Hi Jim----If you look at the carnage in the biotech stocks in general you will not feel that Vical is being singled out. The average stock in this group is down approximately 40%. All you have to look at are the two closed end funds (HQL and HQH) which are listed on the NYSE to get a good picture of the group. With reference to VICL in particular there is no evidence of any negative news to account for the decline. Frankly, I think it is very close to the bottom having dropped 50% from its high last year although it appears that they have been making much scientific progress including 2 patents which may prove to quite valuable. Also, please note that in the absence of institutional interest the market makers will maintain minimum inventories. When the time comes the initial upside movement will come without warning and be quite dramatic. Nobody can pick the bottom but if I were a long term investor I would be buying now. LOTS OF LUCK||||||||
