Hope, greed, fear--who was it who signed his posts "lather, rinse, repeat". I like that. But I have never been a very good trader. A little over ten years ago, I made a nice bit of change in overtime one summer. I pissed it all away trying to trade stocks on a time scale of weeks to months. Plus, I've never been able to put any faith in technical charts of shareprice and such. I know it can be done, just not by me. I do think I can trade over longer holding periods. At least that is what I am hoping this time. Hope now, greed maybe later, ha. In any event, the computer I am on is giving me access to "Crystal structure of an Hsp90–nucleotide–p23/Sba1 closed chaperone complex" How can I trade stocks when I have this to try and decode? <g> You know "The structure confirms the ATPase-coupled molecular clamp mechanism and provides a structural basis from which to understand the ATP-dependent activation of Hsp90 client proteins." That sounds pretty interesting--enough that I'm saving the pdf and logging out of SI for today!

GLGC bottoming out around $2.30?? finance.yahoo.com It is behaving a lot like DPII did six to nine months ago. If they have to scrap their business and go the same route as DPI, I would imagine they would be able to offer suitors about $50M cash after all is said and done. Perlegen maybe should do this now--with the market in a funk and such. There might be some overlap between the two companies that could be salvaged too. Thoughts? I guess the thought crossed my mind at least once before, back in February '05. Message 21062618 (last paragraph)
