Ron, there's an article in next week's Business Week about the progress of cancer research. Three companies and their drugs were mentioned: Genetech, Centocor, and MedImmune. No EntreMed.

Regards,

Tom

Ron,

ENMD, like many other biotechs, has not turned a profit. How do you determine fair market value on an unprofitable company? The market cap at 31 is $384 million. Why do you think it is worth $12 a share? Why not $2?

The marketplace believes it is worth $31 today. That will certainly change -- and the change will be based on the marketplace's perception of ENMD's future prospects. The NCI seems to think that angiostatin and endostatin are somewhat special, as illustrated by the fast track that NCI is putting their reputation -- and money -- behind.

By all means, short ENMD if you can find the shares to borrow. I'd rather put my money on Judah Folkman's research. You may put some money in your pocket. Maybe, maybe not. Good luck.
