Anthony, I was just kidding about your Viagra post.

The Eisinger article is great and covers all sides of the issue. At only $70 per year for daily articles of value on many aspects of the market I feel bad giving it away for free.

Advise anyone to get a free trial and then spend the $70. Cancel your subscription to something else as you won't have time to read it anymore.

Here is the start and conclusion.

Few, if any, investors think the drug won't get the nod for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a
disease in which a patient's own immune system attacks itself, leading to debilitating
pain and swelling. Enbrel is a receptor that floats freely in the body soaking up a
protein called Tumor Necrosis Factor. TNF is a necessary immune system cytokine
that is overproduced by RA patients.

"Concludes Sacane with wise words that extend beyond the Enbrel situation: "Our
philosophy remains that any time investors must rely on a biotech company to
perfectly navigate its way through multiple commercialization obstacles in order to
merely justify current valuation, the risk-to-reward ratio almost always favors selling
the stock."

Not that the copyright laws expire in a few days but I will post the entire thing by Friday. Don't own stock in any of the companies covered but just think it's an insightful article.
