ADXS—I recently bought a small position in two of the portfolios I manage and announced this in real-time on Twitter (

Would be curious to hear in more detail what you like about them.

I like that ADXS is unliked—i.e. that, despite having multiple collaborations with Big Pharma/Big Bio, ADXS has been written off by many investors as a perpetual loser due to the blunders of prior management. (The current management was responsible for selling ImClone to LLY in 2004.)

Although I generally eschew investing in the overcrowded immuno-oncology arena, ADXS is probably the least followed serious company in this space, so I made an exception.
