I think it's a race at this point.

PR's are good and all - but their effect is fleeting.
It would bring huge swings to the PPS (both up and down) - I could live with that :)
We wouldn't want people to get numb to PR's though - the actual event would be lessened.

No, ANX needs product. Our product is the potential for a drug or two - not the drug itself.

Why? Because we can't fix or improve the drug. Not enough money, time or manpower.

So, it's the perception of threat against big pharma that's key.
That's NDA's, FDA accepts, and partnerships - not the drug itself.

Weird isn't it?

At the same time - I wouldn't be surprised for the PPS to be brought into the low teens several times over the next few months so Icahn and Craimer can grab a majority stake of the commons as the VOL goes down, buyers tire, and the axe gets agressive...

But yes, Genzym eats ANX and becomes a superpower overnight - and Icahn will own Genzym - probably exchanging ANX shares for Genzym shares to bump him over 51% (if he isn't there already by that time).

Derbyblood, I am sorry but...

this conspiracy theory is VERY HARD to believe and those are some strong allegations. I can read into the whole Genzym theory and have read their drugs major problems are at the injection site, which ANX could possibly fix, but to believe his people are "holding the PPS down" it just ridiculous. Besides for the potential of ANX-530 and ANX-514, this Company has NO revenue. How else would you like this Company to be valued? On it's potential. Well, right now, we just got rejected from the FDA on ANX-530's NDA. We do not know when ANX-514 NDA will be submitted, therefore our stock value on "potential" has been hindered. I know you guys have been saying that the AMEX specialists (not market makers, since they are different), are placing trades below the bid, and yes that is manipulation, but, to say it's Icahn's people is way out in left field. I want you to do yourself a favor and look at Icahns positions in dollar value. I think you will have a better perspective on how much he cares about ANX. Sh*t, if he really cared, he would have loaded the boat prior to this NDA being submitted when the stock was at $.10!! His average is $1.30 or something right?!?

Look, I am long ANX and hold a my fair share of stock and want this Company to be successful, but, let's not get ahead of ourselves here and it's important to put everything into perspective.
