OXGN.. pretty similar to ENZN..both are small stocks with 'promising' drugs on their drawing board. I would not put my life savings into either one of them but they are both good for 'pops' when the word 'promising' is used related to their latest drug study. They retreat as quickly as they rise, but I would not be averse to holding 500-1,000 of each of these long term through their rollercoaster rides. If you are looking for a 'finish line' in this race. I think ENZN has the edge with its drug.
