The only bright spot I saw today (if you could call it that) was that we seemed to bounce off the 50 day.

The bottom bollinger was support two days ago, and in June , when it hit the 50sma... It took a week to boosh.

Well I should be feeling like crap..

but I don't because I already got the crap kicked OUT OF ME today.

The good news is, I remain as convinced as ever this the best, late adolescent biotech out there period and that ARIA will mature into a top tier biotech within two to three years.

Furthermore I thought the call was great and am really looking forward to Merck getting off dead center and showing their intentions for Rida in other indications. I think that alone could boost the stock considerably. Oh yeah, and 250K potential patients for '113 and 20X as potent as Pfizers much ballyhooed Crizotonib, are you kidding me?!!! Cha ching! Thats worth 10 points all on its own, imo. A positive PR or two and we'll be fine. Hey, you can't make an omelette without breaking a couple of eggs.

One last thought..I'm really loving the coverage/interest were getting from the St. That bodes very well for the future! I think they will be out defending Ariad, sooner than later.

Also I'd be quite remiss if I didn't give kudos to BTH for calling the exact top. I have to admit though I didn't think the macro environment/market would go to crap as quickly as it did. My bad.
