It is odd: the stock traded higher when there was real uncertainty about ODAC outcome. The outcome was extremely favorable to CRXA and the stock trades lower. I had thought that the market had already bet outcome would be negative...

Take a look at how Vernalis traded after the approval of Frova. Sometimes the market offers a bargain which you shouldn't question too much.

(edit)

Admittedly there was a timelag before it really hit the bargain basement, but it was one of my few seriously profitable bios of 2002.

Harold,

It is worth recalling that CRXA sold some 8.5 million shares of stock (at $6.20) and low-priced warrants in a PIPE last August. Wouldn't surprise me if some of those buyers were disgorging their shares at a small profit into the heavy volume after the ODAC meeting.
