Missling is a multi-millionaire. He does not need unemployment insurance. No. He did something egregious. It would be totally illogical to ask to be fired for cause for the sake of unemployment insurance instead of resigning when being fired for cause is essentially a death sentence for his career. As far as deep value in the pipeline, the pipeline has always been window dressing. Do you really believe Anavex is going to pursue cancer, pain, etc.? It was never going to happen and it ain’t gonna happen in the future.
I’ll stick to my prognosis: An all-stock merger with a similar sized company that needs cash.
