Jeff, Glad to here you held on for the run up. Like I said I would expect
to see further run up over the next 12 to 18 months for patient investors.
There are several trends that I like and believe to be very promising.

1) GENE has lost money for the four years 91-94, and it was not great losses
only like 12 cents/share, 16 cents/share, 33 cents/share (not the exact
numbers for the years but close enough for this discussion) and then in
1995 they made 5 cents/share.

2) The last quarter was a profit of 15 cents/share.

3) Last year they signed two collaberative agreements:
August 95 with Astra AB
Dec. 95 with Schering - Plough

4) The positive comments from USA Today article and fund manager in my
earlier post.

5) My Broker has been good with these types of recommendations. I was
in GENE earlier for a very good profit, and expect to hold on longer term
this time. The news since my investment last year is looking even
brighter, so I think it can keep going up.

6) Brokerage firms don't usually publish recommendations on stocks when
they are speculative and losing money. GENE made money last year and has
followed with a very good quarter (3x all of last year). I would expect
things can only go up from here and more following with brokerage houses
and respect from the Biotech community.

7) The way things looked last week to me is that GENE has a base around
$9 to $10 so you should feel safe with this investment over the next year+.

Of course these are only my semi-educated guesses, but I think they carry
more common sense than a so called WSJ writer publishing an article on
IOMG hype. (I only say this because I am one of the IOMG investors that
is bucking the trend and watching my investment grow daily/weekly.)

Sorry, I don't know anything about AMLN, ARRS, and RZYM. Can you compare
these companies side by side with GENE and see which is more attractive.
You can get into sec.gov
to look at the
SEC documents on companies and may help you out.

Good Luck Tara ;-)
