I've personally detached from any expectation of clear communication from NWBO. Frankly, they've become weird, disjointed, inconsistent and unreliable in their communications. This might be explained by circumstantial events, and I've done my best to try to integrate that into what they might be facing -- like possible negotiations with NICE. Regardless, because I remain invested, I try to pick up on various points from other sources and then track them back to NWBO action or nonaction, which is usually cloaked by layers of silence and opaqueness. This was not always the case, and the new reality started taking shape around October 2015. I am currently in the camp that believes they do not care about their retail investors, nor most of their past investors -- excepting Toucan and Cognate. The worst possible assumption is they are trying to trap the next Woodford (note: Woodford might have brought this upon himself by going negative early, requesting investigation and drawing attention to Phase V while then closing in on controlling minority share count) to build up Advent -- and justify it by saying the trial needs more time and therefore we must build up more capacity. I hope that is not the case. I hope they are simply working through NICE QALY and appraisal bottlenecks with a heightened sense of urgency. They just arn't clear, complete or responsive. If every public company could run their business in such a fashion, and do so based upon the same justifications, there'd in effect be no such thing as fiduciary responsibility.
