It's said to be thinner, longer-lasting on battery, and cheaper to produce, with the ability to work worldwide without relying on cell towers. Former Bloomberg reporter and SAC Capital trader Josh Baylin says the evidence is mounting. He notes the FCC recently gave Musk a green light connected to his mobile plans, adding fuel to speculation. Baylin previously called the smartphone boom in 2004 and predicted Apple would sell a billion phones when others expected a fraction of that. | Stansberry Research (Ad)NuCana plc Sponsored ADRJune 16, 2026 | edition.cnn.comNuCana Appoints Ian Webster as Chief Financial OfficerJune 1, 2026 | globenewswire.comNuCana Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Provides Business UpdateMay 14, 2026 | globenewswire.comNuCana Posts 2025 Results, Highlights NUC-7738 Progress and Cash Runway Into 2029March 22, 2026 | theglobeandmail.comNuCana Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2025 Financial Results and Provides Business UpdateMarch 19, 2026 | globenewswire.comSee More Headlines NCNA Stock Analysis - Frequently Asked Questions How have NCNA shares performed this year?
