How it trades on rate days

How CERT has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.79 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Certara Inc moved 0.79% on average · correlation 0.13 · higher than 70% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.34 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −1.07% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days +2.89% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — Certara Inc

CERT in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Certara builds software and services used to simulate how drugs behave in the body before and during clinical trials, a field it calls biosimulation. Its Simcyp platform models pharmacokinetics, the way a drug moves through the body, while Phoenix and Pirana support the statistical modelling regulators expect in a submission. It also sells Chemaxon chemistry software for compound design and Pinnacle 21 tools that check clinical trial data against required formats. Certara is based in Radnor, Pennsylvania, and serves drug developers, biotech firms and regulators worldwide.
Where it sits in the stack
Certara has no seat in Rubin or Halo, our indices for the AI hardware and software build-out; it sits instead in the healthcare sleeve of our universe, within health information services. Its software supports drug discovery and regulatory review rather than chip or data-centre production, so it is a customer of computing infrastructure rather than a constituent of it.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet has not assigned a peer group to Certara. The market sometimes compares it with Simulations Plus, another maker of drug-simulation software used in similar stages of development.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Certara sits in the Russell 1000 but carries no Rubin or Halo seat and does not yet carry a Closelooknet score; the diary has not quoted it in the Morning 10 or other editions to date.
What the diary watches
Closelooknet watches whether Certara's shares stabilise after slipping below their 200-day average, since continued weakness would suggest the market expects softer demand for biosimulation ahead of coming drug submissions.

  • Grid — 1×1 up to 2×2. Cells are synchronized: pan or zoom one and the others follow the same dates; the crosshair tracks across all of them. 4 INDICES loads Rubin · HALO · AEI · AW40 side by side.
  • Type / Scale — OHLC, line or area; linear or log price axis.

Picking a series

  • Tap the box in a cell's header to browse every Closelooknet series — headline indices, sub-indices, sectors, layers of all six families — plus the constituents.
  • Or type any ticker (NVDA, 7203.T, ASML.AS …) and press Enter — it charts in the cell straight from our data lake.

Studies

  • Overlays / Oscillators rows toggle the standard set (SMA, Bollinger, RSI, MACD …) per cell.
  • Levels (stock cells) draws the structure engine's support lines — regression bands, pivot cluster, SMA-200, the active fib zone.

Drawing

  • Delete key removes the selected drawing · Escape cancels a half-placed one · Clear wipes the symbol.

  • On stocks the scanner's machine count appears automatically in grey — it is fully editable: drag any point, double-tap a label to remove it, Delete to dismiss it for good, Adopt to bring the machine's proposal back.
  • The sequence picker switches 1-5 / A-B-C / A-E / W-X-Y-Z; 1 2 3 cycles the degree; Subdiv starts a one-degree-smaller child count inside a wave.
