PTC Therapeutics Inc's stock fell by 5.73%, crossing down the 20-day SMA, reflecting broader market trends.
Despite the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 showing slight gains, PTC's performance was negatively impacted by recent insider stock sales and recruitment incentives.
The company's focus on talent acquisition and stock option grants may indicate a strategic shift, but the current market reaction suggests caution among investors.
