IBB is a stock fund. Consequences are none, many companies are de-listed better stocks discovered. Owners bring no value, they hope for price increase. 6.6 million is a small percentage of total shares less than 2%. A three day trade level and a 109 million held in shorted stock will eat them on a PPS rise. The Finra trade of 12/13/2016 showed a 32% purchase of shorted shares today. IBB could keep shares or sale for tax write off.
They will use it for gains write off. When MNKD rises they will repurchase. IMO and a dollar may buy you a coffee, if left alone it will fade. Otherwise it is a great FUD tool.

Nasdaq and Nasdaq Biotech two different indices. Pep, does this mean that we won't be in the IBB? If so and the IBB goes into a bear market like Nate mentioned on that radio show. It would be to our advantage not to be in it. It doesn't make a difference really since the components move independently. The IBB is useful for hedging the biotech sector though or that's what I use it for. If you think a stock is going to out-perform you can short the index and remove the impact of market direction while isolating the gain. I think dropping out of the index will increase volatility in the short term because you are transferring holdings from non-discretionary to discretionary hands. While it was in the index that % was locked up and would not be traded, now it's in the trading pool. |

I discovered this link this morning: FINRA rule 6433. I posted it on MNKD stocktwits. It was activated Dec 9 2016 and I believe an extension of previous rule. I believe the guide lines for major traders. |

Zacks increases MNKD rating to strong buy. NASDAQ says MNKD is being removed from the annual biotech index, not from the NASDAQ listing. Video clips promoting Afrezza are now showing up on many TV health segments in major cities across America. Google analytics shows a significant spike up in the word search for Afrezza. We're at the end of the year tax sell-off of stocks. Mike C tells blogger critique you're going to thank me soon enough. It appears to be a really good time to place more bets whichever your perspective. GL I go to google.com/trends and don't see the spike you mention. Is there some other source for search data that shows something different? |

The actual chart was posted on another thread and it showed a very big jump last month. I can't remember which thread. Maybe someone else can help.

From my point of view I could give a crap about IBB listing. Its Afrezza sales I have my eye on, when those start soaring listings will be like TP. We can clean up when were done!

Maybe you mean this thread. mnkd.proboards.com/thread/6846/website-metrics-search-trafficYes, the number of visits jumped yugely but forum poster sophie observed that the average visit duration was 3 seconds suggesting that a bot was generating most of the page views. To out that into perspective, every real person who spends 60 seconds reading the information on the page is offset by about 28 bot views lasting about a second each (obviously this is an approximation). So page views did jump, but in a rather deceiving way. |
