Ya, I did, but honestly, I don't personally believe that just because JPMorgan plans for Mannkind to be there, that that necessarily means Mannkind plans on being there. I put it there more or less to encourage discussion. Al is also the keynote speaker on another platform in Boca Raton a week or so later. I guess we'll hear soon if either materializes.

If Al or Matt decide not to show at JPMorgan, at first blush the masses will be disappointed that we won't get the possibility of Al tipping his hand. But in actuality a NoShow could really only mean one thing, and that is a BIG positive.

They always announce a week before an event. www.news.mannkindcorp.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=147953&p=irol-news&nyo=1 |

Hi Brentie and all,
I just called the Mannkind investor relations number and expecting to get Roberta but surprisingly Matt P. actually answered the phone. I asked him if MNKD would be presenting at the JP Morgan conference next week and he confirmed that MNKD will be there and that a news release would be posted shortly. I also asked him if MNKD would be discussing the content of the FDA 74-day letter. His exact response was "If there was anything to be discussed". I have learned much from the many longtimers here and thought I would try to contribute what little knowledge I have. I have been investing in MNKD for only 1.5 years and MNKD is now 2/3 of my portfolio. I believe MNKD will finally get the long awaited FDA approval and have bet a large amount of my Roll over IRA in the company. I read this forum and your posts everynight before bed.
A clean 74-day letter does not mean an FDA approval but it's one less question/hurdle to jump through for now.
Thanks again everyone for sharing all your knowledge with fellow MNKD followers.
Regards,
MNKDFAN

"If there was anything to be discussed"
I take this as very positive, but I would rather he said, "there is nothing to be discussed".

I suspect if there was anything "material" in the letter, they would have to reveal it much sooner and in a more widely distributed manner than at a conference. JMHO. |

Can I just say you are all amazing? Geez, after reading through this post and everyone's reply I can't help but feel like we're on a cruise together - all looking forward to arriving to our destination together! Let's just hope it's not a ship called Titanic.
Happy New Years All!

MnkdFan, 2/3 of your portfolio in MNKD!? That's something. I hope you're young, then you'll either have plenty of years to enjoy it or plenty of years to replenish it!
You should have told Matt you were with (pick a BP) and thought you'd left your Iphone there when you visited recently, you might have struck gold! LOL!
Hey, Chris, you're in a fine mood tonight, great! I just got back from seeing my Kings lose in a SO after dominating the game but scoring only one goal.

Hi Baba, You're very correct and it's down right nerve racking and I should be much more diversify. My plan, however is to reduce a fair amount before the 4/15 date just in case the FDA decides to be a pain again. I am no spring chicken so your advice is very sound. My frustration with the FDA is they seem to approve new drugs with much more severe known and unknown side affects and then scrutinize drugs that seemingly have more benefits than risk. There does not seem to be a logic to the process. One more thing and you folks may already know this, Novo is so hypocritical in assessing Afrezza to just be a specialty product when they (Novo)themselves are spending millions to develop their own version of an injectable ultra-fast acting insulin (FIAsp). diatribe.us/issues/50/new-now-next/4Good Luck everyone!!
