IMNR was #10 on the Nasdaq's most advanced list. Something's definitely up. I covered my short and went long, just before the bell. The trading in the last 15 minutes was pretty frantic.

It isn't good to think in terms of needing some winning stocks. If you have a shaky financial situation, you have to address that without depending on the stock market. The money you stick there has to be "play money", money that you can afford to lose. Assuming that isn't true, the best strategy is buy and ignore. The stock acts well, but you know how fickle it is. She's a real lady. You have to true to her in order for her to show you her favors.

Sorry, MJ, no offense meant to you personally, but I have a pet peeve about investors claiming they want their company to be successful (e.g., to conquer disease for humankind). Total crap, in my not-so-humble opinion. Do you also want Hollis-Eden to be successful in their immune based therapy ("Reversionex" is their drug). It would help AIDS sufferers, but it could kill IMNR's stock. Would AGPH shareholders root for DuPont's Sustiva? If I owned AGPH, I wouldn't. I invest to make money, not solve the world's problems. IMNR will help RA sufferers, or AIDS sufferers, with or without my investment. It's not that I don't care about the world's problems; I do. But those concerns don't impact my investment decisions. I invest for only 2 reasons. The primary one is to make money; the secondary one is to undertake a challenge. That's it.
