Inventiva is burning cash at approximately 3,000% of revenue — an extreme rate — and its market capitalization of roughly $890 million falls below the $1 billion minimum threshold that defines the investable universe for this strategy, removing it from consideration. RSI at 18 and a falling-knife technical setup compound the risk, though the long-term moving average slope remains positive, suggesting the selloff may not yet have found a durable floor.
