Peter, have been looking at Elan recently. Has market cap of about $9.5B, $1B in cash and another $1B in equity holdings in cyto, tgen, lgnd, emis and a host of other companies with lower market caps. The company seems poised to grow with several drugs pending FDA approval. It had $1B in sales last year and analysts project they can double those sales within 3 years.

Have you looked at Elan before? Any opinion?

Value sure is hard to find now. GLIA, ELAN and another company that shall remain nameless for now (still researching, Rick) are the only reasonably valued biopharms on my radar.

Watch out below when HGSI fails in clinical trials. We will again have buying opps. Until then the rally may very well continue.
