Assuming that the news is very positive at the ASCO convention, and we see a "significant" spike in share price as a result (plus possible positive press or articles), would it not be safe to say that there would be a gradual erosion in share price once the story cools off, and the market waits for approximately 12 months for Phase III news?

I have been long on this stock for well over 2 years, and will continue to be. However, I will be inclined to sell a good portion of my holdings immediately after a runup. News seems to be the catalyst for biotechs like Biomira -- once the news drys up, so does the share price. I feel there may be ample time to buy back in at lower prices if we see an initial runup this month.

Some input from the thread would be appreciated on these thoughts.

Good luck to all.
