In Dr. Stolls repley to Omb., he did not state Cortex could not do a short term AD study as did EPIX, from his reply I infered that there is not enough scientific statistical merit for the instrument that EPIX used to measure change.
The majority of people believe without doubt that of which they want to believe.
Dr. Stoll seemed to state that ADAS.cog associated with the type of study done in EPIX does not have a lot of merit, validity to it, high probably of a false positive.
The wording of the press release does not denote future successful results, and an extremely small study with many unknown details or significant variance in results does not denote any firm future successful results.
Think of Epix as a high likeliehood for having their stock price slashed when their next study results come out or maybe they have have some positive results.
As far as the pop in price, sometimes the buyers and numbers involved with creating that pop don't have as much true meaning or truth as you think it might.
There was a yahoo poll I read recently on how come turkeys aren't bred with only white meat and the most popular (80% or so) response was that it wouldn't be right to bred turkeys which have no legs.
around 10% agreeance was a guy who tried to talk about how there are different muscle fiber types, slow twitch, fast twitch, etc and there was a different amount of oxidative ability, mitochondria of which different muscle groups for different actions have different ratios and the white/dark meat is basically different types of muscle for different types of muscle work.
