I was not expecting any announcements at the ASM, that has not been the case in the past, so I certainly didn't expect any real news, certainly not TLD. I was a bit disappointed overall though. I enjoyed the in-person meetings. They always made me feel better because the Board/Management are able to better convey their passion for what they are doing. At the in-person meetings it is also more than just Linda Powers talking. I have never found her to be a compelling speaker, which is fine, she has more important qualities. Still, having just her speak on video isn't as motivating. At least at the last ASM they told us where they were and gave us an idea of what was happening next. I didn't get any real sense of where they are today. Blinded? Unblinded? Almost to the finish line? Barely started? The only thing we know is not to expect any news for at least a couple of months. Oh, and I like the cookies at the in-person meetings!
None of this changes my feelings about the chances of success or determination to continue to hold on. Just not inspiring. After a year of COVID, another 13 months of waiting after suggestions that TLD was imminent, and entreaties to be patient and hang in there, I could have used a touch of inspiration. Would I prefer that they spent their time on getting TLD out and DC-Vax approved than giving me a pat on the head? Sure. But both would be nice. :)
As to deciding whether or not to sell now? That is easy. Not worth the risk or the conversion of long-term shares into short-term ones for $0.45 a share.
