Let me express my perspective differently to you so you might better understand those that don't see things the way you do.


As I wrote recently, 'If you are a long term holder of this stock, and virtually most here are, you know, or should know, that stocks trade, and this stock trades, and every dip since late 2008 has been a opportunity to celebrate the buying opportunity presented, not an opportunity to run the stock down.

'The critics criticize with no basis in fundamental change in the companies prospects. The critics of the complainers are in disbelief that the dissenters don't recognize what they own, and could own more of, only at 10% off.'

If you were to adopt the 'critics of the complainers' perspective for the next 2-3 years re: ARIA, not only will you have one of the best investments for your money, you'll be more consistently happier about it.

Either that or point to real fundamental changes in Ariad's prospects that underscore the trading dips that disappoint you so.
