MNTA—A little knowledge is a dangerous thing: this pseudo-analyst thinks MNTA’s share price went up because it has Hatch-Waxman 180-day marketing exclusivity for generic Lovenox:

This unexpected conclusion to the race for a generic Lovenox is a boon to Momenta, which has a lucrative profit-sharing arrangement with Novartis that was contingent upon Momenta's securing the 180-day exclusivity period and locking out other competitors.

Someone needs to let this sorry excuse for an analyst know that the H-W 180-day exclusivity period for generic Lovenox expired in Mar 2009.
