I won't even look at it again !! Someone should suggest to KBIO longs to sell and buy MNKD. Not sure they'll be able to buy many MNKD shares even if they liquidated all of their KBIO holdings. Market cap as $23.59 is less than $100 million. Company may be worth less than a few shares of MNKD by the time trading resumes. Always good when folks get what they deserve. If the Gov can prove that illegal gains were used to buy KBIO shares, then KBIO is in huge trouble and will end up back where they started and have to close their doors. |

Unfortunately, Martin's date with Karma doesn't change anything with Mannkind.

Let's hope he got so scared he peed and pooped in his pants and that was caught on camera as well. I also hope he turns and gives all the names of those who helped him with his fraud and hopefully we hear about Adam F Cramer getting arrested as well in the near future. Both are scumbags and need to get corn holed 5 or 6 times a day in prison.

Guys, you have to know that the ads you see are based on your browsing history. Really? That would explain why I keep seeing Beano ads. |

This guy would be a good candidate. He at least knows how to build shareholder value!  |

 I would think Sanofi is giving its input as to who should be Mannkind next CEO

you are right. She is. But do you really think the TV station just came up with this on their own? Most likely not. They probably found a place that prescribed it after getting something from Sanofi's marketing team. Maybe instead of having the spokeswoman they wanted to do a more original piece. They probably got info about a pharmacy that was prescribing it and talked with the Pharmacist who then said she'd contact someone who was using it and there you have it. Your 4 min piece. It's all very much carefully planned seeded by Sanofi's marketing team. I am not against this but it you have to understand it's not as simple or organic as that TV station getting the idea internally. That is unless someone at the station is on it and pitched it. But we'll never know. The news piece has you and I talking about it. That's all I expect from it, a little more public awareness to get more people talking. I believe I mentioned that's the problem; It will have investors talking about it but not diabetics. That's the wrong demographic to be targeting, don't you think? |

Boy you couldn't be more wrong. How do you think all of these TV stations are getting this story? The marketing company Sanofi is using is pitching this "health" story to them and some are biting. This is marketing disguised as news which costs Sanofi nothing as it is the tv stations that produce the segment. How do I know this? I use to work in tv news and saw this all the time. And just as I rarely tell my wife, "See, I told you I was correct!" I agree with you a 100% that the recent online news links are marketing ads. The SNY employee in the maroon shirt is apart of a marketing ad. I went through those commercials and compared them. I was looking to see if it was pre recorded and if the reporter would break, ask her question, and then go back to the women in the maroon shirt from SNY and she would respond. All of those commercials were recorded with each reporter as she responded differently to all of the reporters questions. I doubt those were ever on TV. This IMO feels like a real news report. This young women is obviously a patient (t1 diabetic) using Afrezza with a pharmacist from Promedica. I am pretty sure a marketing ad cannot state that Afrezza works quicker then Humalog. Only a patient can currently make that claim. The pharmacist checks out and works in Toldeo Ohio at Promedica. If you search the pharmacist you will see this is not the first time she is on channel 7 speaking about diabetes. you are right. She is. But do you really think the TV station just came up with this on their own? Most likely not. They probably found a place that prescribed it after getting something from Sanofi's marketing team.

But how do you know for sure? I am sure that is what they are hoping. I'd think a lot of retired T2s might now be on their computers or at the local bar/restaurant for early bird drink/dinner specials. I think the direct mailing to targeted diabetics is the best hope Sanofi has right now. I think you are right about the direct mailing! I live in a town in CA with a lot of families. They watch the news and then sit down for dinner. (At least during the week.). I PT seniors so I know their habits. They are overweight and only 3 out of 10 even have an iphone. Let's say you are right and many do watch the news at 5pm and like those you know are over weight or not in the best of health. How motivated do you think they are after seeing such a segment on inhaled insulin are they going to "motivate" themselves to call their doctor, make an appointment to see if they can get Afrezza? And let's say some do. What awaits them is a doctor who most likely knows nothing about Afrezza and won't prescribe it because the doc feels his patient is "under control." And even in the remote chance the doc does prescribe Afrezza, what hoops will the older T2 diabetic have to jump through to get his insurance to cover it? So how many elder T2s will have the mental and physical fortitude to do all of that? My guess, less than 5%. |

this aired at 5pm I believe. So who exactly is watching local news at 5 pm on a weekday? What demographic? And is that demographic going to really go out of their way to try Afrezza? These are just logical questions to ask that I think I know the answer to. And if my answers are right, then these news spots are only going to play well to people who post on MNKD message boards. And as I tell my wife routinely, "dear, that is just my opinion. You are free to disagree as always." Its the news its not a marketing ad. Boy you couldn't be more wrong. How do you think all of these TV stations are getting this story? The marketing company Sanofi is using is pitching this "health" story to them and some are biting.

It should become available for anyone to read soon. I believe SA keeps it private for a week for paying members.

yep were are mushrooms, kept in the dark all day and then they give us ____ to eat.
Really, the internet has enabled fraud on a whole new bigger scale and if you don't believe me just look at all those new million dollar shoeboxes in the Manhattan skyline. That is not legitimate money for the most part, how could it be? I give up, they win for now but I won't sell (not that it matters when HFs can sell single shares back and forth and the price is therefore meaningless). The Swiss... hmm! I ran into one in New Zealand while vacationing once.. he said, 'we have the banking industry' I never really thought of it as an industry but they do make money don't they. Maybe you should eat a couple of them. Might make the days go by a little better!!! Or make you need a new liver. |

Something is odd with MannKind's share price, it is acting as if it is going bankrupt. My question is: would this require a filing with the SEC if that was the case? If Al is going bankrupt, he will take a lot of people along for the ride. I doubt it. But look at this, www.google.com/trends/explore#q=%2Fm%2F02v_g4j&date=now%207-d&cmpt=q&tz=Etc%2FGMT%2B5Why exactly are the Swiss so interested here? Is there some money laundering in progress, or legitimate banking of some kind? Pardon my cynicism but there is something very dark going on here. Many of the hedge funds have their proxy servers in Switzerland and that is where all the FUDSTERS traffic comes from. |
