clinical trial wherein the effectiveness of the single drug NV-387 can be assessed for the treatment of a number of naturally occurring virus infections in humans in a single clinical trial.”
On May 16, the company gave investors a big update. The Democratic Republic of Congo has cleared NNVC “to file a Phase II Clinical Trial Application for the Use of Oral NV-387 for the Treatment of MPox Disease Caused by the hMPXV virus.”
It pointed out that “There is no drug available for the treatment of MPox disease” and that the MPox Clade 1a/1b viruses “have a substantially greater fatality rate than COVID, at 3-4%, and Clade 1b has been disproportionately affecting pediatric populations.”
Because of the potential biosecurity implications, an “MPox/Smallpox drug represents a billion-dollar market globally.”
The company has also begun a program to evaluate NV-387 in a humanized animal model of Measles lethal infection because it “strongly expect[s] that NV-387 would be effective against Measles.”
The press release is worth reading in full for a good sense of where the company stands.
In addition to its “holy grail,” NNVC is advancing NV-HHV-1, a nanoviricide drug designed to treat all herpes viruses.
As a skin cream, NV-HHV-1 is intended for use on shingles/chickenpox skin rashes, HSV-1 cold sores, as well as HSV-2 genital ulcers. An oral formulation is also in development for systemic treatment of herpes infections.
NNVC reports that NV-HHV-1 is now ready for Phase I clinical trials.

And of course, always approach your trading in a responsible manner, remembering that trading is very risky. Nothing is ever guaranteed, so never trade with more than you can afford to lose.
Please read the full disclaimer at the bottom of this email as well so you are aware of additional risks and considerations. Always have a well-thought-out game plan that takes your personal risk tolerance into consideration.
Bottom Line: NNVC has strong wind at its back — it’s up 40% since April 8, nearly doubling the S&P 500’s already impressive recovery.
With fresh Mpox headlines appearing daily, and NV-387 on the cusp of a Phase II trial for that, I’m watching to see if NNVC makes another big leg up today.
💥Keep NNVC at the top of your radar today as things unfold, and I’ll be sure to be in touch if there are any important updates.
To Your Success,
Jeff Bishop

Just so you know, what you’re reading is curated content for which we have received a monetary fee (detailed below) to create and distribute. Let’s be clear that investing can be quite the roller coaster as stock prices can have wild swings up and down, so consider those crucial risks before you ever consider trading anything we discuss. Make sure you check out our full disclosure down below for the details on how we were paid, the risks, and why these results aren’t what you’d call “typical.”
Just a quick heads up about this ad you’re reading—as we’ve said, even though we like the company referenced above, and all the facts we discussed above are true to the best of our knowledge, we are running a business here. To distribute this information and help offset the costs of maintaining our large digital audience, in advance of writing the content above, we received fifteen thousand dollars from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a one day marketing program starting on July 23, 2025. Additionally, we received fifteen thousand dollars from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a one day marketing program starting on June 25, 2025. Before this, we received forty thousand dollars from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a two day marketing program starting on May 23, 2025, and we also received fifteen thousand dollars from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a one day marketing program on October 31, 2024. Prior to that, we received twenty two thousand five hundred dollars from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a one day marketing program on October 2, 2024. Prior to this, we received fifteen thousand dollars from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a one day marketing program on June 26, 2024. Before that, we also received seventeen thousand dollars (cash) from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a one day marketing program on May 23, 2024. We also previously received seventeen thousand dollars (cash) from Interactive Offers for advertising NanoViricides, Inc for a one day marketing program on May 8, 2024. It might seem obvious, but while our client claims not to own any shares in NanoViricides, Inc, whoever ultimately paid them most likely owns shares. You should assume they are looking to sell some or all of them at any time after we send out this information, which might negatively affect the stock price. We may also buy or sell shares in the company at some point in the future, although neither Sherwood Ventures nor its owners own any shares of the company at this time. Also, keep in mind that due to the sheer size of our audience, if even a small percentage of people decide they want to buy this stock, it could potentially boost interest enough to hike up those share prices and cause a temporary spike, and the opposite is possible as the marketing campaign ends, though that is not always the case.
Now, diving right into NanoViricides, Inc might sound exciting. But remember, it’s like venturing into the wilderness—be aware that there’s exceptional risk involved in trading. This isn’t small potatoes we’re talking about; you could lose every dime you put in, so always carefully think about what you’re doing. That’s why they call this trading, after all. We’re shining a light on the good stuff about the company here, but it’s up to you to do your homework, make your own calls, and determine a plan for your own trading, hopefully with the help of your professional investment advisor.
Oh, that brings us to another crucial point—we’re not here to tell you (or even recommend) what you should do with your hard-earned money. We’re simply sharing our non-expert thoughts by highlighting some companies who are paying us and we like that could use some help telling their story to more people. We’re obviously biased in our writing. We’re not here to dig into anything that may be negative about the company; this is advertising, after all! Also, keep in mind that if we make some predictions about the future, these are technically known as “forward-L00king statements” under the securities acts, so take those with a grain of salt. As with all forecasts, they’re not set in stone, often wrong, and we certainly can’t know where the Company’s earnings, business, or share price will be tomorrow or a year from now.
