GOOD WEEK

ConocoPhillips Company (COP +3.10%)  is an American multinational corporation engaged in hydrocarbon exploration and production.  This gain is likely due to a number of factors, including strong oil and gas prices, a favorable macro environment, and the company's strong financial performance. COP is a well-established company with a strong track record of growth and dividend payments. The company is also well-positioned to benefit from the continued growth of the global energy industry.

MoonLake Immunotherapeutics (MLTX +3.96%) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel treatments for inflammatory diseases. The company's stock price has surged this week on positive results from a mid-stage clinical trial for its drug sonelokimab, which is being developed to treat hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic skin condition.

BAD WEEK

WHAT ELSE HAPPENED
