I also took a token position in my previously owned and sold QLTI on Friday.. Their potential competitor is EYET, which went public couple of days ago (in PH III trial) so only QLTI in their niche..

Given that this is a daytrading thread, your swap may well be a winning one. But Macugen (EYET's PhIII product) requires an injection directly into the eyeball 6 times a year. The risk of serious side effects is much higher than that for Visudyne which requires only 3 annual injections into the arm and effectiveness relative to placebo doesn't seem to be nearly as good for Macugen. Unless they come up with different facts as they complete their PHIII, I can guarantee that there's at least one potential patient (me) who will take Visudyne treatment rather than Macugen.

FWIW,
