Harry, adding to the recent sector weakness was rejection last week of several biotech NDA's by FDA. Most notable was the case of DepoTech, and to read the thread (starting at URL below) is a case study of how companies can easily fool themselves and their investors by not understanding (or ignoring) the stringent statistical requirements expected of Phase III trials.

Harry, Bill, and all others,

Have a great holiday and lots of good wishes for the new year.

BTW, Harry, looks like our recent discussion about finishing options expirations and getting past year-end tax selling may yet hold some merit, although the biotech sector may also have generally bottomed out, in general, unless the market gets hit particularly hard. Good luck here and to all.

Best to all,

Marshall
