dpii is trading below $3 again, I guess I will crank up my radio button rating of the shares in a futile attempt to prevent being stopped out. I'm only down 5% so far...I'll wait til I've lost 20% and then give up my shares to a more saavy buyer than I am.
Another crappy year for me, that'll be five years of no gains, er, I mean regressing to mean performance. Can't last forever these lousy picks--or can it? The obvious answer is that mucking about with so-called value in biotech simply means that you have bought into business on which everybody has given up. As we know, sexy biotechs do well, and competent biotechs do well--and even stuff like Ariad can at least go to the well, over and over and stay in business.
But there might be a limit to how low one ought to bottomfish and expect results. I think I found that limit down here with the muckworms.
I would really like to see BVF buy into dpii, and who knows, maybe that fund is nibbling but hasn't yet triggered any filings, who knows. But as I said, they'll probably be getting in finally when I finally freak out and sell in the middle $2's. PCOP has also done poorly the past couple weeks--but for my watch list, dpii has done the very worst for 8/18 to 8/24. finance.yahoo.com (dpii was off 4%, worst, amri up 6% best for that five day period) |
