Two thoughts...... first, it looks like this is providing an op for someone that needed to bail. Second, this deal could be good or bad, from what we've seen thus far. We'll need to see some guidance from the relatively few analysts that follow the company (and pray that the guidance is close). If the royalty ass'd with the option is %10 or less, it's a lousy deal IMO. If the royalty is >20%, it's a great deal. I'm guessing that the royalty ass'd with 3182 and other newer molecules will be in the neighborhood of 10%, given that Lilly adopts all development costs.

One other factor..... the biotech rally in top-tier and partial recovery in secondaries has led to the return of the "short" crew. Rallies are being cut short in several issues. While I don't expect that any of the shares being sold in SIBI are shorts, the fear-mongers *have* returned to pick at sector bones.

Not going to be boring!
