>> Since you say no one in their right mind would buy at $10, why have these institutional investors put money into this private placement?>>

They have shorted the stock, taken delivery of the new stock from the private placement and pocketed the difference. An easy way to make some money. There has been no news to motivate the price rise. The stock is not worth more now than it was a month ago. Why should anyone take the risks investing in this company?

>>How would this news change the instinct to short this stock, at the $12 level?>>

Not at all. The stock will fall back again, regardless .

>>Regarding the technology, VTAs: is this the same as anti-angiogenesis tech?>>

Oxigene have their own version. They used to have BMY as a partner, but they returned the product rights.
