Peter,

looking at just the biotech news there has been reason for weakness

BGEN mediocre earnings - yes

AMGN dispute with TKTX - (a) when isn't AMGN involved in a patent dispute, (b) this ones been a known issue for a couple of years

CRA punctured hype - yes, just miscalled which part of the Haseltine/Venter unholy alliance would get busted for hype first (though I guess HGSI is getting called on CCR5)

VPHM crash - yes

And remember one of the hallmarks of the early stages of the rally was the market going, "So what if ISIP blew their lead candidate up, what can I buy now?"

SEPR - monster ruling, but has had a hard time holding the gain (looks like it might be bouncing now)

That said, I'm starting to look at a lot of shiny, pretty things a these prices. Hopefully, they're not still knives <g> Now many more stocks fit my criteria of being something I'm willing to hold for 2 or 3 years.
