No, I said that I *didn't* own it.

Nope, just very pleased to see a second "tool" company go out at a big premium, when they're the "out of favor" subsector.

I do own a very, very, very, very small piece of a private company that is a RSTA competitor.

That chunk just went up in value, so perhaps it's now " very, very, very" instead of " very, very, very, very".

In any event, wouldn't even put a noticeable ripple in the college fund.

This graph of NCE approval times is interesting:

fda.gov

I hadn't realized just how many drug approvals take more than 12 months. I don't fully understand the graph, though - if it really was a graph of NDA's received and approved in 36 months shouldn't all the graphs end at 100% because the graph goes out to 36 months? I would assume the missing numbers are NDA's that were approved in longer than 36 months rather than NDA's that were rejected (I think the latter would have been a bigger number).

This table of Subpart H approvals (surrogate endpoint) is also interesting:

BTW, I commented briefly on the RSTA deal over on the munch thread:
