That good news gave no bump up and indeed VVUS tumbled from $6 to near $2!

So the questions are (1) is ARNA's drug better? (I doubt it VVUS folks lost 9-18 pounds as I remember vs 1 pound in the placebo grp. (2) Is ARNA'S management going to do a better job selling the results? And there I think there is some hope....

On the fence but leaning towards yes. ~ stoney]]> Tue, 10 Mar 2009 09:25:50 -0400 good news for VVUS on Dec 11th. That good news gave no bump up and indeed VVUS tumbled from $6 to near $2!

We need perp walks and suits in chains every large short sale that was not accounted for by borrowing the stock should result in formal SEC charges. This is not really about the stocks going down it's the reflection to the world that the banks are having a run on them and that perception is heightened by $2 values accessed on them by the market. What is true and fair value for all of these stocks and America, that is the question and when will all of this use of derivatives and 30 X leverage be policed for real? The very same friends you contacted in regards to short selling may have tucked their guns away for now because of the heightened observation of them and well they should but they are the one's who pushed the boat over the falls to begin with.

I was glad to take my high beta off the table although SIMO & MRVL continue to look good. So there is some logic in not pruning positions but many others fell out of bed. Small caps are beckoning as of two days ago and we will see what today's jobs report brings... in general you would be wise to not buy IBD, I too used to be interested in their change of direction opinions on the market until they blew quite a few calls. Your best sentiment gage is the bear reading from individual investors near 50%!+ the big cash on the sidelines... however this should be measured equally with a very bad earnings period coming up in which companies will point further out at the restricted spending picture by both government and consumer alike. ~ stoney]]> Fri, 06 Jun 2008 08:03:36 -0400 My indicators flashed correction as well and indeed the NaZ dropped near 100 points in one months time and the DOW 600 or so....
