According to the MNKD SEC filing:
"Pursuant to the stock purchase agreements, the shares of common stock will be sold at a price per share equal to 97% of the closing price of the Company's common stock on the TASE on November 12, 2015, which is the trading day immediately preceding the first day on which the Company's common stock will enter specified TASE stock indexes."
So, for the next two trading days:
--- If you have any dry powder, PURCHASE more MNKD shares even token amount. --- If you are currently loaning out shares for shorts, recall them back so that shorts can't use them to drive the share price down. You can resume loaning out again after November 12.
Will this idea help Mannkind to have the best chance to survive for Afrezza to establish a foothold in the market?

Us retail investors do not have much of an impact on the share price. It is very foolish to.. "If you have any dry powder purchase MNKD" without any logical reason to think mnkd will be going up in the near future. Sorry all I see is further decline for the near future and unloaded my position at 2.75 friday last week at a great loss. I may come back in at some point when MNKD is lower but I am not sure. So far it feels good to be free of this stock.
We all know afrezza is a great drug but sometimes good drugs do fail because there are to many outside forces against them. This may end up being the case here.. maybe not. either way... mnkd is going down in the near-term.
GLTA
EDIT: Better yet... MNKD will probably continue to decline until reaching Goldman's price target of 1.50 PPS that will be around the same time Sanofi does not bail in January, and states further commitment. At which point Goldman will release a 6 dollar price target with a Strong Buy rating to signal the shorts to cover.

No, this post is about helping Mannkind to have the best chance of survival.
Think about giving Mannkind the best chance to survive NOT fighting among ourselves or accusing other investors of their investing philosophy. Personally, I have never loan my shares out.
--- Give Mannkind the best opportunity to execute --- It's just an idea that may change to course of Mannkind future.

Will this idea help Mannkind to have the best chance to survive for Afrezza to establish a foothold in the market? Sorry, but you can buy all you want and not lend out your shares but that's not going to save Mannkind. It's like thinking by buying an electric car that you are saving the environment. It's not that simple but sure sounds good and makes you feel better. The way Mannkind survives is two fold. Afrezza needs to take off and start selling in quantity to start making a profit and Mannkind needs to show that Technosphere isn't a one trick pony. So far Mannkind has not done a very good job in executing on the next Technosphere candidate. I might be mistaken but two conference calls ago (or maybe it was at an investors conference) it was intimated that another TS candidate was soon to be released. To date, we still have no idea what is going on. My only guess is that Mannkind thought they had a deal but that blew up and the partner walked away. If I remember correctly, the "every 6 month for a TS candidate" pushed by Matt in the beginning part of the year hasn't yet come to fruition. I understand things don't always go as planned but Mannkind no longer has the luxury of missed business opportunities now. Mannkind will only survive if it can actually execute its business plan and so far its not going anywhere as well as they had hoped.

Mannkind management is the JV. They are so in over their head. Sure they did get us through the FDA process, but everything past that has been one misstep after the other.

Lend Mannkind $100,000,000. Or get someone to buy out the company.

I don't think there will so much people buying today and tomorrow .... May be before the closure of the III day something can happen.
WallStreet is full of people bidding and exposed on MNKD failure ... This is a 3 days call for them ... Their street is free and shorting the stock they will have a double result: PPS down and MNKD collect less from Israel funds. What a goal... I can bet on somethnig as 9% down today and 9% down tomorrow. Thursday boh ?
Here every one is happy on this way to collect money. Personally not. Sorry.
My feeling was that our PPS was strongly underwater due to heavy short index. I was quite OK with that. But now no more. You have PPS around 3$ and practically You decide to give 50 Million shares to a friend for 2$ ? And I pay ! We pay !
I'm not sure that a loan was so worse than this .... Sorry.
I am still holding, practically FORCED to buy more next Thursday and I will become totally unbalanced.
I will give February Earnings the last chance for my investment here.
Manipulation is much higher then science.

The best thing any diabetic using afrezza can do now is to STOCK-UP, it could possibly help RX sales numbers and if current management continues to drive this company into the ground you'll at least have some inventory for a while.
