In the realm of bullish stocks, Candel Therapeutics (CADL) saw a significant surge of 68.11%. The pharmaceutical company's stock skyrocketed over 140% following the successful achievement of primary objectives in the Phase 3 clinical trials of its prostate cancer treatment. This positive clinical outcome has fostered strong investor confidence, driving a substantial increase in the company's stock value.

Stitch Fix (SFIX) rose by 44.35%, marking a continuous upward trend for two consecutive days with a total increase of 44.98% during this period. This surge was bolstered by an uplift in Stitch Fix's target stock price from $5.00 to $6.00, indicating heightened investor optimism as per an unnamed financial source.

EV charging technology company XCH experienced a robust growth of 38.79%. According to industry commentary, the investment return from integrated solar, storage, and charging systems is exceptionally favorable, representing a clear development trend, thus boosting the company's stock performance.

Patterson Companies (PDCO) climbed 35.87%, maintaining a six-day ascendancy with a total increase of 45.30% over this stretch. Patterson's optimistic earnings release contributed to its growth, aligning with a rally among other large-cap stocks.

Frequency Electronics (FEIM) appreciated by 30.57%. The uptrend in its stock value was driven by a significant rise in both second-quarter profit and operating income, underscoring a strong fiscal performance.

Turning to bearish stocks, ADC Therapeutics (ADCT) declined sharply by 36.21%. The company announced that its LOTIS-7 clinical trial did not observe dose-limiting toxicities or higher-grade CRS/ICANS, overshadowing its clinical outcomes and leading to a drop in stock value.

AnaptysBio (ANAB) fell 32.83% after its treatment failed to meet the primary endpoint in pivotal clinical trials. This shortfall has dampened market confidence in the company's future potential.

ImmunityBio (IBRX) slumped by 32.11%, recording a three-day consecutive decline with a total decrease of 36.49%. The stock's depreciation followed the company's announcement of a planned public offering, which adversely affected investor sentiment.

Lightwave Logic (LWLG) decreased by 25.85%, continuing a three-day downward trajectory that led to a cumulative decline of 30.07%. The resignation of Michael Lebby as Chairman and CEO on December 10 preceded this downturn.

Dave & Buster's Entertainment (PLAY) dropped 20.08%. This decline was influenced by an investigation initiated by BFA Legal following the resignation of its CEO, urging affected investors to contact legal services as they face potential losses.
