TG Therapeutics (TGTX) stock drops 7% as JPMorgan healthcare conference nears — what investors watch next

TG Therapeutics (TGTX) stock drops 7% as JPMorgan healthcare conference nears — what investors watch next

New York, January 9, 2026, 15:59 (EST) — Regular session

  • TG Therapeutics shares fell about 7% in late U.S. trading, after giving up an early lift.
  • The company’s CEO is due to present at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on Jan. 13.
  • Traders are looking for fresh signposts on Briumvi demand and 2026 priorities.

TG Therapeutics (TGTX.O) shares fell about 7% on Friday, reversing an early rise and leaving the biotech near its session low. The stock was down 7% at $28.35 by 3:55 p.m. EST after opening at $30.69 and sliding as low as $28.215. It hit $30.83 earlier in the session.

The move comes with the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference set to kick off on Monday in San Francisco, a meeting that often pulls in fresh corporate updates and deal chatter in one tight week. The bank’s agenda shows the event runs Jan. 12–15 at the Westin St. Francis.

That matters for stocks like TG because small and mid-cap biotechs can reprice quickly on a slim bit of new detail — or on the lack of it. “We have seen deals get approved in the last year,” Jeremy Meilman, JPMorgan’s global co-head of healthcare investment banking, told Reuters. Reuters

TG said on Wednesday that Chairman and CEO Michael S. Weiss will present at the conference on Tuesday, Jan. 13, at 1:30 p.m. Pacific time, with a live webcast and replay available through the company’s investor site.

The company sells Briumvi, an infused treatment for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. Briumvi is an anti-CD20 antibody — a protein drug that targets B cells, part of the immune system — and TG also has earlier-stage programs including a BTK inhibitor, aimed at blocking an enzyme tied to immune signaling.

Friday’s slide pushed the shares back below $30 after they traded above that mark for much of the morning. Traders often treat the day’s low near $28 as the first line to watch; a close that sticks near there can change the mood fast.

But the conference can cut both ways. If management’s remarks point to slower uptake, tighter insurer coverage or heavier competition from bigger multiple sclerosis franchises such as Roche’s Ocrevus or Novartis’s Kesimpta, the stock could stay on the defensive.

MARKET CALENDAR

Key Events Today

The catalysts most likely to move markets.

#1

U.S. index futures reopen at 18:00 ET

This is the clearest scheduled U.S.-market price-discovery point today and can transmit weekend news into equity-index futures before Monday's cash session.

#2

New Zealand retail sales at 18:45 ET

The Q2 retail package can move NZD and regional risk sentiment. Spillover to U.S. assets is usually secondary unless the result is unusually large.

#3

No scheduled domestic U.S. data or corporate reports

The absence of U.S. releases, earnings, IPO pricings and split events leaves fewer scheduled catalysts, increasing the relative importance of weekend headlines and positioning at the futures reopen.
