TGTX: Q2 Earnings Miss Breaks Key Support After A Strong Rally
TG Therapeutics (TGTX) fell 11.26% on Aug 3, 2026, closing at $46.17 after reporting Q2 earnings that missed the consensus bottom-line estimate. The drop carried the stock through the $52 to $53 support zone that had held through late July, ending a three-week consolidation below the July peak near $59.30. The setup is now a conflict between an intact longer-term uptrend above the 200-day average and a freshly broken short-term structure.
Why This Setup Matters Now
TGTX entered the technical-analysis queue today as one of the largest day losers on Yahoo Finance market movers, down 11.26% to $46.17 on about 6.4 million shares. The decline followed the company's Q2 2026 report, which showed diluted EPS of $0.05 versus the consensus estimate, according to Seeking Alpha. Revenue still rose about 70% year over year to $240.3 million, and full-year revenue guidance was raised to about $950 million, as reported by Zacks via Yahoo Finance.
