Biotech Values

you are spot on about personality and ego involvement. AF I've known for yrs ,going back to his thestreet.com days ,is a lightweight in bio knowledge.

While he is no good in data analysis, he is quite useful in bringing into the spotlight the financial and PR shenanigans of cheap price stocks and thus earned himself a (not deserved notoriety imo) among those retailers who love gambling with penny stocks .

As far as Matt Herper, in this case I do have to agree with you. He was sceptical about V top line already and yesterday imo was just digging deep enough to validate his preconceived earlier biases.

In terms of human foibles what these two did yesterday was nothing new to me. I can't remember whose quote is was ,but imo it was quite perceptive about human nature. "Scientific knowledge advances one death at a time".

Just remember how hard and how long it was for radical mastectomy to be dethroned or better yet how difficult for the bacterial diagnosis of ulcers to become mainstream.

thank you for your contribution to this forum btw
