Precision System Science continued to rise, approaching year-to-date high on Ebola outbreak reports
Precision System Science Co., Ltd. <7707> extended its gains, approaching its year-to-date high. The BBC reported that Ebola infections have spread in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with at least 100 reported deaths. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared on May 17 that the outbreak constitutes a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. Furthermore, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued an order on May 18 to temporarily suspend entry for travelers from the country and other affected areas. As the market closely monitors the situation alongside the hantavirus outbreak on cruise ships, the company's automated DNA extraction equipment?which has a track record in Ebola testing?has fueled speculation over demand for testing products, drawing short-term speculative capital.
