In other words, more than eight OVAS calls have been bought to open for every put over the last two weeks.

Elsewhere on the Street, 100% of analysts tracking the security rate it a "strong buy." What's more, OVAS' consensus 12-month price target of $64 represents a 148.6% premium to the current price of $25.74-- as well as never-before-charted waters.
