Re: TELK

On its weekly chart,the stock hasn't been able to get off its long term down trend coming from the April 2004 H at the 29.67 level in spite of occasional spikes like the ones in June,October and November 2004,and the more recent one on May 13.<g>

On its daily chart, the stock closed its March 16 down-gap as it bounced up from its April 1 L of 14.29 and in early May it started to get off the near term downtrend coming from the October 4 H at 24.08 and after the aforementioned spike on May 13 with an intra-day H of 19.87, it almost tested the January 21 H of 20.10, but since then it resumed its down-trend and the stock is now testing the April 1 L.<g>

I would wait on buying until we get more evidence that the April L (14.29) is going to hold and the stock starts showing some signs that it will start an up-move.<g>

It hasn't been able to get an up-move started in spite of the two presentations in NY this week and the encouraging results reported last week of TELCYTA's P1-2a on patients with NSCLC.

It seems to have enough cash, reportedly around 258.2M or almost $5/share and only $2M of LTD with a Debt/Eqt Ratio around 0.008, to be able to keep burning cash for a while at its present rate.(The estimated loss for the current year is around $1.72/share (about $0.12/share more than last Yr.) and for 2006 the EL is somewhat lower, around $1.43/share.

Besides the P1-2a on TELCYTA that it announce last week, TELK also has 3 PIIIs going on TELCYTA (Two on patients with ovarian Ca and one on patients with advanced NSCLC ) and is also conducting a PII on patients with NSCLC and a PII with its TELINTRA in patients with MDS.

The PSML and PS on TELK at present: 14.67 14.90 15.62 16.34 and 18.64 all on a frank DOWTREND.
