There is a Minnesota Pharmaceuticals company that sent a product to be evaluated by the FDA. There are 5 outcomes; that it is approved, that it receives contingent approval, that it is sent back for more analysis of the data, that it is sent back to gather more data and do more analysis, or that it is rejected
The company is part of the S&P 1500. Thus S&P 1500 will move some based on these outcomes.
