#24707 RE: Rodenta #24705

GTCB: I believe that someone in Europe with an EMEA connection got a leaked "opinion" from 1 individual, pre-CHMP meeting.
There isn't any other "rational" basis for the trading 2 weeks ago. However, though I sometimes view Dew's locale (NE USA) as a foreign address, it isn't Europe.

I don't blame Dew for anything other than influencing others to invest in GTCB using his informed, intelligent opinion status. It is still every individual's duty to manage their own investment research, rather than just lazily relying on others. I am also guilty of this in regards to GTCB.

GTCB management is CLEARLY culpable, however.
EMEA is CLEARLY guilty of irrational fear over transgenics.

I do not plan on holding GTCB at this share price... "hoping" for a buy-out. If the stock drifts down to, say, $.75 (not likely) I may nibble again, looking towards 18-24 months out.

Never again will I assume a political/regulatory risk, as opposed to the "normal" regulatory risk.

That's an outrageous accusation. I don't post but I read the board often. I wish you would do us all a favor and take your anger somewhere else.

I'll just point out that Dew essentially made similar accusations against Walldiver - albeit without the anger.

(Although I agree the emotional monomania that sometimes surfaces on this board is a little hard to take. Whoever the source.)

"That's an outrageous accusation"

I have not made any accusation.


"take your anger somewhere else."

I am not even that angry. This is not about a stock going down; this was a Scam.


1. Dew has freely labelled 2 others here with the insider tag before - WallDiver and BSR_David. So I don't mind asking the question.

2. Now he admits he has material non-public information about Pharming's interest. I actually appreciate knowing that.

3. Bit I simply asked: what else does he know. I explained how extremely close he is to the company - accreditted to ask questions (most of them !) at the GTCB conference calls. Plus he advises a Fund of some kind ("not-for-profits" can be very large $$ indeed).

4. Most here accept his absence on Feb 8th, when the "Big Money" was allowed to escape. So let him confirm he didn't trade GTCB in the month of February. Simple yes/no.

5. But my anger is reserved for what GTCB did to the average holder - this was a Scam. Obviously the number of surgical patients was a red card from day one of this MAA. The MAA should have been withdrawn, that's how the EMEA works. But GTCB instead pulled the wool over our eyes.


But I am going to drop the issue now of ther GTCB Scam - because Dew has already answered elsewhere. I have been sent a few links from the GTCB YMB - you can see whose side Dew is on; the objector is rudely dealt with indeed:

I have made several friends on this board, and we collude on DD of several stocks. My purpose here isn't to "vent" over spilt milk; this was an iHub community "red-letter" day. I don't know if you owned GTCB; if you don't you might at least respect (something that I ask of Dew too) that $1m of shareholder value was lost on this board on Thursday.

And if that respect for a lot of hard-earned money exists, it should be able to tolerate a few simple questions.
