Can't argue with that...still, would have
liked to have halved my holdings above $6.
With only something like 23,000 shares changing
hands so far today, sibi is certainly not
tradable...and I never considered it to be.
Remember, I'm one of the guys sitting on a
pile of ntii--so liquidity is certainly not
paramount in my mind. Ooof, sombody just gave
up shares at 4 1/4, ouch.

I suppose it is the willingness to buy shares
at distressed prices which gives an advantage to
individual investors. Today's WSJ shows a table
of small cap fund performance, best fund up some-
thing like 50% for the year. Heh, big deal!

Rick,

However, the "basket" approach worked very effectively for me 12/94, and good third-tier science is a bigger bargain now.

SIBI seems to be dropping some, perhaps on year end tax-loss selling. I've been considering adding some additional SIBI shares, but I'm wondering which among the other small biotechs do you see as the best values at this point for filling your basket.
