V1,

<<Lets start a discussion about any of the companies that you feel should be sold or our position reduced>>

I guess my two biggest issues would be the heavy overweight of LGND and the Genzyme contingent. I agree that LGND is good value (I have some in my own portfolio), but I question whether it should be nearly 20% of the entire portfolio. The LGND story is so complicated, that I fear it's going to take some significant product sales to convince the street that they're for real.

I worry about GZTC, with their recent floorless convertible (the game is going to be to spot the 5 days when the preferred owners are going to be shorting like crazy at the close).

On the long side, I would still push for PCYC. Take a look at my post on their thread for my out-of-context quote of the H&Q analyst on the prospects for Gd-Tex. Compare its market cap to that of CLTR, which is maybe starting to look a little pricey. Also MLNM looks cheap to me, and maybe ARQL.

Peter ("petty official" indeed! This is the last new thread that you're associated with that I'm going to approve - unless that job offer is _really_ good, of course.)
