Had I known that I would not get a return on my investment I would have invested into the S&P500 or into Dell instead. When I started looking into biotechs in 1996 I perceived Ligand as undervalued compared to its intelectual property, pipeline and lack of risk of long term failure. Had I known that the street only respects earnings in Ligands case than I would have known that it was actually overvalued for much of the last two years and the price should have moved from $7 in 1996 to $12 today (discounting expected earnings at 30% a year with a PE of 25). I don't see any sense in abandoning Ligand now after it finally reached a correct price. After all I have the potential upside that the street may in future recognize something beyond earnings.
