I can understand that the ability to make up a new test protocol within days is a huge plus. Any idea how it could be done? Is this saying that Junior is really a master in the lab who now has ability to crack any code? Or does it speak of some new research method? I am hesitant to ask if it is just hot air. At least as I understand it, it seems that the new wave of drug research is to concentrate on some protein or acid in a segment of dna and the research is a seeking of that which will cause it to act differently. Is that a fair statement? Is this perhaps simply a statement that we now know how to test for "x" protein or "y" acid, and when we read the light emitted during testing we can tell its exact quality by where the light falls on the light spectrum - I am sure that is a bad example, but could it be something on that sort of order? Whatever, I can see that it would be good and would quickly lead to sales to every research lab.
I have felt the run up could be the result of negotiations which are signalling that settlement is near and such news is somehow leaking out. Obviously, it also could be from the evaluation a major buyer is placing on the long term prospects of the stock. I have long been impressed with the accuracy of your evaluations on the stock, but I have to think that has no relevance to the price of the stock until your view is shared by enough buyers or sellers to move the price. So I still am pleased to see your views shaping the market.
