Indivior (INDV) is up 90% since April and has consistently hit new highs, driven by optimism for Sublocade. INDV stock set its latest 52-week high in morning trading on Aug. 8. Technical indicators are overwhelmingly bullish. Indivior has a 100% “Buy” rating from Barchart. Despite the current momentum, INDV is volatile and speculative. I recommend strict risk management and stop-loss strategies for any potential investment.

Today’s Featured Stock

Valued at $3.03 billion, Indivior (INDV) is a specialty pharmaceutical company. It is engaged in discovering and developing medications and treatment for alcohol addiction, opioid overdose, cocaine intoxication, and co-occurring conditions, such as schizophrenia.

Its future seems to be based on analysts’ love of Sublocade, which is an extended-release injection of buprenorphine used for the treatment of moderate to severe opioid use disorder. Sublocade works by steadily releasing buprenorphine into the bloodstream, helping to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opioid dependence.

What I’m Watching

I found today’s Chart of the Day by using Barchart’s powerful screening functions to sort for stocks with the highest technical buy signals; superior current momentum in both strength and direction; and a Trend Seeker “buy” signal. I then used Barchart’s Flipcharts feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. INDV checks those boxes. Since the Trend Seeker signaled a buy on April 25, the stock has gained 92.7%.

Analyst and Investor Sentiment on Indivior

I don’t buy stocks because everyone else is buying, but I do realize that if major firms and investors are dumping a stock, it’s hard to make money swimming against the tide.

It looks like Wall Street analysts are bullish on INDV, and so is Morningstar.

The Wall Street analysts tracked by Barchart have issued 7 “Strong Buy” and 1 “Moderate Buy” opinion on the stock. Their price targets are between $20-$30 with a consensus of $25.83. Morningstar thinks the stock is undervalued by 23% with a fair value of $28.77. Only 958 investors monitor the stock on Seeking Alpha, which rates the stock a “Hold.”

The Bottom Line on Indivior

INDV currently has momentum and is hitting new highs. Analysts seem to think a turnaround may be in its future.

I caution that INDV is volatile and even speculative in the current environment, which means investors should use strict risk management and stop-loss strategies.
