Okay so like apparently an executive order *tried* to shake things up in the drug price world but the pharma companies were all 'We are never ever ever... going to let this affect our stocks *too* much.' Merck Pfizer the whole squad they bounced back like it was 2014. But CVS Health? They're feeling like they're in the 'exile' era since this order wants everyone buying directly from manufacturers. It's like they're saying 'Look What You Made Me Do,' Mr. President but in a boardroom. Can't we all just get along and listen to some 'ME!'?

Okay this is where things get... interesting. KindlyMD a healthcare company is merging with Nakamoto a crypto investment firm.
