duke@ Thanks - great to know that people like this still exist. A bit funny that he is actually born in Ukraine - and orthodoxic Jude.
Under here another interview with him - and just for you to see beginning. I love the way he responds to 'why his parents as Jude's had to flee Ukraine' in the beginning.
About 2 minutes in - this guy has humor as well :)
Lemm@ Super talented guy - Thanks for that :)
He plays a 12 string here - yes ?
Lemm@ Did you see the video below with Dr. Zelenko. To me this is a story that holds the most truth and hope I've met anywhere in this bad year of 2020
Just to hear the story of what this guy has been through in his personal fight with decease is breathtaking. And still he keeps this boyish smile and positive attitude to life.
For me this is a true HERO - as big as they come. I know about the controversy of HCQ for anyone involved in Med business in US - so you don't have to respond.
But do yourself a favor and listen to this guy. He has 8 children - and still a racer sharp mind despite what he's been through in his health.
capt@ Thanks - As a lay person in Bio (and not being here that long) I'm running blind sometimes - sorry for that :)
rose@ Truth is that we're probably on thin ice - regarding the En Banc hope - and I sure don't like this option business (does indicate some insider knowledge/moves). But we just have to hope for the best :)
cir@ Thank for informing - I' wasn't aware of that. Does that mean that JT is not involved at all in these presentations ?
--------
Nice picture I found though :)
rose@ Seems to be this announcement:
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/unusual-options-activity-insight-amarin-141938736.html
Doesn't look to good for our En Banc hopes !
postes@ Second that - fingers crossed :)
capt@ Your mail is talking complete logic here - to an extent that makes you question what actually goes on in the halls of FDA.
Why this fact is Not already 100% implemented simply beats al kind of logic and responsibility of FDA - to the population of US.
------------
The article were from December 19, 2018. And it does indicate 'just about total confusion on the subject at FDA (as I recall the FDA order to Teva 'to include an Updated Label' (just as insane) - happened in 2016.
postes@ What we learned in school on the 3 dimensions of Democracy:
1. We have politicians to make the laws.
2. Law enforcement/Police to enforce the laws.
3. Th Judiciary systems to take care of criminals and disputes in the laws.
--------------------------------
Today we have.
1. Politicians make the laws - and rule Judiciary systems.
2. Law enforcement's - fighting to keep politics 'out of their efforts to keep society safe and non-racist'.

HK - rose@ What do possibly put some gravel in the machinery is in post from yesterday - even it sounds FDA 'favoring generics big time':
cmm@ Encouraging and very informative post as usual - Thanks a lot :)
Lemm@ Not being a criminal - I newer expected my future (buying into a very promising small bio company) would end up being decided in USA by a group of old men and woman in black clothes.
But IT IS'
Always loved 'Power of Love' with Jennifer Rush - but our faith is being decided by the 'Power of Injustice' - for now.
louie@ Thanks - even Denmark is a small country we actually have 7.500 km coast and inlet lines - so here is a lot of beaches and beach houses - that especially Germans and Norwegians rents a lot for holidays :)
But it is not Florida - a couple of reasonably warm summer months - cold winters.
postes@ Thanks - I'll remember that when we are past $50 :)
Louie@ Not member - but Thanks - and yes we all should have spread investments more for sure.
But now that we have ended up here I too - as Rose says also - is going to see this through - for better of worse :)
I already have a small beach house - where I'm actually sitting right now at the North Sea coast in Denmark. The dream is to build a new house here and move here full time.

It all hangs on JT and Amarin - so please get moving friends :)
Jasbg
louie@ I know a number of you guys have been here forever - third of your life - so yes I am junior in that sense for sure.
Problem in that' is that I'm in around 12.000 shares avg. around $13- 14 - so my butt has been hit a lot harder than yours :)
Let hope the future for Amarin will be brighter than past 2 years - would seem not that difficult to achieve.
Jasbg
retina@ 4,7 in premarket - this moment. It is confusing/stressing to be AMRN shareholder - and actually have been ever since RI September 2018.
----------------------
So many things all the way had seemed positive - for Amarin - and yet the SP have been killed - by this fault by US justice system.
----------------------
Latest the fantastic Evaporate results - completely drowned in Appeal loss.
Right now what would solve almost everything Once and for all - would be the patents restored - at an En Banc hearing.
Given the amount of 'bad luck' for Amarin and shareholder so far - I'll allow myself to hope for that the next 12 days :)
Who can beat Singer and Marjac - but hearing has to be granted. If that happens SP will explode for sure.
Jasbg
joma@ The close the door on the market in US they built since 2012 - it's not without consequences.
postes@ Even it hurts - I have to admit you have a number of strong points here. Like your $40- 50, that is music for sure.
You deserve to go have a nap :)
Later
Jasbg
double post. Mods please delete.
ratna@ Are you a law person - Lawyer something like that - just curious here ?
I'm personally as 'Lay' as they come in Law :)
rose@ Where I live in Liberal media (these days - that all we have - in super red Denmark) - there are outrage over confusing info from WH yesterday about Postus condition.
------------------------
I have just watched some of the latest from Fox - and from what is told - we could have past day 5 - 6 of infection - the lung function gets affected. It would be typical for a male figure like the president to - be 'late' in accepting 'something is wrong here'
We just have to hope for the best - but there is oppositely directed information in the info from WH - which does raise concern.
https://video.foxnews.com/v/6197355056001
ratna@ It's complicated. Not only is it complicated - it is USA Law Systems - which is 'Hell On Earth' for small companies like Amarin.
exwan@ This is probarbly the most debated subject in the time I have been on this board.
"Why did JT and Amarin - not settle with HKR - to avoid coinflip in Law case" (as many called it. BB - postes - and others).
And in Hindsigt just about 'any deal' would have been better than Judge Du invalidating the 6 patents - but that's HINDSIGHT.
-----------------
Most people I know would be millionaires (at least) making decisions in Hindsight :)
Jasbg
postes@ Another of these endless IF - IF - IF debates.
As I understand it - JT told person posting on this board - that the chance to settle 'at any reasonable timetable' were never there'.
You tell me - why I should not believe him on this. He eelier had settled with Teva - and later did with Apotex - but obviously couldn't with Hikma and Dr. Reddy.
And from there it would be easy 'to talk conspiracy' (generic backdoors to the liberal judge etc.) - why HKR did not want to settle ?
------------------
In the end it is a matter of personal Trust for every investor. Do you believe JT working to do what is best for Amarin or not.
------------------------
You can always argue for a new and better CEO - in bad times - or BO to 'clean up' the store. As I recall eg. JL had a number of stories (before marts ruling) - about promising drugs - that were in a BO - and from there 'simply disappeared in the market'.
So even BO from BP - things could land a completely different place than expected. In case of Vascepa - stepping the toes of the Worlds most lucrative Bio Business ever 'STATINS' - could have something to do with this company being 'haunted' as I've seen among others, Louie' express it.
That is in fact what Adam Feuerstein has been saying. When you as Amarin and Vascepa - is pushing Statin billions' and billions' earnings of Big Pharma - wouldn't you expect 'Opposition' (FDA delays - claiming I/R study - law cases - possible marketing manipulation etc.)
Jasbg
ratna@ Thanks for extensive answer here.
You are on to a number of details I know to little about to make any meaningful response.
What I do remember to have read about JT selling shares - is' that he has to pay taxes' - which is one reason. And being 'not a teenager' - did he buy a nice car and a beach house - I for one could easily understand that :)
---------------
I guess my main point is - that we are 'talking people here' - and I for one hate Sweet Talking Sales Machines - so also on that point - I much prefer types like John Thero (not overselling everything).
--------------
Newer ending subject on this board - searching for 'reasons/escapes' for avoiding personal responsibilities when investing in Bio-stocks :)
Jasbg
postes - cbb - rose@ I'm up and down - on the question of the enormous focus many here have on the influence - guilt - John Thero has on the downfall of Share Price of AMRN stock.
And I have been buying into the logic of cbb 'and a fast BO' - in the prior weeks - just for 'things to get moving' (I'm not usually a patient person).
-------------------------
But something is not adding up here - in valuating JT. Many seem to completely have forgot that he 'by other CEO's were given several prizes for best leadership/management only 2 years back.
How can the same man - be the hero in 2018 - and now the cause of everything bad for Amarin in 2020 ?
-------------------
Truth is - that were it not for the 'totally unexpected Nevada ruling' - the SP of AMRN would today be between $30 - and 50 - and critic of John Thero would have been close to nonexciting.
Jasbg
mrmain@ Not the right time to 'go in press' triumphing on the loss of another Bio company.
If this truly benefits Amarin - it should appear in 'a better chance for' En Blanc - and/or law business further down the road :)
Lrich@ Your post here is 100% spekulation and personal hatred for CEO of a company you obviously - lost money on - nothing more.
vtem@ And peace to you too :)
Truth is I don't know neither JT or the inner circles of Amarin and BOD well enough to be the judge of who should be fired. Did you ever consider that you could end up with a hostile CEO just sucking values out of Amarin.
As I have said elsewhere the Form 4 bonuses 2020 - were a violent slap in the face of investors. Should newer have happened. Besides that I could not say how management of the company functions.
raist@ But you do admit playing with Calls - Puts is Pure Gambling - no differint from playing the horses or on football.
Point here - is has nothing to do whatever on how Amarin - or any other company is run - Its Gambling !
You cant blame other than yourself for loosing money that way.
rose@ Here a very persuasive introduction to Regeneron you mentioned yesterday:
https://video.foxnews.com/v/6197143901001
vtem@ It is not as if Amarin wanted to be in this situation - a bit to easy to just blame everyone else for 'your risk' taking not paying off.
raist@ Is pressuring marjac - at a time where he is working on trying to help 'all AMRN shareholders'.
Even it might 'be a long shot' that is what marjac is doing - while 'Others Here' - just concerned about themselves and 'blaming everyone else' - for their bad decisions in investment (and Betting).
raist@ Back to hating the whole world - because 'Your Calls after Appeal failed'.
How many layers of Betting would you put on top of each other - and then still blame CEO at the bottom ?
You need to take a good look in the mirror - before blaming everyone else for your misfortunes !
cardio@ Thanks for link. I'm not in any way trying to diminish importance of Vascepa for CDV populations (and high trig problems).
All I was trying to point out is that 'we and Amarin are underdogs' here.
-----------------
Hikma and Dr. Reddy are much bigger companies - who quite certainly has a big number of lobbyists on their playlist in the US.
ANDA fight's - as the one against Amarin - is daily routine for their highly trained and paid bloodhound lawyers.
--------------------------
I'm 100% on Amarin's side here - just trying to put in perspective 'why this from the start' has been a much more difficult war to win - that many amateurs like me - 'not understanding the genetic Bio-Game in the USA' - expected.
lizzy@ You are referring to this:
