tom,

The low volume for Curon is recent. Compared to certain roach motels SI biofreaks have patronized before -- say, KDUS, NBSC -- this is the Ritz. The spreads look fine, here. You want an example of a scary security to trade, check out the liquidity on OGSI! The transaction cost on the spread alone often approaches 10% (currently only mildly rapacious at 6.5%). Nevertheless, I managed a good trade on it, and my second trade is ahead 10% (roughly one month) after transaction cost at the moment. Maybe I can do this with Curon. If not, well, I'm no stranger to public humiliation here on SI. I can handle it.

However, one could argue that CURN isn't really a biotech, more of a medical device company. Does it belong in BLUE HP? Comments?

Cheers, Tuck
