Whilst it may not be a huge deal, we thought it was good to see that the Immix Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:IMMX) Independent Director, Jason Hsu, recently bought US$52k worth of stock, for US$2.23 per share. However, it only increased their shares held by 2.6%, and it wasn't a huge purchase by absolute value, either.

Notably, that recent purchase by Independent Director Jason Hsu was not the only time they bought Immix Biopharma shares this year.
