As Eli Lilly states in its AZD page..The causes and cures of AZD are not known at the present time..I think this is an accurate statement..I think the FDA approval of the Biogen drug is a farce...I don't wish to pee in the punchbowl but the idea of a drug with an estimated annual cost per patient of $56K and no proven efficacy should be investigated...
AZD is a degenerative disease...a disease of aging..most of these disorders are related to inflammation..AZD has ties to CVD which is another manifestation of chronic inflammation..As we know there is a hereditary overlap in all these diseases in terms of their age of onset..Which is also effected by lifestyle factors,,,such as diet, stress and enviromental toxins..All factors which effect longevity...Not everyone has a basal body temperature of 98.6* F...If your resting temp is 99.6* F Then like a roast in the oven the higher the temperature the faster the roast cooks. Same thing with pulse rates...In mammals there is a law that says the faster the pulse rate the shorter the lifespan...and there are no exceptions..Just check your dog's pulse rate..
In my own case. I just turned 80...And I can tell my memory is nowhere near as good at it use to be..I go by the "Jeopardy" test..At age fifty there would be only two or three contestants a year on Jeopardy that could beat beat me...Know almost everyone who wins a contest easily trounces me..It's not that I can not dredge up the answers over a period of time in a lot of cases...It's just there is a long delay period before the answer.
Want to avoid AZD...I don't think Biogens $56 drug is going to help you and its not going to help the cost of medicine in the USA. Watch your lifestyle don't smoke and cut down on your food intake and fast acting carbs. Take Vascepa..(I don't own any shares at present..and watch Jeopardy. Exercise for the mind..

Yesterday
..I was watching Cramer and the the market after hours and mainly just watching the ticker...I like cheap shares and I saw AEMD keep floating by and it was up about 100%...I knew nothing about the company..I am a self confessed market junkie...So I decided to take a flier and bought 1000 shares...
Later I did some DD on Yahoo Fin and was not very impressed...Even though I am a retired MD...I was having trouble deciphering exactly what AEMD blood sweeper was doing...I woke up several hours ago and OMG the thing was up like Gamestop...
Whether or not this is the real McCoy remains to be seen...But for the near term I plan on holding on for awhile..We should be in for some real action as the company has less than 20 mil shares,,And that can pre stage a real lift off caused by liquidity issues..Like chasing Unicorns...
Moral...Luck trumps skill....

PS...Look at Tesla....
They have been trying to get the "Roadster" on the market for years now...Who doesn't want..one of those jet propelled 600 mile range EVs who make a Shelby Cobra look like a horse drawn Ice wagon...

At present the entire auto industry is tied up for any number of reasons and they are even having trouble getting their regular stock to the consumers. You go to a dealership and want to buy a car and they will tell
They don't have any to sell...
Used car prices are going through the roof because if you want to buy a car..Thats all that's out there..I recently went to the biggest Audi dealer in Orlando,,,They had eight R-8s but all of them were secondaries. They had none of the eRons and the new models...They wanted to take my information,,But said it would be six months plus before they got any of the new hot stuff...
The problem is there are serious problems in chip production...

Roy....
You know better than anyone that the road to therapeutic Nirvana is paved with land mines...The role of Beta amyloid in the pathogeneses of Alzheimer's Dementia has never been elucidated, and remains one of the great mysteries of clinical medicine..
There exists oblique evidence that suggest that dementia is not created by focal disruption...Multiple Sclerosis is an auto immune disease that results in focal areas of neural loss both above and below the Foramen Magnum...Although MS patients can develop cognitive issues in most cases this is not the impressive aspect of the condition like dementia is in AZ..
If Beta A was the prime cause it would have to function by creating focal disruptions (like MS does)..Most AZ cases begin with personality changes..
Interestingly...Jealousy is a frequent prodrome..
Finally AZ is a disease of aging...And those of you are are veterans of the Vascepa wars know and understand the ravages of aging are principally the effects of inflammation. I would bet AZ is no exception to the rule...Why should it be...
In would like to see a a race between Vascepa and the BIIB drug and would bet heavy money on Vascepa...
Hope all is well

Wow..Thanks for posting this presentation..And I hope you are good health..
This is technical as well as clinical information and may (will) be difficult to comprehend as it is for me and I have a strong background in both medicine (Harvard Med School) and technology (MIT)..
The crux here is Bionano's technology is not only groundbreaking...it casts a wide sweeping ground breaking effect in genome biology (and clinical medicine) which is comparable to the invention of the microscope in infectious disease and malignancies..But the Saphyr system offers much more than the microscope.
DNA is like a novel and if chapters or paragraphs are out of place the novel becomes unreadable or leads to distortions which lead to birth defects, neurological conditions, and malignancies..What the Saphyr system does is to identify these structural mistakes in the gene sequences: and offers the possibility of correcting these errors.
Bionano's technology is not some minor effect. We are talking about life changing possibilities in conditions like autism or Asperger's or gender problems...And offer a chance to treat hematological malignancies (leukemia and lymphoma and solid tumor malignancies ranging from breast cancer to brain tumors like glioblastoma which are universally fatal).
And for those of us who are interested in the financial details..Bionano prospects appear to be stellar in that aspect also..
A real winner on many levels...

Hey Clay....
Looks like we broke through the $5.74 overhead resistance.. and hopefully this will serve as a support level,,,If I understand your post..
That would be great...

This stock was over $5 for only a couple of weeks in January..So it was never there for any substantial period of time..
Sue addressed the short report..There has been no legal action. And it is not likely there will be any legal action..

Cmon kids...
We don't need this kind of bickering...
Yes it was options and not shares..Options warrants and calls all are effected by the PPS and If any of you owned them it would be in your best interest to get the PPS up as high as possible because the options would be worth more...
Stock is looking great after big move up on Friday...
Go Bingo...

Just Beemed in..
Congratulation to all of you that bought in here before I did today..EV charging stations run on solar power...I'm thinking what a great idea..(Why didn't I think of this) something a lot of other entrepreneurs are probably thinking...
I have been in the market since the late fifties..and this might be the best situation I have ever seen...Everything including the MCAP seems perfect.. This is going to be a major disrupter..as it will provide avenues for further employment for solar power while cutting down the carbon footprint...This will resonate with Elon Musk. Who recently retracted his offer to sell Teslas for Bitcoin...Not because he doubts the validity of Bitcoin...But he recognizes Bitcoin "mining" is harmful to the environment.
The option to sell Teslas for Bitcoin..counterfeits Musk's theory that Teslas are environmentally friendly..Musk must love Beem...Who knows, he might buy the company.
I see you guys are having a lot of discussions about selling your positions (shares)...I do not think that is a very good idea. This stock is one of those ones that the hucksters say that they owned it before it went up 10,000 percent...
Reminds me of the song from Beauty and the Beast. "Surely as the sun rises in the East."..

LOL..Black Monday was special,,,
I would like to thank those of you who sold me BNGO shares at less than $5.00....hopefully the price will remain above $5,00.. There is no guaranty
the PPS will remain above 5.00...but I like the odds...Next time when you see "crazy" You will remember this day...And remain brave in face of fear and be cautious in the face of certainty..
This is a very tough market because we do not have strong political leaders. It is very sad that our great nation is in such a situation.

blue...
Yeah...Stormy seas...WHO Knew the "Dark Side" was not just Palpitine and his gang but a bunch of Russian Hackers...wiping out oil transportation on the Eastern Seabord...Probably the same guys who rigged the presidential election...Where is Bruce Willis when we need him...
Craziness and market selloffs has has gone together like Fred and Ginger...many times and it usually does not last very long and then morphs into boring reality..
The best example I ever saw was "Black Monday" in Oct 1987...Talk about sell offs...Computers had just been introduced to the market,,But they were mainly used for programed trading and most all orders were your broker (you were required to have a broker in 1987) you called in your buy or sell order and then the broker called the exchange, and put your order in with the "specialist"...You got what you got..
Well on Black Monday every body decided to sell (the three previous sessions were pretty rough...The market was acting like Niagra..unbelievable volume and the orders were running about three hours behind so you called your broker at ten AM your order got executed at one in the afternoon..and the price of your stock was falling all that time..
Well on that Monday I was doing a cosmetic surgery on the wife of one of the richest men in Boston...He was "Old School and came with his wife and spent the whole day in my office..There were no cel phones...
I ask him how he did the next day and he told me he was down 40 million dollars...You would have thought it was ten dollars;
The amazing thing was he did not sell a single share and a month later he was back to even...So this is one example of the lack of sticking power of crazy selling...
To this very day there have been at least a hundred would be explanations of what happened that woe be gotten day..None of them very convincing...Just craziness I guess.
":>) JL
blue skies...
Wake up...
Its not just about BNGO...Amist fears of inflation..The price of gold (NEM) and oil (SU) is also way down...What this means is the market is going nuts...And is about as crazy as I have ever seen and I made my first market buy in 1958....
Craziness (irratiounality does not last long in the markets and right now there are real bargains if you have any dry powder..Do not panic and sell your stocks....

Looks like the shorts are getting tired...
I was a short seller for many years and I know how a lot of you are seeing what I use to call the helium effect.That is when the boyancy begins to overcome the weight of the balloon. The up drift starts, It kind of bounces around the bottom..and the reality sets in that you could not only lose your profits,,,But the very real possibiliy you could lose all your stake..
You don't want to be the last guy that's left holding the bag when the stock gaps up...Maybe Joe Biden will not be there to bail you out...

I love bargains...try not to pay retail...
Those of you who remember from the AMRN board before The Reno massacre''
I bought 80,000 shares of Amarin when it was bet down to 80 cents in the period before the REDUCE IT trial.. Nobody wanted shares and I helped them by taking them off their hands. After the R-IT trial the shares went over $20.....
I can see BNGO at way over $50 a share. Over $100,,and possibly higher. They have best technology in many ways at cheater costs...
":>) JL
I just bought more...
Hey what do I know....I'm just a grad of MIT and Harvard Med School...
I'm sure all those shorts that are giving their shares away probably know more than I do...But "what the hay" if they don't want the shares any more I will gladly take some of them off their hands. I believe in charity and helping out my fellow man...

BNGO...
Right now BHGO is trading essentially at break up value....Ie. the current PPS is pretty much de risked...So if you really do believe in the future of this stock...This would be a great time to buy...You are not likely to see an opportunity like this to come along very often...

Re The Seeking Alpha article...
At first glance this appears to be a typical SA hatchet job, but careful examination indicates the hatchet is not very sharp and BNGO's illness is more like Acne and not cancer..'
The major thrust of the SA article is that BNGO's revenues are not that impressive at present...This of course is no surprise in medicine..The oath reminds all clinicians that experiment is perilous. My professors at HMS always warned us that we should never be the first in our area to adopt new technology..
The SA article notes BNGO has counterfeited its revenues by issuing secondary's that dilute shareholders. And have sugar coated its predictions of sales of equipment. What the article down plays is that BNGO's superior technology...Put simply it's optical system can do things the gene sequencers can not...These include identifying neonatal genetic pr0blems, proclivity to cancer and even whether or not a patient will have a serious case of CV-19...
The paper also notes that BNGO has not been FDA approved for treatment but only for diagnosis. And many insurance plans will not cover treatments that lack FDA approval...Medical devices are not subject to the rigors of the FDA drug marketing process and approvals are largely based on safety issues. And as such the approval time is only a fraction of the three phases that drugs must survive..
Yes Saphyr is the new kid on the block... But make no mistake..Saphyr is better in many ways a is definitely the future...

Thursday morning 9:30 market opening...
Like clockwork..The seven dollar PPS beat down...Its easy when people understand if you can get the PPS at or below $7..Then the chance of further decline is very high...And we can thank our friend Clay for making sure everyone doesn't forget it...

Quote: "Do you really think my video can control how millions of dollars flow in/out of the stock.."
Yes I do.. Dollars don't form opinions. Its the traders who own the dollars who are the targets of your posts..They form opinions..and when you post that you have only one losing day out of many days. Then you are clearly trying to induce traders and shareholders to buy or sell based on your opinions. I am a long time market player and I am not sure how accurate your claim is that you have had only one losing day in some ridiculous amount of trading days. When I have seen many days when you turned out to be wrong..
My point is that the dollars don't vote. The dollars are more like the ballets...Only in this case. One stock holder can have a million shares or more and many millions can be controlled by a relatively few...
This is not to suggest you are evil or even concerned about whether the PPS goes up or down...The facts are when you label a PPS as a level of support and the stock breaks below it then people who believe you are likely to sell. I'm sure you understand that..Also you might consider that a hedge fund. knowing that you are forecasting a price decline if the stock goes below a certain PPS. The clever hedgies might do what ever to make sure the PPS falls below that level..And then have excellent odds of profiting from shorting the stock...
Comprend...":>) JL
Clay...
I appreciate your interest in BNGO..but am concerned when you post daily charts and technical opinions that you might not be helping some us..
When you post daily support and resistance levels you provide a road map for anyone who is committed to taking the stock down..(ie counter trade most of us this site)..
I have no proof this is actually happening, but support levels ( for example $7 seems to be an important support and resistance level and it seems there is is little or no support due to concerted efforts of those involved with this issue..

I don't own any SWAV stock but I probably should. My story with it is simply amazing..
I developed intermittent caudication in my right leg...about two hundred yards...with severe calf pain...That was bad because I was in the habit of walking about two miles a day..
I was referred to a vascular surgeon who did a standard thrombectomy. I went home the next day..I got up and was looking forward to renewing my "hiking"..all excited..I set out..about a hundred and fifty paces and the calf pain set in..(esentially no improvement)...Next day I went to the surgeons office where he explained to me..That I had essentially no run off distal to the obstruction and there was no rationale to repeat the procedure as it would not work..
I went to see a cardiologist who was the only doctor doing Shock Wave in the Orlando area...He booked me for a procedure...that was over a year ago..I have been able to renew my walking..have no problem with caudication and don't worry bout getting a BK amputation. Shock Wave is the real thing.
By the way I did see the surgeon who did the first procedure..During a brief discussion..I noted that Dr. Kasi (the cardiologist) was the only doctor qualified to do Shock Wave in the Orlando area and was corrected by the surgeon..Who had the arrogance to correct me by saying there were many others qualified to do Shock Wave..We just "Choose not to".As a retired surgeon...It's amazing how arrogant..Surgeons can be...

I do believe the reason my CV-19 was so mild is that I was taking Vascepa 4 gms/day...And still believe the virus mainly creates a pan systems hyper inflamation: and if you wipe out the systemic inflammation..Then you are left with a runny nose and a productive cough..
The inflmmation also leads to fatigue....What use to be called "sickness behavior"...

Nice to hear from you..sorry about the rotator cuff tear..got to be careful with cortizone injections around joints...My CV-19 illness was not very eventful,,I've had "colds tht would put it to shame,,,
I think the AMRN story has pretty run its course and was euthanized by the "dink" Judge...Thero left the company in a deep hole that only JT and Kennedy managed to get out of...I always liked Jackson Browns Roadies song..

Peace and good luck with your procedure..

How can we miss you when you won't go away?...
I am convinced you under stand the nuances of technical supports and resistances..The problem here...Is you are wrong in your predictions more often than than you are right. With the frustration that a stock like this one engenders with the investors we are always looking for scape goats..and you telling us you have been right like 50 time out of fifty one just gets everyone more pissed..So how do you explain how the stock is supported at 5.40 when it opens around 5.15...
Please do not bother responding to this post..Please just move on...

Regarding Vacine/vacation...Well a week ago I tested positive for Cov- 19...( My doctor hooked me up with some kind of Vacination outfit on the net...and they never bothered getting me an appointment...I am currently doing fine, normal temp...no shortness of breath...am quarantining...till next Tues...and am told I can not get a vaccine for the next two and one half months..

Big day for the bulls. Exro was not invited to the party...
I have seen this before. Generally speaking the standard way of dealing with "hit pieces" is not to rebut them but to ignore them. The accepted practice in the market is to conclude investors with enough clout to effect the PPS, know enough about the issues to discern truth from BS. Rebutting is just getting free publicity when you really do not want it.
Now Exro, a little company with big technology, is having its feet held to the fire.
There is no sportsmanship in the stock market...no chivalry.
All my life I have hated bullies.
I feel for the company and detest pigs like Mariner. The public may be the victims in this story..Exro has amazing technology that can not be denied. If the market wants to pile on they will be the losers. The winners will be those of us that ignore the ugly side of the market and understand the great advances Exro's technology offers..Go ahead ignore the company or pile on...The real winners will be those who bought the cheap shares..
