Pills Over Hair Transplants

The idea
I believe an oral hair-loss pill that actually works pulls men away from hair transplant surgery, so I'm positioned on the pill side rather than the scalpel side. The core holding is the company developing an extended-release oral minoxidil now through late-stage trials, paired with telehealth platforms that already prescribe hair-loss treatments online and stand to gain as pills replace procedures. I'm keeping a large cash cushion since this rests on one drug and one regulatory decision, and I'd rethink the whole thing if that trial data or filing disappoints.
