Marty...whew, a lot of good sized trades. A block of 1mm at $10.50, and then several sells in the 5 figures at $10.625 that added up to about 450,000 shares. With so much on the sell-side, it's a wonder that the price has stayed above $10.50. But now the bid is up to $10 13/16, so I guess it was a negotiated sale...maybe the same fund that was selling in March?
These fund managers seem to have adopted a policy of not wanting any exposure to second and third tier biotechs; that plus someone may not wish to hold a biotech with this current feeling of impending weakness of the over-all market.
I just bought a few extra shares for a trading position...probably one or two days and try and scalp a point or two.

Hi Marty,

The last large block sell was SCIO. I wonder was that their entire position or could they be responsible for this sell also. Anyone with any insights as to who it may have been this time? The Scios sell was understandable given their need for cash. I hope this one could be as easily explained away... : )

PS: I did intrepret this as an opportunity and added to my position.
