Why This Small Biotech Stock Could Be Primed for a Breakout
Formerly known as FSD Pharma, Quantum BioPharma has undergone a transformation that’s as bold as its ambitions, setting the stage for a new era of growth and prosperity.
Quantum BioPharma (NASDAQ: QNTM) (CSE: QNTM) (FRA: 0K91) is rapidly positioning itself as a transformative player in the biotech and consumer health sectors. With groundbreaking advancements in pharmaceutical research and innovative consumer products, the company is carving a unique path toward success, making it a stock to watch closely.
Previously known as FSD Pharma, Quantum BioPharma has rebranded with a fresh vision and a diversified portfolio. From pioneering treatments for multiple sclerosis (MS) to launching innovative health supplements like unbuzzd™, the company is tapping into growing markets with immense potential.
Pioneering Medical Innovation
At the forefront of Quantum’s pharmaceutical division is Lucid-MS, a first-in-class therapeutic aimed at protecting the myelin sheath in patients with MS. This innovative approach offers hope for a disease that affects millions worldwide.
The company recently began Phase 1 clinical trials for Lucid-MS, a milestone that reflects its commitment to improving lives through scientific innovation.
“This brings us one step closer to the human phase-2 efficacy trials with Lucid-21-302 and is an important one. We strongly believe it will prove to be a potentially promising therapeutic when it advances into phase-2 efficacy clinical trials for the treatment of degenerative condition in multiple sclerosis,” stated Quantum BioPharma board member Dr. Lakshmi Kotra PhD.
This breakthrough treatment is poised to address a significant unmet medical need, potentially transforming the standard of care for MS patients.
The Buzz Around unbuzzd™
In addition to its pharmaceutical division, Quantum BioPharma has gained attention for unbuzzd™, a revolutionary product designed to help metabolize alcohol more quickly. Backed by scientific research, unbuzzd™ addresses a real-world problem and offers a unique value proposition for health-conscious consumers.
The product has recently expanded its reach with grab-and-go stick packs available on Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), aligning with growing trends in functional health and convenience. This innovative offering places Quantum BioPharma alongside major players in the health and wellness space, such as Celsius Holdings (NASDAQ: CELH), Monster Beverage (NASDAQ: MNST), and Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO).
These companies have successfully tapped into consumer demand for functional products, and Quantum’s unbuzzd™ is well-positioned to follow suit. Industry analysts have drawn comparisons to Celsius and Monster, which leveraged innovative formulations to dominate new beverage categories.
Celsius Holdings has been one of the most successful stocks in the entire market over the past decade. Rising from $0.10 in 2014 to its recent 52-week high of $99.62, Celsius stock has generated a whopping 10-year ROI of 100,000%. Early investors in Celsius could have seen a $10,000 investment turn into $10 million.
If past performance is any indication, the Celsius case study bodes well for companies bringing new and innovative products to market, such as Quantum BioPharma with unbuzzd™, which has the potential to disrupt the alcohol metabolism market.
In addition, the driving force behind unbuzzd™ features the same team from Celsius, including the ex-CEO Gerry David and ex-director, marketing guru and Shark Tank Shark Kevin Harrington. The pair were instrumental in Celsius’ tremendous success and will look to implement the same $20 billion playbook with unbuzzd™.
Kevin Harrington: Shark Tank Shark, Marketing Guru and Advisor
Kevin Harrington, the inventor of the infomercial and a Shark on Shark Tank, has launched over 1,000 products globally, generating over $6 billion in sales. His marketing and product development expertise will be instrumental in positioning unbuzzd™ for success.
Gerry David: Former CEO of Celsius and Advisor
Gerry David, best known for his transformative leadership at Celsius Holdings, joined Quantum BioPharma’s advisory board in March. During his tenure at Celsius, David turned the company into a global powerhouse, increasing its market cap 35-fold and delivering exceptional value for shareholders.

A Bold Stand for Fairness
Quantum BioPharma has also made headlines with its $700 million lawsuit against several Canadian banks, including CIBC World Markets and RBC Dominion Securities, alleging market manipulation and spoofing. While lawsuits of this scale are uncommon, Quantum’s proactive approach demonstrates its commitment to protecting shareholder value and fostering transparency in the financial markets.
According to Tony Sio, the Head of Regulatory Strategy and Innovation at NASDAQ’s Anti-Financial Crime (AFC) division:
“Spoofing covers a broad set of market manipulation techniques that involve entering non-genuine orders (spoof orders) to create a misleading impression of the supply and demand of that asset. Usually, the goal is to attract orders into the market at the false price level to be profited from by the manipulator. In its modern form, it is often associated with layering and algorithmic trading (also known as “algos”), where algorithmic trading tools are used to build the complex layers of false orders and, in nano-seconds, adjust them so they don’t trade. However, algos are more likely to be manipulated than be the manipulator. As trading becomes increasingly automated in all asset classes, manipulators use spoofing techniques to create the market conditions that attract the automated algorithms. As a classic manipulation technique, spoofing has found a new form in our modern trading world.”
In a complaint filed in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, Quantum BioPharma alleges that CIBC and RBC violated several sections of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by engaging in a market manipulation scheme that ran from January 2020 to August 2024 that used spoofing techniques to manipulate the share price of the company’s stock. Quantum is seeking damages of USD $700 million from the banks.
Quantum BioPharma is being represented on a contingency basis by the law firms Christian Attar and Freedman Normand Friedland LLP, which means the lawyers don’t get paid unless they win the case.
James Wes Christian of the Christian Attar Group commented on the case against the banks, stating:
“In the 21 years our team has been prosecuting market manipulation cases against Wall Street, I believe this could be one of the top 5 biggest spoofing/market manipulation cases we have handled. After working with our consulting and investigative experts, I believe the damage model could be in excess of $700 Million dollars.”
This bold action underscores Quantum’s determination to stand up for fair market practices, which could enhance investor confidence and support long-term growth. For shareholders, the lawsuit represents the company’s unwavering dedication to ensuring that its stock trades fairly and accurately reflects its true value.
“We believe that the Company and its shareholders have suffered immensely from Defendants’ trading practices, including those described in the complaint. We will use all means available to us to get justice for our shareholders,” added Quantum CEO and founder Zeeshan Saeed.
