Rick, I can't help thinking about your noting that AGPH and GILD market caps were about the same despite the difference in price per share. It is a great point and I hope this insight will help me overcome my fear of heights (AGPH).

To better educate myself, I ran a screen on the drug/bio company universe to compare market caps. Is a AGPH or GILD worth 1/110th of a Merck, or 1/15th of an Amgen. I don't know... but this listing sure makes me think!
