Alys, someone e-mailed the following to me from aol. It's what I call common sense;
"The biotech index continued to consolidate over the last two months
although it is flirting with support as I write. More significant is the
continued bashing of Techniclone here and on SI. It seems apparent to me
that ALL the bad news has been discounted and there is little left that
would surprise the market on the downside; except those with hidden
agendas. I liken this sentiment to that of IBM back in 1994 following the
dividend cut in February
when the stock was trading at $50 (unadjusted for 2/1 split). It finally
bottomed in the low 40's. Eastman Kodak is another case in point; how much
more bad news can be unexpected to the market. It is likely a good
accumulation stock at these levels.

All stockholders will benefit from the naming of a new CEO including
existing management. This stock has bottomed year after year after year in
late fall. It should be no different this time around except that there
will be at least two ongoing trials next year, hopefully with interim
reports that may act to generate new followers, new buyers and most
importantly new patients with a strong hope to survive with a humane
treatment for a horrible
disease.
The product pipeline is there, the money should be there soon and the
negative sentiment is too thick for the stock to remain down here much
longer. The stock should be accumulated at these levels with a much more
promising outlook into a new year."ÿ

The writer is Arty Baker, a very good technician but also somewhat fundamental.

I'll try to stop today's contribution at two cents worth. Davis

And thank YOU too Alys! Techniclone does have one patent that I can confirm and I'm not saying that the science is bad at all...I hope that it isn't too late for Techniclone even assuming a complete change in management IS achieved! The patent...
patent.womplex.ibm.com
I truly feel for yourself and the other shareholders who have been led down this primrose path....Good luck on replacing the management.I would certainly love to see any gains in the war on cancer but remember even if they do get these drugs past all the trials they still have a long battle with the big drug companies. AGPH just had a lesson in that recently I believe. I am still trying to figure out why Techniclone would sell the rights to Oncolym in the FIRST place!
That struck me as kind of strange for a company trying to MAKE money to sell the rights to one of their most promising products!
Anyway...good luck to you and Happy Holidays!
