The better question is what can prevent Ligand from reaching $25? I think the only realistic scenario for that is that a miracle cure against cancer makes Ligands cancer medications obsolete and at the same time the non cancer parts of Ligands pipeline does not have much success.

The usual stumbling blocks for biotech companies like disappointing trial results, unexpected side effects or missed FDA approvals could delay the move to $25 but with Ligands excellent pipeline and financial position there is no danger that the company disappears into obscurity.

On the chance for approval front both Panretin and Targretin look very good. I have no doubt that the Panretin gel will be approved.

Ligand shares seem to know only two conditions. Seriously undervalued is alternating with a even more undervalued state. Im curious if Ligand shares will ever be overvalued.

Another good question with a less clear answer is wether Ligand will reach $25 early enough to make it a good investment for current shareholders?
