Spot on L4AP...!!! NWBO didn’t hire Duffy to sit on his arse... and l was going to mention that the pps went up dramatically at the end of the day after the shorts shook the tree vigorously to get their last few shares... do we go up from here till ASM...??? Interesting times indeed...!!!
After what happened with Woodford, there is no way on earth LP would have let Duffy anywhere near her secret sauce unless it was nailed down that he could not take that information elsewhere.
I believe LP would not sell at a low offer and BP (Merck) would not buy at high offer until approval
As we were nearing approval I think LP was offered help (Duffy) to get to that stage (before another BP trys to make a move)
Also whilst here at NWBO he had chance to validate the chances of Direct gaining approval.
To me the big question is, why did Merck keep his job open for so long. Surely a company needs to fill vital positions as quickly as possible, so as not to impeed progress.
JMHO but with Sawston, Bosche going to Netherlands, Duffy moving back to Merck, it all seems to fit that something big is about to happen very soon
MRK'S Perlmutter sent duffy to make sure this gets to the finish line?? and they buyout or partner nwbo sometime soon
even low level employees have non competes about going to other companies. nwbo doesnt have many employees and duffy likely was given access to everything being done.
an offer he couldnt refuse may be ascending to the top of mrk very soon and bringing nwbo into the fold...
