BIG problem with investing in a stock like this. You might get caught up in an Entremed situation (buying on a runup based on anticipation, then getting killed when it collapses). Or the drug may be years away (very likely - as in Entremed). The drug may still have questionable qualities (again, like Entremed) that need to be overcome.
But biggest of all.....killing HIV in culture is NOTHING AT ALL similar to killing it in the human body. I can kill HIV in culture with bleach. That doesn't represent a real test or potential of much of anything. What is the delivery system? What are potential side effects? Is it on a fast track? Etc. Etc.
Watch yourself on this one.
