I have been a vvus stockholder for some time. I doubled up several times on the way down. Hope to enjoy the ride up which I see coming so soon.
Many times on this thread over the past months I have seen references to Viagra being "black-boxed." From the context of th messages as they relate to the Viagra deaths, it is obvious that it would be bad for PFE and good for VVUS, but just specifically what does it mean to be "black-boxed?"
