What is this all about?

On June 10, 2021, Ocugen announced that it would "no longer pursue an emergency use authorization" for its COVID-19 vaccine candidate, Covaxin, and would instead go through the process of obtaining full approval. The company said that the decision was "based on a recommendation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration," which also "requested more information and data" for the approval. The news shocked the market, as the Company had previously indicated that it intended to apply for emergency use authorization. On this news, the Ocugen share price dropped to $6.69 from $9.31 at close the day before.
