Ah, GUMM, those were the days...

So, a $4 million ad campaign to generate a $1.6 million increase in sales? Losing $2.7 million in the very prime of cold season? Nicht zer gut.

Oh but look, they've got a patent. Maybe NEJM will publish them now.

Pete,

You have to remember two things here:

1) Big money pro's like Mike and Dan ALWAYS get into highly speculative stocks like GUMM at absolutely the lowest price. Therefore, they are always "ahead" no matter how low the price drops after a big run up.

2) Zicam sales are impressive and still skyrocketing from quarter to quarter no matter how much money the company loses. Just ask Dan and he'll spin the numbers to prove it.
