Damn. It actually looks like the shorts are going to try and claw back all of yesterday’s gain. Wow. I have been around this stock for a long long time and I thought nothing would surprise me. This surprises me.

Maybe this is a cash raise by Mannkind like when the pps shot up to $6 and quickly returned back to the $2 range. Kinda looking that way. THEY just slammed it down to 2.92 with 685 thousand shares in just 5 minutes. As Ben Stein calls out, " SEC, SEC, where are you SEC? Anybody seen Bueller (SEC)?" Careful what you wish for, alethea. Remember the great line in "The Sting" when the Robert Shaw character has just been beaten by Paul Newman in the poker game on the train - "4 nines" 4 Jacks". "What was I supposed to do, call him for cheating better than I in front of the others?"

I hope Mike has a couple of drinks to relax before the call conference. He needs to be confident and assuring.

Hurry people you are running out of time ... last chance to buy MNKD at under $3. This CC will be so great that it'll blow the roof off!
But then, I have been known to be Wong. (asian guy in Hawaii)

If we can hold around $3, we're still up 20% from two days ago!
Just another day in the MNKD rollercoaster...

the only not so nutty thing about price today, is presently price is testing the 100 day moving average it went through yesterday. (?)

My take is that today was manipulated to get above $4.00. That's all. No CC in recent years was so relevant, that it moved the share price so much. We rather got crushed during and after a CC. I dont know if I should take some profit now, and buy when they dilute later? I had a bunch of lots lined up to sell the last time, but I held back when it started to go up, and then it dropped.. I should have sold some of those 4.xx lots then. I'm trying to lower my cost basis.. If I can get to 3.xx cost basis, I would be more than happy. Decision time! Quoting myself like a narcissist :-) I had an order to sell at 3.83 (after much thinking placed it very late, 10 min before close). Didn't go thru :-( I'm kicking myself now. I have no idea why the scripts are stuck here. The 3/4/5 day etc excuse cannot go forever. They need repeated ads, and that requires a lot of money. Insurance as well. They have to raise a lot of money for ads. Unless Afrezza becomes a household name (like viagra, that pillow, etc), it is difficult to increase scripts. Or, they should go all in with vdex, and start soliciting diabetes patients directly (I dont know if its legal!). But, surely you can get 500 new patients in Los angeles every week. I know that, if its that easy, they would have already done that. Just venting! At least yesterday I got some WDC when it went down!

smart, that volume fooled me. nice trade. Me? WDC? Well.. At least I know what they do! They do well, but screwed up with Toshiba. Double edged sword.. If they had got it, it needed a lot of debt - they did very well with Sandisk debt. But, now they are OK with nand supplies with no debt. They pay good div too (50c/share/qtr). I need some positive cash flow to compensate for the money stuck here with mnkd :-(

I sold half of my (small stake) at 3.82 for a profit late yesterday, so today I feel (so far) like a stable genius. I'm only kicking myself because I almost purchased additional shares at the start of the week, feeling it was about time for another 'pump and dump' move. But I wasn't willing to invest based on a 'feeling'.

But that's what MNKD is all about. I, I'm hooked on a feelin' High on believin' I got it bad for MNKD, but I don't need a cure I'll just stay addicted and hope I can endure www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2lEO7vaozo

When a company's shares rocket on huge volume like MNKD's did yesterday, isn't it usual for the company to issue a statement? Even if the statement is 'I know nothing'? Sort of weird to hear absolutely nothing. youtu.be/UmzsWxPLIOo
