Hi Rick, I have know idea how Idec will hold in the short run but I do think it is important to distinguish between next weeks FDA panel meeting and the actual FDA approval. As we all know the FDA in almost all cases goes along with the FDA panel's decision and if the stock were to sell off on good news from the panel I believe it would be short in duration as buyers would surface as the actual FDA approval approaches. There is no telling when the actual FDA approval would happen assuming a successful panel meeting but under the Clinton oncology initiative, supposedly all cancer applications to the FDA are to be approved/disapproved within six months of the filing date. Since Idec/Genentech filed the end of Feb and publically announced the filing the first part of March, we might anticipate the FDA approval sometime the end of August or the beginning of September.
