<<<<Finally, a second person has noticed.>>
Based upon the recent stock price, that seems literally true. We need a third (if his name is Bill Gates).>>
OK, so it didn't have to be Mr. Gates.
This has happened to me three times now (AGPH, SUGN, now SIBI) just this year. I don't like it -- if I wanted more big pharma, I would have bought more big pharma. At least this is cash, and in an IRA so there are no short-term tax hits. Maybe I should just post all my buys on the Munch thread and be done with it.
I wonder if PFE will continue with the lawsuit now. |

Pfizer may be able to assign a value, now that they won't be able to litigate Sibia into oblivion. To PFE, SIBI would be worth litigation costs and possible future royalties (from assay subscribers, and maybe from PFE), plus cash, plus patents and other assets, plus products in development. |

So will everyone else, when they come up to speed. The equally compelling question is "I wonder if MRK will continue with the lawsuit now."
Logical plays for decent returns are pretty apparent.
AGPH, SUGN and SIBI..... I was fine with AGPH. As I've thought about it, I'm more comfortable with SUGN now than "then". However, by any measure, the timing of the Lilly deal relative to this one is bizarre. Sorry, but this one is going to require some sort of secret decoder ring, and they didn't issue one to me.
So..... the AGPH, SUGN and SIBI club.....
Tommysdad, pants up today Rick H. who else?
I know that Miljenko overcame his long-standing reticense recently and finally purchased some SIBI. Did you own AGPH, MZ? |

I had a lot of SUGN (for me), which I more or less regretfully parted with, and a small amount of SIBI ... Somehow, I have a feeling that this isn't the last time this month either!

Hope so! Sure did take long enough to get rolling. This is a strange one. The VGCC/pain program is worth the MRK bucks alone, and I'm certain that it's the MRK focus.
