WSJ article on Tethered drones.

I was looking for that double bottom as well. However to get there today would have put the stock under SSR, and whoever is selling/shorting seems to be trying to avoid SSR. A double bottom + SSR + bounce players seeing the dip from yesterday probably would have had this green by close.
So your saying the whole idea of the show Shark Tank is crazy. Billionaires invest under 250k in those companies all the time.
ZTE is claiming news from UK courts. No idea how to validate.

GOOGLE + VRNG = ALLIES FOR NOW? I have to believe the Google wants VRNG to appeal and win vs. the current verdict. VRNG would cost them around 1 billion. This current verdict could cost Google 10s of billions in future profits due to the change in software patent laws.
Have you heard google gloat about this win at all? Not like them to not trash the patent troll....
I think they are as shocked as VRNG.
lol... I am long but that was a nice call. Hope you got your cover.

ARNA stuff starts on PAGE 14
Wish we would open before 9:30, but its very unlikely now. We would run higher and faster in premarket where volume is to thin for shorts to cover.
Best thing would be for the shorts to take us down %10 and then let an RR % # hit the wire. (Wishful thinking)
We would be on Short Share Sale Restriction and a buying bonaza = Cooked shorts.
Does him using the 20+% and 3.5% tip his hat for future damages?
Why 12/31? Expecting News?
The date one KKR PR stated that the commitment date was 1/31/14
Just a FYI. Just because Ameritrade doesn't have any shares available to short does not mean other brokerages do not.
Some good stuff on Belviq from Eisai's q presentation report.
Belviq stuff starts on page 11

Rumors of a BIG script # were circulating yesterday. So the under 2k was disappointing to some. I figure with the holiday next week will be around 2k again. I am hoping after that we start to see # improvements.
I sold my July 9 Calls this morning. Don't think they are worth holding now. Will be probably be buying more August 9 calls next week after #'s release.
10am tomorrow new IMS#s?
Last week the script #s started showing up around 10am. Is there a way for the average investor to get these #'s, or do we have to wait for one of the big boys to make the call?
I bought $2.50 JULY puts to protect my long position. Even if VRNG goes to 0 the most I can now lose is .50 a share.
However, the danger is if GOOGLE and JJ continue to drag this out I can end up with worthless options. (Like my June puts)
I also own some July $3.50 calls.
Next months options (CALLS) Volume is very high today for $9 and $10 calls. Put volume for next month is neglible for today.
Thats something no one really seems to focus on when they talk about script #'s. VVUS and there drug is made up of existing compounds that many eligible patients have probably already tried and FAILED so there would be no point in prescribing them the medication.
ARNA's new drug is just that BRAND NEW. No one outside of the test groups has ever tried the drug. For that alone ARNA's script #'s should be much bigger than VVUS.
Share Holders Meeting today. Maybe we will get some news.
They will need to put it on the quarterly and also put a value as its an asset. They might just put what they paid for it or they could assign the estimated value they believe its worth.
NOK patent value revealed next week?
From what I see VRNG is supposed to report earnings on 11/14/12? I am assuming they will have to list the value of the patents in the quarterly report.
Options next week again... Max Pain is ... $3.50.
Funny how thats about our current price no?
AOL just posted record advertising sales results.. nice timing

Binary Options? Anyone know much about these types of options? I have been getting pop ups for them on IHUB the last month. Not sure how legit they are since it seems none of the major options brokers trades them?
Buy spy weekly puts TODAY for tomorrow if you think AAPL is going to miss. If its flat or misses the market should be down down down tomorrow.
If it doesnt miss you have 2 more days to get your put $ back.
Actually it did... It got up past $33 in premarket and has pulled back over $4 today.
If the FDA official news had dropped during regular business hours yesterday I dont think VVUS would have broken $30, but using the premarket the hedgies were able to push it up $7+ with less than 3 million shares.
VVUS cannot give out samples.... If you have ever worked in a doctors office you will understand what a BIG deal this is...
The talking heads wont mention this.....
Vivus will at first offer the pill only through mail order, so doctors can't sell it directly, said Dr. Barbara Troupin, Vivus' vice president of scientific communications and risk management.
"There will not be dispensing from doctors' offices," she said. "Seeing that issue and what has happened in fad and diet drugs in the past, that is not a path that we're going to be taking."
Here is a doctor on Yahoo talking about what a pain in the ass the VVUS drug is going to be and why its a loser.

Well the drug wasnt meant to work on its *own*. That is just the way the FDA made them test it before they would consider approving the medication. I am sure there are doctors on the board who could explain the different drug combos for weight loss that will do alot better than 10 lbs.......
Yep. 4 is good. 3 would have sucked.
I think if VVUS gets denied next month, or classed under 4 we have a very good chance of a nice buyout.
I did sell 2/3 and bought Jan $20 calls with some profits.
Anyone know what Class Distiction? IV or V?
If I had listened to *Nitty* as you call him I wouldn't have made serious bank on the AGRT bounce last week.......
No one is right all the time and besides charts are irrelevant for anyone long on ARNA. The only thing that really matters is the FDA decision. Its either up big or down big. I have Friday puts and have lots of cash on the sidelines if its a no decision for the bounce play.
I however think it gets the thumbs up and makes a run to $12-15 before pulling back while waiting on the VVUS FDA decision.
Now tomorrow could be interesting. Maybe we will get another bear raid. Good trading opportunity for many.
NO. It says that has happened to other companies in the past, and is one of 4 possiblities with ARNA. No where in the article does it say that the they have evidence that the FDA is actually waiting for paperwork.
Losing weight can help your sex drive... :) Its a medical fact.
I work with alot women in my office. ALL but one is on a diet. If this is covered by thier insurance they will try it... I have no fears about how well this will sell if approved.
Yes. The class distinction makes a huge difference. I work for a LARGE medical facility, and the ARNA drug will be the biggest seller since VIAGRA *IF* approved.
I am betting its approved.
Worried about FDA rejection? Buy cheap puts to cover your ass.
I bought some $5 puts this morning, and more shares of ARNA at $10.
TPX options? Stock Down 48% Any ideas on a trade?
If he was he might retire tomorrow.
VVUS halted and approved lets hope ARNA is next.
That promo info was known as early as 3/28/12. Is SMA being compensated extra is what I would like to know.
