Heh, so much for that little bit of salvage work. I should think this is trivial for Icahn, he may not even think about this one anymore. That European biotech trust has to unload his shares, and then there is BVF still. Have not kept very good track, my shares are paid for and even the 5M (gosh, hope they haven't spent the 5M on lawyers this summer) ...the 5M could be returned to shareholders, so what is that, forty cents maybe.
I sorta figure there is a good chance of a couple or three bucks, and I can always curse the patent office if Merck keeps the 18M. When is judgement day?
But if I remember right you were looking at royalites several years down the line and maybe were not expecting the cash.
More than a little risky this one, but what the heck, you only live once--and selling everything for Merck and Pfizer takes all the spice out of playing the sector. You'll never see me do it. (ouch, bad Karma--now one of those goliaths will probably offer $8 for SNAP, shit) |
