#6 - Cellectis (NASDAQ:CLLS)
For even more risk-tolerant investors, Cellectis (NASDAQ:CLLS) is a biotech stock that is currently trading under $10. Like Editas Medicine, Cellectis is in the field of gene editing. However, whereas Editas uses the CRISPR/Cas9 platform, Cellectis uses a gene-editing technology called TALEN.
The company also specializes in oncology treatments and has six candidates in its pipeline including three wholly-controlled candidates. That being said, CLLS stock is down 68% in 2021 and it’s unclear at this time whether the stock has found a floor.
However, analysts remain very bullish on CLLS stock with a consensus price target of $23.25 which would be a gain of 170% from its current price. And the stock does appear to be gaining interest from institutional investors, which is usually a signal that the stock could be ready to rise.
