In reviewing the opportunity in Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) stock, I need to start with an apology. A few years ago, I harshly judged it for its delay in reaching profitability.

The coronavirus pandemic disrupted many businesses and was a boon to others. One sector that’s been riding high is the pharmaceutical industry. That’s especially true for companies that have brought a Covid-19 vaccine to market. Vaccine developer Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) is a perfect example. NVAX stock rose from relative obscurity with a share price of just
