    JUSTIFIEDCONFIDENCE5/5

    SNDX fell 41.1% to $10.00, including a 39.61% drop in the last five minutes. The Phase 2 axatilimab trial missed its primary endpoint and IPF development was halted, a major clinical setback that supports the sharp decline.

    WHYA 41% one-day plunge and near-40% late-session collapse are large but proportionate to a failed Phase 2 endpoint and termination of the IPF program.

SNDX opened at $16.88, briefly reached $16.95, and then declined to a $16.37 low before ending the regular session at $16.54, down 2.6% from the previous close. There were no halts, but TapeRank later recorded a sharp move to $12.78 at 16:02 ET; its read tied the decline to Syndax’s announcement that the Phase 2 axatilimab trial in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis missed its primary endpoint and that IPF development was halted, calling the move justified with 5/5 confidence.
