Moderna Inc is an American biotechnology company. It was founded in 2010 and is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Moderna is known for its mRNA vaccines development. This technology enables people develop immune responses to viruses. The company is best known for its vaccine against COVID-19. During the first wave of the pandemic, the EU bought 80 million doses of Moderna vaccine prompting many investors to buy the stock of the company.
Moderna Inc stock is in a long-term bullish trend with small periods of correction. It is worth remembering, however, that Moderna has only one commercial product, the COVID-19 vaccine. For a long time, the company existed only thanks to venture funding and grants. Competition in the biotechnology industry is very high, and it is difficult to assess the sales market. Moderna has to compete with such giants as Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Sanofi, which have more production capacity and opportunities to attract investors. In many ways, the company's stock price reflects the effectiveness of Moderna products and their popularity among consumers.
The MRNA rate is also influenced by the media coverage of Moderna. Positive coverage helps the company to win new markets. Due to that, sales increase and investor sentiment improves. As a result, the company's stock rises in value.

Currently, a number of vaccines are being developed in China and Russia, as well as by other non-Western companies. In this regard, Moderna and BioNTech/Pfizer's shares in the global vaccine market and their ability to charge a high price will continue to decline.
