@kagrawala @Karpoligiano Came here by way of the $ABBV ticker - but it just so happens I own $VRTX as well for many of the reasons this article mentioned. ARK has also been buying $VTRX steadily for $ARKG, so there’s that as well...

Manchin opposes key structural changes to the US government floated by his more liberal colleagues that would upend the bipartisan policymaking process in Washington He has strongly opposed liberal policy proposals such as Medicare for All and the Green New Deal He also opposes liberal proposals Such as: -ending the Senate’s filibuster rule for legislation, which effectively requires 60 or more senators to support a bill for it to pass and -expanding the Supreme Court to dilute its current 6-3 conservative majority.
