I passed on VICL. I don't understand anything about the business so I only have looked cursorily at the numbers as a below-cash play.

There's $5/sh in cash. Maybe their burn rate is $1/sh/yr. (annualizing last quarter's $5m loss) So they've got plenty of money maybe to go for four years to come up with some products they can sell or joint-venture. And they have a lot of stuff apparently. So that's all good.

OTOH, as a below-cash play, next year they'll have $4 sh/cash declining to maybe $3/sh (??). To me that's not attractive when I looked at the stock price. It was ~$4/sh.

Well, stock's at $4.71 now (and topped $5) today, so the market's telling me I might've made the wrong decision here.
