Disagree with you pharma11

I believe Icahn has more integrity then only self-gain like most of IMCL Board and executive management. Do you go with the flow, put up, and shut up, or do you take a stand like Icahn ?

IMCL needs a board of directors like Merck kGA with Icahn

Merck kGA 3 YEAR return = + 300 %

Imclone return = embarassing

IMCL chairman KIES cannot admit when he is wrong unfortunately.

Launching proxy fights is like getting dressed in the morning for Icahn. Recently, investors who followed Icahn into the maker of the hit Grand Theft Auto video-game series Take-Two Interactive (TTWO) and Symantec (SYMC), the No. 1 anti-virus software maker, were rewarded by gains of 27% and 18% in the price of the stocks, respectively, in just a few months..
