Mike, any recent thoughts on Cell Genesys? I and some others on the thread (like you) flipped some at prices above 10, and Skeeter and I dumped our remaining holdings (in the mid to upper 8's I think) when they announced what looks like a reg-S floorless convertible (1965 Plymouth Valiant kept in New England) a few months ago. Has been slowly sliding ever since... 7 right now. Also, any opinions on COAGX? (Caldwell & Orkin Market Opportunity). An open end mutual fund that can be up to 40% short. 29.37% return last year ain't bad, nor do I consider 16.9% 5 year average return too bad either, although the SP500 beats it. 1.34% looks like a good expense ratio, too. Cheers, HB
