Someone is suggesting you got bad advice? IMO you're more than capable of making your own decisions with regards to your investment strategy. As for me; I'm long, speak only for myself, and will be holding for the duration. Aloha.
Aloha Hypi: All you have to do is hold if you can afford to do so. I'm invested for the next 5 years. Today's Sanofi discussion is just 1 day in the long road to profitability.
Ha! Now you're in the know King! Go MNKD & Aloha.
Aloha Martin: Welcome back! If you can, please keep us posted on how your Dad does on Afrezza. Mahalo.
Good post from another board. BBQ sauce anyone?
Most terrible nightmare for shorts: have 100% gain and see it daily melting to 80%, 70%, 60%... without possibility to realize it.
Any attempt rapidly cover 15-20% of SI (20-30M shares) will induce pps spike to $7-8 and erase all current virtual gain for shorts. They only can cover 2M for a couple of weeks i.e. 200k per 1 trading day. With current daily volume 5M shares it's just leas than 5% of daily volume.
Any future positive events like TD adv, EMA approval, approval in Israel, China, India, Japan will burn shorts to ash with -30-50% losses (if pps jump to $12-15 range).
So, what they gonna do? There 2 ways: 1) start to cover now and got nothing i.e. no gain no losses; 2) wait 3-6 months and got 30-50% losses.
Aloha Crew: Nice pop at end of the trading day. I like!
Well stated Robert. I like your line of thinking. Enjoy your time in Florida! Aloha.
Aloha Robert: I much appreciate your insight. Each time I think that I'm getting a handle on the ways of the Market, I learn something new! I'd love to see some SP movement upwards this week, but okay if we keep things "steady as she goes" for awhile longer too.
Looking forward to seeing the Grand Alliance come alive. (IMHO): Mannkind/Afrezza/Sanofi/Google!
Our lovely, tropical Fall weather is finally here. It's cooled off and the humidity is finally down. Very nice!
Mahalo Jack. Guess we'll see what transpires tomorrow, if anything. Aloha.
I just don't get all the hoopla surrounding MNKD opening on the TASE tomorrow. I just don't see how this will make much of an upward impact on SP as some are heralding. Anyone out there have anything, I'm missing on this? Mahalo.
Excellent post Hypi. Makes good sense, but SNY won't throw us Long investors a bone until they are good and ready. Aloha.
Aloha Hypi: I like it all! Mahalo. Sleep well.
Delighted to hear that you're enjoying time here in the Islands, King. Go MNKD. Aloha.
Take a gander at what Kevinmik has posted over at another board. I had no idea on these patents and this bodes well for MNKD future IMO. Mahalo Kevin!

I'll take that 10% Hypi and hope you are correct! Aloha.
Mahalo Clay. I fixed my computer glitch out here. I wanted to mention that the past 3 or 4 trading days, there's been a selloff, (over 1M shares today alone!), right before the closing bell, to bring the SP down. I'm not sure any chart can predict stock manipulation, but that is certainly what we've witnessed all week long here! Where the heck is the vaunted SEC? Oh wait I forgot, GS owns them!
Your link is not working Clay.
Well, IMO there's a conspiracy to crush MNKD before Afrezza can catch on. BP/GS/Piper/Cramer/The Street/SA/AF and others are all in on it. Just look at today's SP action just before the closing bell, and this happened all week long!!
They all fear Afrezza like no other drug in recent history. Aloha.
New hit piece just out on SA, trash talking the weekly script count. Usually this Short, (I don't believe for a second his claims of no position), waits till next week to publish his trash, but he had to get it out today cuz he is so excited to see to see a slight pull back, and goes all out to spread FUD in his article. Here it is if you care to read it. Such trash! http://seekingalpha.com/article/3599246-mannkind-mnkd-weekly-data-updates-10-16-15-data?auth_param=9br4d:1b2l4qm:44c2504813cecc2519e2ad1389da1a00&uprof=51
Aloha Crew: So we ride all day long at 7 - 8% up, then in the last minutes, GS pushes it back down. They should be prosecuted for their blatant criminal behavior. Where is the SEC?!@!!
I'm happy, but don't get it why MNKD is up 7% based on the Israeli news. It just does not seem like that big a deal to me, but will take it!
Not only AF, but GS/PJ/Cramer/BP all have a stake they are trying to drive thru the heart of Afrezza. They are petrified of the potential future success of this miracle insulin and are all, (IMO), involved in shorting this stock.
I won't declare victory here until we are safely past $7. It's a long road back Crew. Aloha.
Here's hoping to no "take-down." at 3:30ish today. The dark forces are by no means spent, and they still have it in for MNKD. Aloha.
Nice! Does anyone out there know the script count for today? I don't need numbers, just want to know if it went up, even if a little. Mahalo.
Ps. I don't think the Israeli announcement is the catalyst for today. Maybe the script count, which would have more long term meaning IMO.
I just woke up, making some fresh Kona coffee, and will check it out soon. You got me going here King! Aloha.
Investor Place putting out a trash attack on MNKD. Maybe they should learn to use proper English before publishing. http://investorplace.com/2015/10/biotech-stocks-3/#.VilWG2D46GE
Here's the article:
Mannkind (MNKD) is among major development-stage biotech stocks focused on diabetes therapies. On Oct. 20, it jumped up to its 50-day average (red line), then pulled all the way back to flat. That’s very negative action, particularly for a stock that is already way down on its luck. Let’s see if we can help run salt in the wound.
To play this, buy the MNKD Nov. 20th $3.50 puts (MNKD 151120P00003500) at $0.58 or less. When filled, set up to sell your position at the final target of $0.80 limit, good till canceled. Set a stop at $0.40, good after 10 a.m. ET only.
It's simply amazing isn't it? I'm hoping for an increase in script count tomorrow. Even a little is progress, and that's what will ultimately be the shorts undoing. Little by little, we will get them! Aloha.
I think it will be 3 days in row. Watch what happens today in the last hour of trading or less. Obvious manipulation. We retail investors have no rights. Aloha.
I think reports are showing the script count has been inching up lately, Conix. Let's see how we do with that during the 4th quarter. We all could be pleasantly surprised. Time will tell. Aloha.
New, positive, CNA article out today on MNKD. http://cnafinance.com/mannkind-corporation-mnkd-is-now-the-time-to-buy/7070
It's now down 40% and trading halted for a 2nd time today. You are correct Kugel. The attack was based on misinformation. Incredible. What's to stop that from happening here? I put nothing past the dark forces aligned to try and destroy the Grand Alliance of: MNKD/Afrezza/Sanofi/Google. Aloha.
It's a long road back to be sure. To help pass the time, here's an interesting article related to the Google entry into the health field. Diabetes is mentioned. And Mahalo for attempting to restore Hypi's posting privileges. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-biomedical-superstars-are-signing-on-with-google/
Amazing. How do you like them pineapples? Not surprised at all. Aloha.
Funny, and I'm making some fresh squeezed OJ right now! Go MNKD. Aloha.
Aloha King: I'm looking! Go MNKD!
Aloha Robert: Just getting going here, making coffee. I have not seen this article, but quite the find! I now wish I'd had Afrezza when diagnosed T2, 15 years ago. That would've been nice. This is another great reason to start Afrezza early! Now, do I dare look at today's SP or wait?
Mahalo for the report Clay, and yes, I'm still here. Aloha.
Let's hope MNKD has a solid trading week in the Green. Aloha.
Even if not, still very nice to watch! Mahalo for sharing Jack.
