What the Conflict in Gaza Means for Financial Markets

Welcome to the circus. This little neighborhood conflict will be over soon and it is not going to affect anthing but Hamas ability to influence. If there was anyone going to get involved further (Iran?) they should have done it earlier. It will be over in a very short time. Now if Israel can control itself afterwords at the same time protecting it's citizens we can get back to some sanity in the world. I find it abhorant to even discuss an investment opportunity when people are dying on both sides.

Pfizer Gives Sangamo a Vote of Confidence

Nice commentary but this payment is just for the one GMP cell line application or affect. If Pfizer plans to do more research or discovery work in any area they are going to have to pony up 25k more each time and get ZFN's from Sangamo's partner Sigma. Thats still quite a deal but it also is an ongoing revenue stream. Keep that in mind when you thing about perpetuity.
