[Updated on July 9, 2021] Stock Update for CRSP CRISPR Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CRSP), a biotechnology gene editing firm focusing on creating gene-based treatments for human ailments, hit an all-time high of $210 in January of this year before falling over 32% to its current level of around $142. The shares of CRSP has dropped 10% in the last five days. Will the company’s stock continue to fall in the next weeks, or will it begin to recover?
According to the Trefis Machine Learning Engine, which uses ten years of historical data to identify trends in a company’s stock price, CRISPR stock returns average just under 7% in the next one-month (twenty-one trading days) period after a 10% decrease the preceding week (five trading days).
But how do these figures vary if you want to own CRISPR stock for a shorter or longer period of time? On the Trefis Machine Learning Engine, you can test the response and many other combinations to see if CRISPR stock will rise following a decline. You can assess the likelihood of healing across time intervals of a quarter, a month, or even a single day!

IF THE CRSP STOCK MOVED -5 PERCENT IN FIVE DAYS, THEN IN THE NEXT TWENTY-ONE DAYS, THEN IN THE NEXT TWENTY-ONE DAYS CRSP stock has moved an average of 6.4 percent over the last year, with a 60% chance of a positive return.
Making Sense of CRISPR Therapeutics Stock Movements: Some Fun Scenarios, FAQs, and Making Sense of CRISPR Therapeutics Stock Movements:
Question 1: Is CRISPR Therapeutics stock’s average return higher following a drop?
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR YOU
Answer: Consider the following two scenarios: Case 1: CRISPR Therapeutics’ stock drops by 5% or more in a week.
Case 2: CRISPR Therapeutics’ stock increases by at least 5% in a week.
Is the average return on CRISPR Therapeutics stock higher after Case 1 or Case 2 in the following month?
After Case 2, CRSP stock performs better, with an average return of 6.6 percent over the next month (twenty-one trading days) versus 6.9 percent in Case 1 (where the stock has just experienced a 5 percent loss over the previous week).
In comparison, the S&P 500 has an average return of 3.1 percent in Case 1 and barely 0.5 percent in Case 2 over the next twenty-one trading days, according to our dashboard, which shows the average return for the S&P 500 after a fall or rise.
Use the Trefis machine learning engine to analyze how CRISPR Therapeutics stock is expected to react following any specific gain or loss over time.
Question 2: Does it pay to be patient?
Answer: If you buy and retain CRISPR Therapeutics stock, you may expect near-term swings to fade away with time, and a long-term favorable trend to favor you – at least if the company is otherwise healthy.
Overall, facts and Trefis’ machine learning engine estimates show that patience pays off in most stocks!
The following table shows the returns for CRSP stock over the next N days after a -5 percent change over the previous five trading days, as well as the returns for the S&P500:

You may use the engine to see how CRISPR Therapeutics’ table looks following a higher loss in the previous week, month, or quarter.
Question three: What about the average return if you wait a time following a rise?
Answer: As mentioned in the preceding question, the average return after a rise is lower than after a decrease. Surprisingly, if a company has increased in the recent few days, you should avoid short-term bets for most stocks – although CRSP stock looks to be an exception to this general rule.
By adjusting the variables in the charts above, you can test the trend for CRISPR Therapeutics stock for yourself.
[Updated on June 14, 2021] The price of CRSP has risen.
CRISPR Therapeutics, a biotechnology gene editing firm focusing on developing gene-based therapies for human disorders, has witnessed a healthy 26% increase in the previous twenty-one trading sessions, and we expect the stock will continue to rise in the short term. CTX001, a potential one-time medication being developed by Vertex Pharmaceuticals and CRISPR for patients with transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia and severe sickle cell disease, received positive results from clinical trials last week, according to CRSIPR. Patients with beta thalassemia usually require regular blood transfusions, but those with sickle cell disease suffer from vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs). None of the TDT patients required transfusions after being treated with CTX001, and all of the SCD patients were VOC-free. This is a significant milestone for CRISPR, which said last month that Vertex would pay it $900 million in exchange for an additional 10% of the proceeds from CTX001 sales. CTX001 will be a blockbuster medicine if it is approved.
Will CRSP stock continue to grow after a 26 percent gain in twenty-one trading days, or will it begin to fall? According to past performance, there is a 60% chance that CRSP stock will gain in the next month. In the last five years, 113 of the 189 times CRISPR stock has seen a twenty-one day spike of 26 percent or more have resulted in CRSP stock advancing over the following one month period (twenty-one trading days). This historical pattern predicts a gain of 113 out of 189, or almost 60%, in CRSP stock during the next month. CRSP stock is still down 20% year-to-date, despite a 26 percent gain in the previous month or so. We covered a few months ago how investors may be able to acquire better entry levels into CRSP stock when it climbed 3x from $62 in June 2020 to $210 in January 2021. The stock of CRSP is presently down 40% from its January highs, but we predict it will rise in the near future. For more information, see our CRISPR Stock Chances of Rise study.

[As of 3/26/2021] Update on the CRSP
We discussed why investors might want to wait for better entry levels into the CRSP stock last month. Since then, the stock has lost more than 28% of its value. There hasn’t been any huge news to prompt investors to fear. However, profit booking at higher levels is anticipated as a result of the massive 5x run from $34 in March 2020 to $160 last month. While the stock is still up 3x from its March 2020 lows, the current levels appear to be attractive for long-term investors to enter.
In terms of the most recent decrease, the 14 percent reduction in CRSP stock over the last 10 days compares to a 1% drop in the broader S&P 500 index. Looking ahead, we predict there is a 59 percent likelihood of an increase in CRSP stock over the next month, based on our machine learning research of stock price movements over the last few years (twenty-one trading days). CRISPR Therapeutics stock has seen a 5-day loss of 7.3 percent or more 112 times in the last four years, with 112 of these resulting in CRSP stock increasing over the following one month period (21 trading days). This historical pattern predicts a rise in CRSP stock of 112 out of 197, or roughly 59 percent, during the next month. For more information, see our CRISPR Stock Chances of Rise study.
[As of 2/17/2021] After Q4, should you buy or sell CRISPR stock?
We discussed why the CRSP stock gain could continue given the favorable findings surrounding CTX001, an experimental gene treatment for persons with sickle cell disease and transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia, a few months ago. The price of CRSP shares has risen from roughly $107 in mid-November 2020 to $161 now. Furthermore, the stock has risen 5x from its low point of $34 in late March 2020, when markets reached a bottom following the Covid-19 spread. Is it possible for the rally to continue now? No, we don’t believe so. Despite the fact that the CRSP stock has momentum, considering the stock’s tremendous 5x run in less than a year, investors may wish to wait for better entry levels.
Revenues of $0.4 million in the fourth quarter were down 99.5 percent year over year, below the consensus by $2.2 million. Note that 2019 revenues were greater due to Vertex Pharmaceuticals’ cooperation revenues related to CTX001 co-development. The company’s GAAP EPS of $(1.50) missed forecasts by $0.23 in the fourth quarter. CRISPR appears to be exposed to negative risk in the immediate term, with the results being below consensus projections and the company being on a big rise.
