I know of at least 3 different posters on this board who have recently dreamed of MNKD making a huge run-up after opening. Each of them claims to have awoken before selling any of their overweighted shares. I think this is clear evidence that they are suffering from investor fatigue. My recent dream of hitting a large slot machine jackpot is much better evidence of psychological stability. At least I made money before waking up.

LOL, Spiro! Years ago, in an oil and gas investment at East Lost Hills, California (two hours north of LA), we used to write about posters coming down with "ELHFS" or "East Lost Hills Fatigue Syndrome." The symptoms were quite nasty, and had levels. One of the levels was the fear that grips you after you realize you've spent money thinking the the investment was going to be successful! Not sure that dreams like you describe were recognized levels, but they certainly fit the bill!! By the way, ELH ultimately turned into a dud, even though they drilled about 5 23,000 or so foot wells where such deep wells were not the norm. The first one was a giant blowout, melted down the rig in an hour and burned for five days! They were never able to find that zone successfully again, but it gave some real hope! Coincidentally, I drove by that blow out on my way from LA to Carmel, prior to my investing in the project, it was not far off the main highway (interstate 5) and could be seen for miles and miles. Piqued my interest and soon thereafter starting investing in the play.
I know we have several MD's on board, any psychiatrists, psychologists or therapists? The pressure is only going to continue to build, but a real good NR would reduce that pressure greatly for a couple of months, before building once again.
