<<Nobody wants to post with us...>> They would rather go somewhere where they can tell each other about how high the stock is going to go, any day now...any day now... I received in the mail this past week an announcement from Vivus (8.5 X 11, four pages plus inserts) telling me that as a physician I can expect to hear requests from patients for MUSE as a result of the marketing program that is being geared up for February. Actually I didn't check to see if it was to me or to my wife (Family Physician). The FPs might get pissed at the consumer advertising if they don't feel comfortable treating impotence. Let's see, the company is selling all it can make (maybe), they are making 25% less than they used to, and they are ramping up expenses for direct to consumer marketing. Revenues down, expenses up, margin will be squeezed with added competition. Is it any surprise the stock is down 75%? Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot. It's those evil, unAmerican short-sellers.
