I get too old and I’ll raise you all in. I’m grandpa to one and that’s just fine by me. He’s four and can tire me out many times over. And, oh yeah, his college fund just got a nice boost. He was smart enough to buy AMRN last year.

I am not a lawyer but that sounds like restraint of trade, a cause of action, no?
If you exercise a $4 call your cost basis on each share will be the call premium paid plus commission plus $4. If you then turn around and sell the share you create a short term capital gain It would make far more sense to wait until December or January and sell the call creating a long-term capital gain. You will give up the spread (a fraction of a dollar) and save the difference between short term and long term capital gains tax rates. If your intention is to own shares after that transaction then buy them on the market with the cash from the sale of the calls, after allowing a reserve for the tax liability. You will own fewer shiares than you would if you simply exercise your calls but you will need to put up the $4 for each share if you exercise and you may never be able to get LTCG treatment if your sell those shares before another year goes by. You also have the option of a so-called cashless exercise where you exercise your calls then sell enough shares to cover the $4 per share cash needed.
I hope greg19 stays around and keeps posting. Each of us has an opinion about what has happened and what should or will happen here, which opinion is informed by our individual perspective and experience. I want to hear greg19’s opinion as much as I want to hear yours.
I was a little surprised when they required me to complete the withholding option form on a lwithdrawal I made from my Roth for a down payment on a house, since that withdrawall was certainly not a taxi event. But I remember the form being for IRA withdrawals. I don’t remember if there was an RMD checkbox.
Thanks! I remember reading your post with detailed history but with limited privileges on the board I couldn't find it on my own. Yes, anecdotal from one very credible person.
Hawk, thank you very much. I think I remember seeing that as well but I don’t see on my laptop that I downloaded and saved a copy. That link should certainly be worthy of becoming a permanent sticky on our board. In any case if you find it when you return to your base and can post it I would be very grateful, as would many others most likely.
Maybe Hawk’s reply will trigger someone else’s recollection?
Of course, even a complete list of all EPA trials may not be an adequate list of all the benefits that have been mentioned by posters on this board.
Get real. It's the fact that it's placebo that alters the effect of the statin. My bathroom contractor told me that.
will re-post after verifying.
I'm looking for a summary of the various benefits of Vascepa beyond the now well-proven trig and CV risk reduction, meaning the other effects, all anecdotal at this point but no less real even if "off label" I can't search the board as a less-than-premium member for the JL and other posts with relevant info. I don't see anything like what I want in the permanent board info.
This could help many others besides me in spreading the word to family and friends.
I have looked at EPADI but that, while excellent, seems focused on the cardiovascular benefit.
You can't divvy up a drug by indication to different licensees because any drug can be prescribed off label, so any buyer/licensee would have access to all indications. You can have a structured sale/license with additional revenues for each label indication obtained.
Thanks I will look at it
At least TD Ameritrade will offer the option of back-up withholding when you request a large IRA withdrawal. It’s not a bad idea to take the option and pay the withholding.
Hi all! I’m thinking it’s time for me to change my allocation in stocks. I don’t think I want any more speculative positions as I gradually cash out of my thoroughbreds over the next months to a couple of years. I’ll be looking for positions about which I can be much more passive while I spend more time cycling, volunteering and mentoring.
So who has favorite dividend-paying stocks to recommend? I’m going to do my own research but would be interested to know what others on this board are doing.
He has always been a shill for the shorts. As I recall he was the one who brought up the mineral oil BS before the booby-trapped Adcom.
I added yesterday at $12. I think we have a long way to go.
Thank you kindly!
I sent him the link from this board at the top:

I was hoping to find something in layman’s English for database engineers.
My brother-in-law just asked me what the patent portfolio covers. Does anyone know if there is a brief summary of our IP protection that I could forward to him?
Clearly one of the pleiotropic effects is this “”and he told 2 people and they each told 2 people.”
I would get permission before leaving product information in the waiting area because you don’t want to piss off the medical staff.
I told you before: terretmoney on IHub and zombietom3 everywhere else. Both aliases are very old and are the only two I have ever used
I tried to register as James Murphy here but was too late.
And James Murphy as well, right?
James,I think you have a reading disorder. I have always been long here including before the disastrous Adcom. I don’t know how you decided I was negative on EPA or Amarin or this board. Perhaps you have me confused with some other poster handle starts with W. Whenever I posted here a long time ago or not, I don’t remember, but I have certainly been registered on Ihub and followed this board for many many years.
JL, I have never called you ignorant so I’m not that guy you were talking about. I like most on this board look forward to your posts and I’ve learned much about the science behind EPA from you. But de-risking is the way I trade based on my own experience. Following that discipline I de-risked my trading positions here last Friday. Yes, I could be looking at a higher portfolio value today if I had held those positions, but what if, what if the unthinkable had happenned and the trial had underperformed. At that point I would be saying why didn’t I follow my discipline. The risk I did take was holding my core long position which I still hold and have no intention of selling at this point. I use options to trade around my core position and sometimes to hedge, but those are always trading positions and I am likely to follow my discipline with them. This lets me take money off the table without reducing my core position.
You don’t know me.
No one ever went broke taking a profit. It’s always wise to take enough off the table to cover your basis. I remember the ELAN millionaires who went bankrupt. I was not in that group and made a profit in ELAN.
What did it say, Commissioner?
jk - I know you will reveal it when you think it's time.
My email was time stamped 1:33 am PDT, so I doubt that his Sunday eve email was sent out at the same time as mine. Hmmm, are there tiers for email recipients?
I think JT tranq'd himself before the interview and it was very effective. No stammering like on the call this morning. The adrenalin jitters were calmed. He was absolutely great on the interview.
A quote from this same doctor earlier today was to the effect that he had expected the trial to fail and was willing to eat his shoe now (translation: boy was I wrong).
You can buy some of my long calls, for 20x what I paid for them.
I will be covering my January short puts for .05 or less.
Once again the short shill deliberately associates Vascepa with fish oil and omega-3 FA's, softening the impact of his comment.

Woo Woo!!
Yes, I’ve become more bullish or bearish. Thanks for asking.
No one should get excited if there is no PR tomorrow morning. It could easily come later in the week or even (ugh) next weekend and still be within September as guided.
I suspect that if the results are not announced tomorrow morning that everyone involved will be burning the midnight oil to make sure they can keep to their guidance.
“We all know ...”
I didn’t know that.
Granted there will be correlation between primary and secondary endpoints wrt their RRR's, but I was talking about achieving stat sig in the secondaries, and that requires as many events as possible if the results are trending toward stat sig. I think you are ignoring this aspect, but it is the driving reason why a stop at the second IA was extremely unlikely regardless of a superior primary endpoint RRR.
The company made it very clear that the primary endpoint alone was not going to determiine a stop at the interim analysis. They were looking for robust secondary endpoints and there is no way thatt if they were trending toward stat sig the study would be stopped. Getting stat sig on secondary endpoints means a multiple of value over terminating the study before you get there.
Was just checking your pulse
