Some nutcase analyst on CNBC said a few minutes ago that Zonagen has a product as good as Viagra, which will go before the FDA in two months -- he said the stock could double.

I'm more than beginning to feel that the tables at Zona are rigged as bad as Ktel. I went short at $19 figuring I'd have an easy ride down Viagra Falls. Silly me for starting on the wrong end of the waterfall. Those calls sure are pricey.

Roger, I never followed ZONA. But after I did a thorough research on how EVERY drug company CHEATS on the data analysis and how they hired people who had working experience in FDA previously to run the test...it's easy to see that ZONA will have its drug passed by FDA and this issue doubling from current level. I can't name them...But according to my research and secret sources, at least six bona-fide drugs on market were passed after some nice manipulation on the data distribution.:( That's why one of my friend who works in MRK confessed that he would never take any drugs unless it's absolutely necessary. Call it another mass stupitidy. And I won't short any of those issues because of...mass stupidity. good luck, larry!

Roger... >>I keep shorting more, but worry that it is going to "ktel" me. << Well I did not have anything to do with KTEL but I am also about 10 points underwater with ZONA. Keep shorting, hold the hand or fold??? I am holding but ZONA is eating up my profits in ZITL! Good Investing to All. Bob T.

I give up Roger. Why did Entremed go from 12 to as high as 85 yesterday on preliminary lab results that are miles and miles away from being an approved drug? The market has really gone off the deep end on wild speculation. There was also a report that Urologists are warning about Viagra's potential side effects. I think this is what spiked ZONA even higher. I would bet that ZONA will suffer a sharp sell off once they announce an NDA filing but I would not want to re-short it until then.
