I originally bought into this stock last September as a short term play anticipating ENBREL approval in November. Had expected to sell on the news, and could have done so with a sizeable profit. But the more I looked at the company, the more I became convinced that it is a great medium/long term holding. It has a lot more going for it than just ENBREL (although that's a sizeable market in and of itself). Other products include Novantrone which will almost certainly be approved for chronic progressive MS within the next few months, Leukine, the cancer drug (also a CHF candidate), and in my view most promising of all (financially) is is their inhalable asthma drug Nuvance.

The company has always had great science, but now its moving from being just another promising biotech researcher to a profitable pharma company. So don't write it off just because its not a large cap!

Cheers.


PS: My cat also sits on my monitor. She doesn't read charts either -- she's too busy trying to hypnotize me, boring holes in my head with her eyes.
