I hadn't looked at this for a while, thought the thread might find this of interest:

This is a pretty big institutional holding for such a small cap stock. In addition, I looked at insider buying/selling activity. There wasn't any for 1997, a number of the above bought shares in 1996 and have apparently held them ever since.

Boy, Murphy for all his noise only holds 22,000 shares!

Insite presents at the H&Q conference Wednesday at 2 pm. If I remember correctly from the past couple of years, they have issued press releases the same day as they present at the conference. I hope they have some excellent news this year - trading volumes have been pretty heavy lately, perhaps someone already knows something or there is a lot of speculation. I'd love to see them finally have a partner for the glaucoma test kit.
