That is very generous to use the word specialist, as mainly I am just mooching what look like the best ideas from about a dozen other folks--then following them up with my own snooping around the internet, reading up on Yahoo, checking out the company websites, recent news releases, status of clinical work etc (much of the science I do not fully understand--so that is a warning to newbies just out shopping for symbols!) and of course there is lots of good information here on SI. Of course anybody stumbling onto any post of mine would do well to do their own DD, that goes without saying. Also, say somebody had a hankering for biotech...but wanted to ease in, I'd say that they should average into that new Janus fund...or maybe HQL or HQH over the next few years...I wouldn't be laying all my money on the line right now with the market so toppy. What I am throwing in there is exclusively on third tier neglected issues--the sort of stuff that shows up on the T/FIF thread for example. Happy trades! --Mike

Speaking of BioTechs - ASTM is doing a surprise move this afternoon. No news, no rumors, no hype anywhere and a surge of buying volume all of a sudden. Two possibilities... 1. News leaking about contracts being signed in Europe. 2. Buying coming in from one of the few BioTech Forums/Conventions going on around the country.
