Some churning today... Saw an article that suggested that if bmy is bought out, it may not go for all that much, something in the lower $40s I think.
That doesn't seem worth holding it, when pharma is likely to be weak this year, and it may very well trend down some more. Exited that.
Large Scale is very weak today, sell now, ask questions later. Exited that minor position.
SS asked about the gene therapy meeting--after reading the presentation pdf, I did not have good vibes about tgen. I sold a few thousand shares.
CEGE was up nicely today...sometimes I feel that I need to take an acceptable trade, to pay for the loser trades. That is not good trading, but I did it anyway.
I did a suck trade in INCY.
And a couple other minor sucky trades.
fwiw, I have put 1000 eln in an an account where I don't churn. I am going to look at it again in the fall, maybe add another 1000 shares then.
I think I am right around 15% stocks right now.
Genset is doing lousy today. I am not adding any shares of that, but was sorely tempted.
Finally, cphaf had news last week. See the UK news services--seems the insiders gobbled up those shares at five pence--so what is that, somethin like seven cents for cphaf!? Lousy wankers. I bought extra shares with an average price of 15 cents these past six months--Gee, I think I would have liked seven cents a lot better.
Grumpy! (I am on graveyard shift, maybe that explains bad trades and mood!) |
