Neuro portfolio, good idea. I do or have owned almost the list. Drugs for neurological purposes can be cash cows because they are used for many chronic conditions -- schizophrenia, epilepsy, affective disorders, parkinsonism, alzheimers.

I don't recommend buying Elan, but recommend monitoring it. They've taken out two neuro companies in the last couple years, Athena and Neurex. Their success with Diastat, Ziconotide, etc. will have a bearing on how developmental neuro companies are valued.

As to Elan itself, the market may be telling us that there are problems ahead.
