The simple things in life are often the best.
The simple pleasure of freshly painted hard wood supporting the human frame is hard to top.
Posturepedics, we don’t need no stinking posturepedics!
See, artificial intelligence again at work enhancing our lives
PM, Thanks for reminding me to include a new park bench in the backyard of the new retirement home in Georgia, or better yet in the covered elevated patio, since the coyote and bear and other wildlife wouldn’t get too close!
Then again I might downsize from a park bench to a hammock
Of course my friend!
If this was instagram instead of only words you would have seen that my tongue was firmly in my cheek.
We are blessed in many ways more important than money can buy, however I assure you I would not take a million $ return for granted!
Me too!!!
It’s very true a million doesn’t go as far as it used to, however we’ll just have to grin and bear it
We may be Monday morning millionaires
I like big booths and I don’t know why…
Wow Lykiri, that’s DD excellence which raises the bar to a new level!
Thanks and congratulations!!
Looking at the ASCO program, there are immunotherapy sessions on Saturday June 4th, including one on bringing immunotherapy to the curative environment and trials.
Thanks for the color re past sessions turnout and importantly that Dr B’s presentation is early in ASCO schedule and not when the conference is wrapping up!
You’ve assuaged the concerns that we’ve seen this type of movie before, and elevated our hopes for a happy ending (Scottie, not that king of happy ending . )
Again, the usual setup as previous years and not optimum to my thinking.
Are all the abstracts out and dcvax not listed?
I guess it’s also possible that TLD and Peer reviewed paper be published prior or concurrent during ASCO, and the theatre slot would garner more interest than in the past.
I’m a longtime long but we’ve seen nwbo do this same sort of non sanctioned event in the same theatre previously.
However this is the first time this late past phase 3 datalock of what we believe could be a game changer trial in oncology!!!
Now, it’s also possible other fantastic information may be shared, however to counter the letdown of still unknown TLD or a worse outcome, the new potentially fantastic information would have to be extremely promising imo.
Many of us are past the promising carrot at this point and are craving and demanding the meat!
Nwbo has done this before multiple times, but not almost 1.75 years into datalock and everyone anxiously waiting for TLD!
Is it a keynote presentation or just an informational presentation this time?
Nwbo has used the Industry Expert Theatre in the past to present what they’ve wanted to without the submission/acceptance of papers/presentations process to present ASCO “sanctioned” presentations.
Would you think nwbo would be setting themselves up for a major letdown in front of the very audience that they need to enlist to recommend and apply dcvax treatments?
As we’re remInded daily a lot of time has elapsed since datalock already and therefore it isn’t just another ASCO expectation-wise!
Finally, we agree, except you left out the possibility of a trading halt before the market close, which admittedly is a very low probability event.
Thanks for going out on a limb with your prognostications!
I know next to nothing, however that doesn’t stop me from guessing it could be combination of MM/shorts walking sp down once the big buying was done, and maybe some small profit taking by some who bought 5-10 cents lower.
Take that and about $7 to Starbucks for a latte
Is this the running of the bulls, or what?
Not Dickens, Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms, or was it A Bell for Adano?
It’s been a very long time, even makes phase3 trial short in comparison!
For sure!!!
Nahhhh, we could just do that cut to a paper calendar, peeling off the years and months in no time at all
Then we can do that bit that flashes the words “10 years later” and do a very wide angle shot of thousands of people who are above ground and living with the help of dcvax!
One thing I learned later in life is to aim and dream bigger because achieving them is often determined by what you aspire to.
That’s what makes a market!
While I enjoyed your posts and humor more when we were on the same side of the bet, I won’t attack your recent negative views and read them carefully for information that might change my feelings about the risk/reward.
You’re entitled to your opinion and to change as you see things.
We’re still Jersey buds as far as I’m concerned!
Remember Saturday Night Live when they used to joke “Are you from Jersey? I’m from Jersey, hahahaha “
I forgot to agree with your point about selling some in stages.
I would sell some in stages to de risk and shore up personal finances since I’m retired, however I would keep a large portion to reap the long term hopefully generational appreciation if the company and product fundamentals support it.
I’ve had ten baggers but no 25-100 baggers, so nwbo would be a once in a lifetime investment if it delivers on the promise of a game changing treatment for terrible diseases, and that would be the best return on investment much more than financially!
I certainly wouldn’t consider $34 per share to be a terrible fate, quite the contrary. It would be my best return ever by far.
The overreaction I referred to is violent price action that might drive the share price from $1 to $30-$50 in 1-3 days, and the reality that it would be some time before a valuation of over $30billion is well supported, unless a big buyout materializes. For one thing, an approval would be a strong catalyst.
So if dcvax is efficacious as we longs believe, Nwbo/dcvax would very likely get to $30+, and ultimately $60, $100, and beyond if not taken out by another player on the way. That’s all my opinion and isn’t investment advice and I have been wrong before and right as we all have as investors.
I beg to differ, in that digging below the surface, nwbo appears to be among the most knowledgeable in the field of autologous tumor lysate dendritic cell vaccines applied to GBM, and with the treasure trove of data collected from the phase3 and other trials, and their relationship with ucla, I believe they know the science as well or better than any organization in the world.
Yes, ten years would be a reasonable expectation however well worth the wealth creation if it comes to pass.
Heck, if I can spend over 12/13 years of share price going from low single digits to over $12 to $0.14 to $2+ to $0.68 currently, it should be a lot easier watching the sp go to $5-$10 initially and then onward towards $100+ over the next 10 years, God willing!
Completely agree she’s doing the most fulfilling and beneficial work for her skills, intelligence and compassion!
I may have misunderstood your question as what I think instead of what nwbo management would consider big enough?
I think nwbo management would have to seriously consider a $34 BO offer given where the share price is, management’s ages and positions in life, and ability to scale and market the dcvax platform to full potential. However, I believe LP would not agree to a BO unless dcvax would be in good hands with strong reasons to not mishandle the technology and opportunities going forward. Too many years of concerted effort has been invested in this mission to advance cancer treatment and patient quality of life, to achieve such a breakthrough and let it get into the wrong hands.
Good point regarding harmony and balance!
$34 per share is a lot better than we’re at now, and I wouldn’t blame anyone to cash out some shares even at a third or more of that price, or even cash out completely if that provides peace of mind.
In my opinion if dcvax results look shockingly good and there is good press that whips up a feeding frenzy, there could be a short term overreaction shooting the share price to $34 or a bit more. This has happened with other stock, rising irrationally for a day or three before sanity is restored
However, if dcvax is successful as a platform technology for a number of different malignancies, the long term potential can be over $100 billion to multiples of hundreds of billions.
At today’s number of shares outstanding (let’s say a billion shares) that market cap would put the share price in the $100 - $500 per share range or maybe higher longer term. This would put nwbo in the class of biggest pharma like a Merck or larger, and years down the road if ever.
Hang in there! Our time to be vindicated is coming, imho!
I committed to holding for the duration many years ago and will not be shaken out now for sure when we are waiting on TLD!
Even if the sp surges, I might sell a small portion of shares to shore up finances, and hold the rest for the generational wealth that may well be created!
A couple of times, management of companies sold us out cheap by agreeing to be bought out at a low share price instead of holding out for true value. I don’t see LP doing that and I believe LP won’t put a successful DCVax platform into risky hands that won’t develop the platform.
Go big or go home!
Hopefully we are truly close now! Thought we were there at least a couple or three times before.
I was fully convinced we were getting TLD by the SNO conference when LL was to deliver a presentation, and she canceled.
Stopped guessing after that and just biding my time until it’s finally announced.
Takes a lot of conviction and patience to wait with a large number of shares, especially as many as you’re holding.
Maybe tomorrow morning is it. One of these mornings will be!
We might be able to come to a workable arrangement, especially if you can help me re-learn golf, having not played for 40 years. I’m building on a golf course lot.
Hope I don’t wind up trying to rid the place of gophers like Bill Murray in Caddyshack!
Your wife sounds like she could be my wife’s long lost sister!
I feel your pain, also being reminded that I didn’t listen to her to sell when the sp shot up to over $2 the last time.
Also, I recently (last summer) sold our beautiful two story townhouse condo in South Florida because carrying costs became too high, which she didn’t want to give up. Now about 9 months later it’s worth 20% more and shooting higher each month with the craziness in Florida real estate.
So, you’re getting it for not selling nwbo to buy the beautiful townhouse, and I’m getting it for selling the beautiful townhouse instead of my nwbo shares!
I’m about to start building my dream home in Georgia ( we’re upsizing instead of downsizing in retirement) and the estimated cost keeps going up, so it would be quite timely if our nwbo investment comes in soon.
I don’t want to think about how much daily ridiculing and I told you so torture would result if nwbo is a bust!!!
Suffice it to say, Ohhhh, the humanity
All kidding aside it’s obviously much more important for all of us that dcvax succeeds in the battle against the scourge of cancer! We’ve all watched our love ones suffer and lost them too soon!
Spoken like a true Gordon Gecko!
The American Greed story could be the cabal of shorts, market makers, and the assorted payed to play characters!
It could end with AF schooling students of yellow journalism, prompting them one by one to “denigrate this pen!”
Yes, I tend to agree with your thoughts regarding LL not playing herself, and your alternative casting!
My wife hasn’t started denying that she knows me, however she regularly ridicules me as the guy who still thinks nwbo stock will rise, and who believes that they’ll finally unearth the treasure at Oak Island.
I have to admit, I’ve been watching the Curse of Oak Island for years and having just watched this week’s episode, it does feel more and more like the nwbo/dcvax journey!!!
Both journeys include years of unearthing breadcrumb clues and applying science and logic to reinforce what we believe and hope to be successful conclusions ultimately.
And both continue to provide enough “carrots” just what we are convinced to be a few steps ahead of us, such that we keep plodding along. Hmmm jackass comes to mind
Yet, call me what you may, I do still believe dcvax is efficacious enough to result in a new SOC and more, and that Rick and Marty will find some kind of treasure at Oak Island!
Would be nice to get some more Bobby dazzlers along the way!
Yes, Giamatti is one of my favorites and if anyone can reach deep and dark to play AF, he can!
The cast is coming together well and worthy of a blockbuster!!
