From my uneducated POV, I see the following positives: research in a good area, some competitive advantage, 2-3 years of cash at current burn rate (sufficient), well regarded by the SI bio-crowd, small market cap.

Negative: need appointment to trade. 7600 shares per day on average. Long time (3-5 years?) to wait for an approved and marketable product.

Overall: GREAT risk/reward for the patient investor. Little downside.

I will buy unless somebody tells me I missed something.

Season's Greetings.

Rick,

Remember mid-day posts on VRTX?

>>I don't know if I buy that. [ * BTRN, BTRN, BTRN, BTRN, BTRN, BTRN * ]>>
Well, cap size makes a big delta here with VRTX closing in on $1B versus $50M. I see they are working on REGN now and that is sort of between the other two. I'm betting they will get to the micro-caps soon. Amazing market.. :)

Well they got there for a few thousand shares! What will happen with real volume?
<GGG>
