betty ann - <The correct time to buy AMGN, according to O'Neil was in Mar of 90 when it was trading at 60! > I would have prefered to be incorrect and bought at, say, 8-10. As you know, O'Neil is an earnings growth guy; stocks like LGND don't even show up on his radar because they have not yet demonstrated sustained earnings growth.

I think you are correct in that most of the threaders are long-term holders (although sometimes you can't tell it by the minute-to-minute price quotes). If one believes that the science is sound and the management is on the right course, it is not "jumping the gun." You are simply taking a risk that you judge to be more than offset by the potential reward.
