lax, all I did was search the board on "Japan" and found a dozen such posts in the past 2 days; and over 50 in past few weeks.

IMO, Japan wasn't worth 7 points in this stock. That would have made it equal in worth to everything else in this company 7 months ago.

I think the huge drop in EXEL share price has some effect of ARIA trading today. Without EXEL, we would trade in $15s range by now.

Pona approval in Japan only helps increasing ARIA valuation; Now there is a good reason BP paying higher price in order to acquire Ariad.

The stock price action today indicates that ARIA is heading to $18/share prior to the upcoming earning report on 11/03.
