It's really Shep's thread--I've been in and out of MAGN and have not follwed it as seriously. But I feel pretty good about being in now...hope the interest keeps up, but not letting myself get excited yet. When you start to read about some of the medical conditions behind the drugs these biotechs are trying to get out, it sort of pulls you back out of greed mode, very sobering.
As far as the stock, fortunately, I really have no descisions to make short term, I'm in this one for the announcement with the fall back plan of letting the shares cook through Squalamine...you probably saw my yahoo post which spelled that out. However, if traders want to take it up before the FDA speaks, I'll be happy to sell a third of my shares up around 3 1/2, moves before news is free money. If pex is approved I'd have a hard time selling any shares below about $6, and only half then. The other half will be paid for, move them to the back, let em cook for a long time.
I would love to know what biotechnav is saying about MAGN lately, I think they had it out as a hold, with a "watch for developments", but I don't know what they have out in the latest newsletter. If pex is approved you can be sure they'll switch that to a buy, but the primary move will be over by the time that happens. If if if, make no mistake, my idea is a 50/50 chance on this with the payoff greater than the downside risk.
It is a great honor to have stolen the 200th post from you Shep...and I didn't really even say anything. |
