Meanwhile, back at the ranch: I've notice a lot of tv ads for new drugs designed to lower A1c, and other wonderful things, without insulin etc. all requiring injections, and always followed by, 'talk to your doctor to see if XXXXXXX is right for you.' Here we have a drug therapy that is excellent, no injections, very effective, and really convenient, and all we do is look to see if there's an ad in a magazine? REALLY.?? Is that it? Mannkind puts out a sales force of 70 people in a nation of 310,000,000,000 people, and a freaking ad in a couple of magazines and we expect a good return on our investment? What's wrong here? Am I missing the big picture? Is this the big picture? A great therapy that no one knows about and company that has been slow rolling it. Or is it like as one poster suggested...there's a secret plan we, as simple investors, don't know about? That's a lot of people. Think hard!  WORLD population: 7,323,187,457 (July 2016 est.) USA population: 323,995,528 (July 2016 est.) [#4 behind CHINA, INDIA, and arguably the EU] WORLD PWD: ~400,000,000 (400+ million) Still your point is well taken. I do recall a little company that goes by SNY taking years to rollout Lantus into a blockbuster, but that's hearsay. We'll get there. I'm looking for an ULTRA-blockbuster in 10-20 years (hoping within 10). That was Al's Last Challenge: How do we reach 400+ million PWD? Think hard!  This is NOT FAST MONEY. This is BIG MONEY! (This is BIG HEALTH too!) |

I see GLTA True Longs alot. That is a little vague since it could mean someone who just owns stock and gets confused and says I am Long the stock but are just really traders waiting to sell at the first pop. Is there a more precise word for those that think this is a buy and hold for many years that we could use instead? I'm not trying to be mean or anything but why does that really matter. They've invested their money into the stock thinking it will go up but held through the drops. They could've gotten out earlier at minimal lost but now like most of us are down. The only reason I can see them doing so is because they also believe in Afrezza, somewhat. |
