"MGI Pharma Cancer Drug Eliminates Human Tumors In Mice" hit the Dow Jones wire at 3:09 PM. I'm surprised it took an entire minute for traders to jump on it! (Scrolling headlines are wonderful)

May 14, 1998/FOOLWIRE/ -- MGI Pharmaceuticals
(Nasdaq: MOGN) gave back $2 1/16 to $10 3/4 after the company's 65% advance
yesterday that came about due to management remarks at its annual meeting
about its anticancer drug, MG 114. Chief Operating Officer James V. Adam
told shareholders that the company believes MG 114 is "... just as
promising, and just as unproven, as other cancer therapies recently
discussed in the media." Adam is talking about EntreMed's (Nasdaq: ENMD)
anticancer drugs, which were highlighted in a New York Times piece that
drove its stock up dramatically in one day.

Mr Bear

I spent the last three days at Disneyland.
(No papers and no news)

I think the volume was more interesting than the
price change. While I would assume that those big
thinkers with big institutional money followed the price up,
I wonder if any of this buying could be MGI's potential
Euro partner.

This stock could go to $100/sh and would still hold
until I see that Phase II data.

crazy like a fox and in at $4

I dunno what was under that wave, something strange in the neighborhood of small stocks lately. A frothy stalled market with weird spikes appearing out of the bubbles. Has anyone thought of calling Ghost Busters?
