    << <i>It's been a good 12 months for HALO, took additional profits this morning in order to limit the position size, will reallocate that capital (yes, some in PMs) and let the rest ride. Of course, someone will surely complain that a new and broadly effective anti-cancer treatment is just one more plot for "them" to steal our liberty, but of course would change their tune if they or a loved one would benefit from it. >>



    Ha, taking some profits? chicken ;~

    A wise man once said, you can never go broke taking profit. Good job with HALO, their pancreatic cancer study looks promising.

    I sold off 2/3 of my ARRY earlier, may add again if it drops, I'm sure I have too much in AMFD now, but for a tiny speculative company, they have interesting NK killer cell and T cell redirectors. This truly appears to be a breakthrough period for cancer research and other tough diseases. A lot of companies are involved. Some of these bio's will continue higher, but many more will probably crash and burn, because valuations and speculation are even higher than normal in the Bio space

    Would it be possible to show the list sorted by percentage increase/decrease rather than price increase/decrease?

    Good job with HALO, their pancreatic cancer study looks promising.

    They're going to update the progression-free survival and overall survival data for the high hyaluronan patient subset in an oral presentation at the ASCO conference at the end of this month.

    True that biotechs can be very volatile, reacting strongly to company specific news like clinical trial results and business deal news, to sector developments both positive and negative, as sell as being subject to overall stock market sentiment, sometimes going up or down simply because market players consider risk to be "on" or "off" in their trading.

    Currently +125% YDT, and have taken profits at several points this year in RLP, while letting most of the position run for further gains (or eventual losses, maybe, possibly, (you hope?!?)

    Best wishes to all and good luck

    40th....to 15th...to 8th.....but an exercise in futility....half way in and it looks like we're all fighting for third (at best)..too early to congratulate Baley?....endocott loves bluelobster

    at least i learned something...in real life i probably would have thrown in the towel (cashed or hedged) when i essentially started in 40th place....btw..I will take my blind luck..

    endocott loves bluelobster image good one.

    Seriously, it's way too early in the game to know how it will shake out in 5 more months, if the stock market finishes strong and a few stocks that some of us own have a bad result, you might be sitting pretty at the end of this thing. The fat lady ain't sang yet.

    Stupid corrupt CEO going through a divorce and found in contempt of court with a warrant for his arrest, and busted for insider trading earlier this year.

    If you had just kept the $9,000 USD without investing, you'd currently be sitting number 6 out of 54. Brutal!

    Biotechs can drop like flies

    Monday June 22, 2015 8:56 AM

    True that biotechs can be very volatile, reacting strongly to company specific news like clinical trial results and business deal news, to sector developments both positive and negative, as sell as being subject to overall stock market sentiment, sometimes going up or down simply because market players consider risk to be "on" or "off" in their trading.

    Currently +125% YDT, and have taken profits at several points this year in RLP, while letting most of the position run for further gains (or eventual losses, maybe, possibly, (you hope?!?)

    Best wishes to all and good luck


    Of course, the thread is about buy-and-hold for a calendar year, however in "real life portfolio", was a little early and sold chunks of various stocks including my pick on the way up; missed the absolute top, but allocated toward rental real estate and dry powder, now starting to rebuild certain stock positions but just nibbling at the moment... all markets could be in for more pain before 2015 is over..

    "They" didn't fix their country. Someone else paid the bill.

    Nobody paid any bills and nothings fixed but they kicked the can beyond December and they didn't do me any favors image
