Stock tanked last year because hep b trials killed a chimp, so they shelved project to focus on Amgen and RNAi program therapies.
Buy half now, buy the other half on a pullback. Fucking beautiful chart. BEAUTIFUL
Only short to medium term risk is dilution, which is a very real possibility . The buying is just SO strong though, wow. BEAUTIFUL, like, it's ....just,.....its a beautiful chart. So firm and consistent, and green, with heavy volume. For it to have responded so strongly after a major investor left is very indicative of positive outcomes in the future.
