I think they failed because of the cost of their treatment and because they were the first treatment to get through all the hurdles and were not the most advanced. I won't claim to be an expert, on the company, but I think it went beyond the shorting, unfortunately.

But it was a valiant effort and just because they ultimately had challenges staying afloat, it was not because they did anything wrong.

This is the problem with people like AF. THey actually don't understand the science, so all they can do is put out nonsense that sounds vaguely scientific to justify a position they've already taken. He has taken the same position on almost allof these companies, based upon outdated and badly conceived research he did on companies that are not directly similar in a number of ways.

He's a fraud, alleging fraud, as I see it. He's just not credible. But, even a broken clock is correct, twice a day, which is pretty good, if you think about it. How many people do you know who can't get it right even that many times a day, every day? Again, all must my personal opinion.

I'm not a believer in that theory. I do believe that if they continue to have an advantage in the field, both technologically and can deliver it economically, they will do very well.

The world is constantly evolving. They will have to manage well, not just as a start-up, but if they are successful now, they will need to move to become a well-run, better company at all levels. They are understaffed and have a lot to do to get to that point, once they are successful.

NWBO has been made aware of deepcapture Dendreon story based on my sending to Les Goldman over 2.5 years ago that particular link. AND it was included in this FIRST post of mine on NWBO:

The investment process as it relates to biotecs is exceedingly complex as it stands, and complicated by the readings of deepcapture.com, compounded by inaccuracies/taking statements out of context/death by a thousand cuts by bloggers as AF with deep affiliations who appear exceedingly desperate lately to enact such major NWBO market manipulations IMHO. To withstand these tidal waves (in the clear absence of NWBO press releases) one needs to be thoroughly versed and up to date in SEC filings, rather than add more UNNEEDED fuel for currently desperate shorts or the motivations of Dr. Buzman and MD Anderson. And the most comprehensive single source IMHO is Nasdaq.com as it relates to 10K(aka annual Bible); 10Q; Def14(Proxy); Short Interest (think it's 7 days after 15th/30th of each month); Institutional Ownership (mininum 6 wks lag from closing qtr); AH trading etc.

Moreover, CEO Linda Powers did do a masterful strategic analysis in 2010 BEFORE becoming CEO on the pitfalls of DNDN's product conceptualization issues that were the key to it's demise along with BAD management. which was contained in the WHY NWBO HAS SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY as well as a fraction of the cost vs that of clearly dethroned and nearing extinction (DNDN's Provenge): contained in the July 15, 2010 CEO Linda Powers Interview by M.E. Garza:

Do read entirety of Post # 66538:
In biotech, the tipping point into bankruptcy isn’t often debt butproduct failure, says Robert Eisenbach, bankruptcy counsel at the law firm Cooley.

Provenge was the most complicated and expensive-to-manufacture of all cancer vaccines developed. Yet it drew investors, while simple vaccines that might protect many patients against recurrence, or might protect us from getting cancer at all, get overlooked.
