Three biotechs played right into that strategy on Tuesday.

The first was Jasper Therapeutics, which kicked things off Tuesday afternoon by announcing it plans on selling shares via a public offering. Jasper elaborated Wednesday morning, disclosing it would sell 60 million shares of stock at $1.50 each, for around $90 million. The stock $JSPR ticked up more than 10% after the opening bell.
