kc, buddy, "baba" is a male, although I'm pleased that someone knowledgeable put me into the ranks of the clearly alpha gender on this board! I've got skin in the game, alright, but much of it was scraped off while skidding and sliding down some pretty rough pavement! Is this run prelude to big news or to a money raise? The ball is bouncing on the roulette wheel, will it end up on red or black, or, as so often happens, surprise everyone with green?

Everyone has a best case, worst case. My worst case is a cheap BO. I'll go with baba's 3pps. 10% chance in my mind. But that's why we bought 1.50 and 2.00 dollar calls when the stock was under a dollar:-) baba's as long as I am. Just covering all the bases:-)
I'm with Nate. Really strong buy under 5. Buy under 10. I don't think about 300pps....or going under at this point. I think about how much more we are going to be worth the more exposure and market share we gain.
Building a great team:-) All you have to do is look:-)) And not let the shorts blind you. IMO..Mikes got this. GL to all. Looking forward to all the fun on the way up! Reaching more PWD! Watching a baby company grow...

Watching a baby company grow... Momentum can shift really fast. I mean really really fast, like a blink of eye. We all got really surprised when GS first set a target price of $0.15 pre-split (which translates into $0.75 post-split). Now most longs will agree that Mannkind is totally undervalued at such a price, and nevertheless, GS successfully predicted the price. Now, GS owns two million plus shares as of 6/30, and they increased their holdings of Mannkind in the second quarter of 2017 by about 33%. www.nasdaq.com/symbol/mnkd/institutional-holdings Not a ton, but a meaningful amount. What if GS countenances that it starts to covers Mannkind again and publishes a bullish piece like the one published by equities.com?
www.equities.com/news/mannkind-mnkd-moving-forward-under-new-leadership Same stuff, but just comes out under GS' name. What if GS writes that they like the new leadership and see Afrezza has a great chance to succeed after-all and that they also see a great opportunity for Mannkind in the PAH market space. And as icing on the cake, what if they then give Mannkind a target price of $25? Think about it? What will happen? Brown Bear Brow Bear What do you see? I see GS riding their "small" holding in Mannking to $50 plus million in no time. And GS has barely sweated. Not saying this will happen. But what I wrote above is not impossible to happen either, right? (A $25 price only gives Mannkind a $2.5 billion market cap, which is probably the fair value I will give it as of now.) And if somethings like the above happens, it can happen at any moment from now on. I am just giving one example here (and there could be many such examples) where momentum can shift dramatically, with the underlying fundamentals basically remain unchanged. I know we longs have been beaten up for so long, but things can get really interesting at any time. Hey, poor babaoriley , there is still hope, isn't it?

gs would probably back the loan as well.
I like the way you think. We find out next conference call? The analyst questions? Next caller,

Lol It's in my opinion; the most likely thing to happen. I think about that playing out just like you wrote it! Same price target:-) I remember falling for.....if GS says buy, sell! And if they say sell, buy. Was I nuts? Yes! You guys better get ready because when they say buy, they will have picked up enough and we will hit their price target just like planned. BTW, I'm thinking they do it sometime next year.

Well, we have more than doubled in price from the beginning of May. How many have sold some of those cheap shares for some profit (ie, loss cutting)?

I'm holding all for now, even the ones I got right at bottom. Though I do have some dry powder now in case turn of events leads to need for further "averaging down".

Anyone else find it interesting that with some imminent material events, there's almost no open interest or activity in options for Sept & Oct?
