I really guessed wrong on the deal and the market reaction. Thought I gave myself plenty of time and I do own straight shares! Kind of went for 2015 and 2016 calls @$10.00 as icing on the cake. At this point, any thoughts that might lift PPS before sales. Still think there is a 2nd part of this deal, but that could be wishful thinking.

If I were you, I'd bit the bullet and roll the 2015 to 2016, or wait for 2017's (should be out in September?). But I, too, guess wrong all the time!

I think with 5 months left there's still a chance for them to recover and recover quicker than the Jan '16 $10. So the plan is to have a stock run up then roll to the Jan '16 $10. Not sure if there is a 2nd part of the deal, but maybe the stock will get some buzz as more details come out and marketing starts.

Just my personal opinion but I think the deal is what it is... And that is not so bad, just means we have to wait a bit longer... Am not expecting a second part to this deal to emerge. While I was anticipating a move to $13 (and thought I was fairly conservative) on the partnership announcement I was clearly off. So I am back to waiting as I do see share price increasing over next 6 to 12 and 12 to 18 months which are my new personal investment model bases for accumulating shares, although am reticent to predict pps. I do, as stated before, strongly believe in the science and think Sanofi was the right choice for partner. I just have to hand it to Wall Street, whether by hook or by crook (mostly crook I suspect) they outplayed me...

mannmade, I do appreciate the fact that you believe, and have all along believed, in the science. But for me, the Adcom proceeding and vote, the FDA approval and the Sanofi decision to throw in, well, let's just say all those things confirmed to me that you've been right all along! LOL! Did you drink you celebratory Scotch yet?
Liane, should have figured you'd be all over that listing date for Jan 2017's!

Actually, I had the same anticipation and was going to roll out of them, wait for the profit taking and roll into 2016,s. Maybe it's wishful thinking, but I think there is a 2nd part. Can't help but see MNT in the mix. Either way, I have enough shares and 2016's that i still will come out ok. "A" is gonna sell like Hotcakes

Oh darn it... that's 20th, not '20. I think I might roll them over into a nice night out at Denny's.

Did you drink you celebratory Scotch yet? Liane, should have figured you'd be all over that listing date for Jan 2017's! Baba, agree with everything above... However as much as i wanted to celebrate the list of achievements you reference above I kept holding off until I could buy the Ferrari... No Ferrari just yet so no Scotch...

mannmade, please go test drive a Boxster before you shell out for a Ferrari. Trust me on this...

BD, thanks for the advice... LOL!!! However, have owned many Porsches to date (including 73 911 RS, which I still kick myself for selling) and no Ferrari so was looking at new California T on partnership pop..., good news is that by the time mnkd pops enough so that I can buy one, I will be able to buy a used low milage one since they are new this September and am expecting to buy mine year from now...

I used to drive a red '91 Toyota MR2 Turbo (what a blast...when I test drove it the first time, I hit the gas and thought I heard a cop chasing me to pull me over...but it was only the turbo spooling up behind me in the engine compartment, lol) and I'd get waves from oncoming Ferraris all the time because it's really hard to tell the difference between the two from the front at a distance!

I was able to get out of my January 2015 $5 calls, when the PPS was on its way down, and sold for $4.45. The pps was about $9.50 at the time. After it continued to spiral down, I bought some Jan 16 calls, spreading them around $10s, $12s and $15s, but now I fear that I should have bit the bullet and bought all $10's or waited on the January 17 Calls to come out. Now I wonder if the January 16 Calls will allow enough time to see what Afrezza sales do and cover the $15s. We should have third quarter 2015 figures in for SNY by Holloween and MNKD by mid November of 2015 at the latest. Hopefully by then, the stock will appreciate enough to cover so that I can roll them to the January 17s.

BD I am a bit of a car nut so know that car well... Love it! Would buy one today if still made them until ready for the Ferrari. Great car!

Rolled a 73 240Z lengthwise twice, didn't walk away but eventually recovered. Been driving trucks since.
