kag...from Dec 04 to Jul 05 you could have bought around 20 mil shares of BOCX under $2. 60% of this stock could be bought under $100 mil in market cap. Nobody is paying half a bil for RECAF. Quit fantasizing and do what you do best...real due diligence.
It would be best for both companies to share the risk and rewards. The market gives a much higher valuation to steady income than one time payments. It normally takes longer to perfect the last 5% of a process than the first 95%. This risk would be reduced for Abbott if we shared part of the risk and gained in future royalties.
