I in no way think anyone is getting ready to screw us over:-) I think we are on the brink of turning this around. Another company may have recognized it? SNY would be watching closely. It will turn out to be one of their big mistakes as time passes. It's kinda like buy now or cry later if you don't get back to even...maybe for us and SNY. If SportsRancho is buying, I'm buying! You know what they say about MNKD, this could be your last chance to buy at these prices :-) Don't say auntie Fanny didn't warn you. "last chance to buy at these prices"... that could go both ways. If it's straight down to bankruptcy, we never may get back this high I'd like to see some new buyers step in. Even if us old timers didn't start off with mental confusion, I think the experience of MNKD has induced enough PTSD, or perhaps Stockholm syndrome, so our judgement should not be given too much weight

We'll know more during the annual shareholder meeting on May 17. I am hoping positive slope of TRX and NRX numbers before that. SNY really did a great job put MNKD back to the shit hole.

I would agree with Sports to an extent. I thinking a turn around is in progress. I just don't see evidence it will be a "brink" type turn around. it may be painfully slow... to the point of causing MNKD to hit the cash flow liquidity wall. In fact I'm pretty certain the wall is unavoidable. Just an issue of whether they slam into it full force or they manage to slow down and bounce off it in a painful but marginally graceful way.
Yes, agree with this..
I think we will be fine. But we will have to climb the wall of worry against time.
When ever I spend money I have to look at the worst case scenario. Which in my mind has never been BK but a cheap BO. ( By cheap I mean 10pps post split.)
So spending $5k now is insurance. If I had extra money, which I don't, I'd buy a lot more:-).

I think Sports is right on the money. They did calculations on ST for how much the Mann Group paid, their average was about $1.60/share pre split or about $8 post split. They said if they sold their shares as a last resort, it would likely be for around $10. I mean someone could buy themselves majority ownership of a nice little pharma company with an FDA approved product for a few million dollars. That's not an opportunity that presents itself every day.

I'm seriously awed at your due diligence. How can you go wrong with advice from message boarders and stock twitterers? Obviously, they are the ones with the inside scoop about what Matt and the Mann Group are doing. (The smiley is so you know I am [mostly] just kidding.)

Lol, "But a few on here messaged me and told me that is not true, that his is going to make an epic change and bring back all of the lost money in the stock." I just want to make it clear that no one has massaged me and told me that. I have had people message me and tell me they had talked to their doc's, or run into someone they talked to awhile back and that their doctors views on Afrezza were changing for the better. I think Mike posted the same on Twitter.

SportsRancho, you deserve a massage, not only for all of the hard work you do for MNKD, but to battle the delayed onset muscle soreness after a hard day of pumping iron. Here's some epic potential: www.cnbc.com/2017/04/12/apple-working-on-glucose-sensors-diabetes-treatment.htmlGo MNKD!!

To funny, I just posted that:-) The initiative is far enough along that Apple has been conducting feasibility trials at clinical sites across the Bay Area and has hired consultants to help it figure out the regulatory pathways, the people said. One of the people said that Apple is developing optical sensors, which involves shining a light through the skin to measure indications of glucose. Accurately detecting glucose levels has been such a challenge that one of the top experts in the space, John L. Smith, described it as "the most difficult technical challenge I have encountered in my career." The space is littered with failures, as Smith points out, but that hasn't stopped companies from continuing to attempt to crack this elusive opportunity.
To succeed would cost a company "several hundred millions or even a billion dollars," DexCom executive chairman Terrance Gregg previously told Reuters.
The breakthrough would be a boon for millions of people with diabetes, spur new medical research and open up a potential market for consumers to track their blood sugar for health and wellness insights. It could turn the Apple Watch into a "must have" rather than a "nice to have" for people who would benefit from an easier way to track their blood sugar. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- would be nice.

The one thing Verily/Onduo, Apple and IBM Watson all have in common is if they intend to do something about the high blood sugar they want to monitor in a fast a predictable way they all need the one and only thing which reduces high blood sugar and that would be monomer human insulin just like the pancreas secretes. Measuring is nice but hooking these monitors up to the cloud and providing a turn-key service is the real money maker. Similar to what Amazon is do with AWS. I am a little surprised Amazon is also not doing something in the real time sensor space. Their AWS team is pretty impressive.
Maybe Matt has a plan after all and he is not delusional. afrezza has ZERO competition in the real-time space. It obsoletes all current T2 treatments and all RAAs available or in development.

What happens to the stock price, if the Mann Trust has a willing buyer for its stake at a price higher than the current pps? And, please don't dismiss the thought out of hand, because, it's an efficient way for them to exit, potentially more whole than at present, and for another to enter with a major block/control at a specific price. Just curious - would the market pps then jump to match the offered price of the buyer of the trusts shares? Send your question to Google, since we all know that is who is buying MNKD I hope you are right, dreamboat. The shoe fits. If this ship sinks, I will be very surprised. But, at the same time, I am way too invested to throw any more money at it. I am thinking that I want to hold on until we get verification that the ship is not going to sink. But, I'm afraid that when the news is released, the next day the SP will be SSSOOOO much higher that it will be prohibitive to all of us to invest more then (LOL, i guess you could say we MISSED that boat ). Just imagine how much the PPS will go up if it were announced at 5:00pm that Google is buying and pairing with its cgm. The way things have been going with continued spending and hiring and cool collect management, and other indicators, I just have believed right along that Matt & Mike have this ship under control. I believe they have had the partnership plans mapped out and it will all come together in some kind of big announcement. If Amgen made the announcement, it would be big. If Google made it, it would be huuge.

Oh, just wait until the meeting, announcement, investment conference, boy we're going to show those shorts and.......................................nothing. And here we are. I'll stay on the sidelines for now thank you.
