True it is pre-clinical, but IMO milestones along the way will keep interest up. Successful animal studies would propel the stock bigtime. The important thing is that CTII appears to have grabbed a key position in what will emerge over the next 5 years as one of the hottest, most promising fields in medicine. Harvesting, expansion, and guided stimulation of autologous stem cells, then replacement in the body....that's ultimately going to rid us of some diseases afflicting populations in the tens of millions.
I think the market is willing to price future events into the stock--
hey, look at the future earnings currently assumed and priced into Yahoo? I think the odds of CTII getting a piece of the clinical pie
are at least as good.
A final point--as CTII progresses, they will be more and more valuable to a potential suitor. The big pharmas won't want to be left out of this party and they have huge bucks for acquisitions/licensing deals.
What do you think of CTII as a potential acquisition target in the nearer term?
