You want to buy below $50? Good luck!

For comparison, Agouron is selling at about 40% of the market cap of Biochem Pharma, which has an aging AIDS drug with a promising application for hepatitis B. Compared to BCHXF, Agouron has a huge pipeline. For the record, Biochem is a buy at this level ($22), but will not increase as much as AGPH.

When the number of switchers to Viracept is announced, in late July, this will be a $120 stock. When European approval is announced, this will be a $120 stock. If Roche buys the company, or a substantial part of it, this will be a $140 stock. The time has passed to look for bargains here.
