Right. H. Lundbeck A/S (LUN.CO) or the larger pharma that recently partnered with Lundbeck. Possibly the following conference... or something across the pond.
9/21/15 – 9/22/15, International Conf.On Epilepsy and Treatment, Baltimore, USA
Very nice CBD! Any special occasion, or just wanting more love in the world in general?
I don't think Missling said anything about wanting to get involved with a potential "ten bagger". Maybe somebody was thinking of a post or something. Unless I see the quote somewhere, I am going to write that off as somebody remembering that wrong. It happens.
But a finer point on what Missling has said about getting listed. The last time I saw him asked about uplisting he said, "It looks like that will happen". I made note of his wording because to me it indicated that he was not planning on doing a reverse split to get there.
This was during the rapid rise in SP, however, so it was likely as much a simple observation that it looked like we would meet the criteria soon.
I have to pass on seducing any Australian nurses. My shoulder went to hell late last year, and so I had to stop working out. Hope to start again in a couple of weeks... but it will be a while before my self confidence comes back. Couple of big (to me) winter waves... and I'm back. My shoulder is still bad, but it is different. Hoping it is adhesions or calcium spurs or something other than the apparent... arthritis.
If it got people on yahoo excited, then the conference did something already. Between that and the Seeking Alpha article, it should at least help us tread water if not generate a little bump.
Whether we are treading water to December or to some big news next week... I don't know, but treading water is good... I know that.
You have to have watched a real rodeo to appreciate that commercial. That rider is in big trouble, and not just because the advise is dubious!
Sun Tzu: The Art of War; “Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”
Not sure it applies here, at this particular time, but maybe. I suppose by staying out of the US as a central operating point Missling does stepside or delay some of the war games that BP might play early in this effort.

The SA articles don't have the impact that they used to have when they were published as news on Yahoo Finance. On the other hand, the recent lifts from articles in various publications have all had a 2 or 3 day delay. So there could still be a lift from the very positive SA article. Same would go for a conference that was not PR'd, such as the one this weekend. Though not clear if Dr. Maurice will be mentioning Anavex specifically in the talk. Still, people will ask him if he doesn't include that in his scientific presentation.
So, you want the 17 cent era to fade into the background. Makes sense to me.
US markets went overboard yesterday, as usual. So of course selling off some today to make up for that. Who knows how they will end the day.
Apparently lots of very positive US Economic data yesterday... but is that good or bad? Maybe that will influence the Fed to raise rates (by a tiny bit) in September, as they have said they are going to do for a very long time now. Oh my God. The sky is falling. Sell Sell Sell! No no! Buy Buy Buy!!! no... that's not it...
I don't think many are counting on it soaring any time soon. Not unless there is further data released near term. Many were expecting that, but lately most have relaxed into the belief that more data may not come until December. Though there could be a surprise. And there are other indications to report on. And... there are further details from the previous data about the first cohort (12) in Alzheimer's that could be released in upcoming conferences, with an early October conference appearing to be the most likely.
But September has an Epilepsy conference. Not saying Anavex will be there, but I hope so. Nothing about Epilepsy lately. Would be great to hear something. TooTall knows all about the Epilepsy end of things and thinks it is a very large market and relatively straight forward clinicals. And there is some world expert on Epilepsy that has written some very positive things about Anaevex's chances in that realm.
Thanks! SA article available to everyone (you have to sign up for SA... but there is no cost) now. Very positive. Great article if you are long. Presents not just info on Anavex's drugs, but more info about the existing approved drugs, and Big Pharma, high profile drugs in trial than any other article I have read.
The article states that Anavex 2-73(plus) showed substantial improvement in cognition in the early P2A results, while Biogen's drug did not. Yet,
"Early results from Biogen in March of 2015 from its phase 1b trial in Alzheimer patients using aducanumab were successful thus boosting the company's value by $8 billion in one day."
That's $48/share if the same occured for Anavex.
The December results for Anavex 273(plus) could be far more dramatic and positive than those for Biogen's drug. At the same time, Anavex does not have the same level of visibility, nor the structure in place to easily procede through the rest of the necessary trials. So... it is not clear how those factors would balance out. However... they could be a wash.
If so, we could be seeing $48/share in December.
Your about a week early. Go away. We are on an up cycle.
You mean we've been sold for $8B!!!!!!!!!
Tootall is going to be really pissed at Missling for not holding out!
Deal! Could be misconstrued.
He had been posting four or five other stocks' charts along with AVXL. Are you sure that wasn't part of what bothered you? I bet it was. Has to be worse than posting AVXL multiple times.
I think that posting AVXL at least 2 times spread out in the day allows him to catch everyone. You are a regular and see every post, but there are probably many who just see what is visible before they leave for work or after they get home.
I don't need multiple posts because I look for his chart. I guess you could argue that anyone interested could look for his chart/posts. They are pretty easy to pick out among the posts.
There is a Seeking Alpha article to be broadcast tomorrow, right? Supposed to be very positive. Hope that is true. I do worry about motives. Take a look at the upper left corner of the first page. Funky statement about long or short. And I did not see an Author listed. Always a concern.
But I do think it will have a positive effect on SP. And then you have those upcoming talks at conferences... however indirect the talks might be. Still a series of positives that should move things along for a while. And who knows what larger (positive) surprises around the corner.
Iff the broader markets, or a wrong word from the fed doesn't send the US markets into a sudden nosedive.

I think someone was just in a bad mood (bashing Clay Trader). Also, there are chart people that use the charts to manipulate, or at least appear to do so at times. It is a perfect tool for that if you use convoluted enough explanations for predictions. So people can get irritated. Then the next chart guy to come along gets the pie in the face. Unfortunate because I don't think Clay has much interest in manipulating.
That would certainly be a plus. 100% is such a nice round number.
I hope Clay Trader comes back. Yesterday's video would have included a negative... a lower low, so he probably didn't want to risk pissing someone off with that reality. But today probably looks a little better.
Not sure he should be posting a bunch of other company charts though. Sometimes interesting to me, but in general such is frowned upon on ihub. Maybe just providing a list of other charts for the day and a link at the end of his AVXL presentation would be better.
But I hope he continues charting AVXL. I think it's useful info, and he carries himself very well.
Market volatility worldwide is huge. Shanghai up 5.34%. Hang Seng up 3.54%. Dax up 3.44%. S&P 500 was up 3.9% yesterday after the biggest down spike in 99 years or something the day before... or was it 2 days before.
Very strange stuff. The chinese were going to make some policy change that was going to stabilize their market... but whatever they did was supposed to effect yesterday's numbers... I guess a 1 day delay is no big deal.
But I wonder if much of the upswing is due to the one Fed person talking like the rate hike would be delayed. Not sure that was even a voting member. Now today a non-voting member is saying the market volatility will probably not force a delay. What effect will that have?
Lots of things up pre-market like all is well. Europe and Asia are way up. But are they just following what happened in the US yesterday, or was there a fundamental move by China that is credible?
I am very confused.
I tried my hand at peek-a-boo garbage flipping last week. All I can say is be sure to use a shovel and not a pitch fork.
I went in for a runup to results after only checking the cash, debt, and cash flow, over at AEZS. Out of nowhere I ran into a steaming pile of radioactive Limburger cat crap... and I think the cat was sick.
Didn't work out for me.
And don't shovel over your shoulder.
WWayne, thank you for the beer! Heads-up move! Always the hero!
But I thought Waynes World was in Washington state... or somewhere in the Northwest. And I pictured you a little huskier.
Maokin. You write perfect English. I am sure Bud would agree.
Maybe a late trade posting even later... but 28 minutes after close is a long time.

The point was that the MJFF grant would have been a surprise based on the way you formed your list.
It's certainly possible that there will be an absence of significant PR's for a while. There are many arguments for why that would be the case. However, there has been a consistent release of PR's in the past weeks, including the unexpected MJFF grant, and no real reason to count on that changing.
There could be IP updates or write-ups by larger circulation magazines or newspapers, or more grants now that there has been some attention. There could be partnerships... or even more significant events.
One could gamble that the flood of news has stopped... but that would in fact be a gamble.
The MJFF grant is not on your list of possible catalysts. Nor is any sort of update or news on any other of the many indications that their many drugs can be applied to, including Epilepsy.
Many seem to think the Shanghai composite will spike positive tomorrow, in a big way. Conscensus seems to be that there was some kind of a deliberate trap of shorts by China and tomorrow is a true short squeeze.
If so... not sure if that assures AVXL positive, but certainly a good window for a PR. US likely positive with China positive tomorrow, in spite of excess US rally today, but that does not always bode well for small-cap bio.
But probably means AVXL up tomorrow. With a PR big up... but since a minor PR today... doesn't seem super high chance of a PR tomorrow morning.
But just my guess.
WTFDIK
That article was kind of strange. All about digital company stocks, then out of nowhere they talk about AVXL. Maybe I should read it again.
Hopefully pulls more digital people into AVXL than pulls AVXL people into digital.
Thar she blows! Up over 6%!
Blake, you can always sell your shares, the question is whether you can buy shares right away with the resulting money. That depends on how long ago you bought the shares that you just sold.
When you buy stock you really don't own it for 3 or 4 days. You can sell it immediately, even though you don't own it yet because your broker covers the possibility of the sale being voided for some reason. But the broker won't let you turn around and buy stock with that money, or withdraw that money, until your original purchase clears. They don't have full control of that purchase transaction.
But doing more than 3 day trades (full lapse in a single day) in a week is a big deal. Having $25K in your account is necessary to become an official "Day Trader" but I didn't think that was sufficient. I thought you had to apply for that status, and list yourself as a day trader with the SEC.
Hang Seng closed up +.76% I think that matters more than the Shang Hai which closed down.
Taiwan Closed up +3.6%
Australia closed up +2.6%
Germany is up +4.0%
The UK is up +2.7%
So the only reason we would be down would be related to the Fed's plan to raise interest rates next month. A plan that has been known for months to years.
China markets are open. The Hang Seng (the headier market) is only down .5% and relaxing while the less meaningful, more emotional Shanghai composite opened almost 6% down, but is relaxing (moving up) fast.
As I said, I think the Hang Seng is the one that most of the world trusts as a better indicator. It is the larger cap index or something, as well as being located in Hong Kong I think. It was down multiple percentage points today/yesterday but looks like it may even go positive by the end of the day today.
And the Australian market is up/positive. That bodes well for the US. By the time the US opens the Shanghai will have settled down quite a bit... is my prediction.

Unfortunately the Chinese traders probably take a look at yesterday's DJIA before their trading starts. So I think a negative spike is inevitable today/tommorow for the Chinese markets on open, unless of course the Chinese governments bans selling stocks altogether. So, what happens later in the trading day is probably a better tell as to where the Chinese are headed.
Hopefully they will have the same attitude about that huge spike at our open today.
Nice ending to the article. Hope quoting it is legal...
"When the complete results for the Phase 2a trial are announced, potentially another chapter in Anavex's story will be told. Meeting an unmet medical need with a new drug lends itself to profit for investors, cost savings to caregivers and the healthcare system, and relief for patients."
India GDP: Depends on which chart you pull off the internet... This one agrees with my point. It shows an 11.1% projected increase in GDP for 2015 with the previous two years being flat.
That bump in GDP may have taken away from China's somehow. Maybe a lot of mfg moved to India. Did the Yuan or Renminbi strengthen in recent years relative to the Indian currency? I think it did a little bit anyway until the recent change forced by the Chinese government.
If the bump in India's GDP is the other half of this story, then certainly people are aware of this, but are choosing not to point it out. Why? Maybe because they want a big correction.
There appears to be a great deal of money sitting on the sidelines, waiting. What if they don't get their big correction, and bonds don't spike enough to become attractive? Then it is back into the stock market they must go!

China bought up tons of mineral rights as well as developed mines all around the world. They built some enormous mines from scratch. Such development takes a decade to pay off. They were probably paying off some of that expense exporting the metals. So not only were they not buying metal from the world markets, they were dumping metal into those markets. Combined, those things tanked the metals prices. That price drop would have dropped their income from those very expensive ventures...
probably a part of their existing problems. I don't know much about China and Oil other than that they buy a lot of oil. Or they used to anyway.
I look at that World Markets link every morning before the open. That was pretty spooky this morning. The Germans, the Canadians... everybody was spooked.
My understanding is that the reduction in GDP gains for China is as much the concern as their stock market. The mfg numbers in particular. If so, I think it would make sense to look at those numbers for (India + China) and see if that is as disturbing. If the net is just a shift toward India, then why should the world freak? Feel bad for China, but why freak? That is... if that sum shows a nicer chart.
"Missling has an uncanny ability to time his PR's right to boost the stock price just when the stock needs it."
I think it was Raja that said earlier today that he was glad there was no PR today because it would have been wasted. I had been thinking the same thing.
I complained to my broker once about not being able to buy shares when I was under the ask. (I probably imagined it, but at any rate...). My broker replied, "They don't have to buy your shares.". That kind of scared me.
Or is it the other way around? One explanation I heard was that they have an enormous number of novice traders, just like the US in 2000.
