Potential Investors. This thread has a tendency to be rather bullish VVUS. For the record, I'm long the stock. I've traded this one three times over the past year. I'm on my third trade at present. It wasn't intended to be this way. Every time I've purchased, I've been advised that I had gotten an excellent price. That was at about 6.00/share. Got out at between 10 - 11/share about 10 days later. Came back in when the stock dropped again. Subsequently, PW recommended the stock, we went to 10.00/share at the close. Sold the next morning (couldn't believe the way the stock was being hammered.) Got back in on the next drop. It kept dropping. And kept dropping. And kept dropping. We've been as low as about 2.00/share. Some of the posters here are "locked into" this one. I've been fortunate enough to average down. I'd have a profitable trade if I sold now. Until I see a domestic partner I still consider this one to be a VERY speculative play. BUYER BEWARE. Still long & holding. If you're considering an investment in this one, you may want to consider your reaction if VVUS drops to 1 1/2 per share from it's present level. I don't want this to become a "blue sky" thread.
