Derek Archila has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that suggest potential growth and value in Monte Rosa Therapeutics’ stock. The company’s lead drug candidate, MRT-2359, is on track with its Phase 1 updates, which are expected in the second half of 2024, and this progress could be a significant upside catalyst for the stock.
