    Everybody jumping on the bandwagon again. Up 16+% since I bot yesterday. Have sell day-order in at today's high 10.68. I'll get back in lower later. Shoot, it's just taking a one-day $3,000 profit and running.

    Here's the scoop: Friday, March 16, 11:08 AM Shares of Amarin (AMRN +12.2%) soar after the USPTO updates its transaction history for one of the company's patents to read in a more positive light. At least part of the rise in Amarin's share price can also be attributed to ongoing M&A chatter kicked off earlier this week. Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]
    Thursday, March 15, 12:26 PM Sparking gains in Irish biotech firm Amarin (AMRN +8.6%) is a Leerink Swann note speculating that "patent progress could solidify Amarin as a prime takeout candidate given the blockbuster potential for [heart-drug candidate] AMR-101." The firm had earlier said AMRN was moving toward winning its quest for U.S. patent protection for AMR-101. Comment! [Healthcare, M&A, On the Move]
    Friday, March 9, 11:01 AM While the good news for investors of Amarin (AMRN +1.1%) is that development on its experimental heart drug derived from fish oil is churning right along, the bad news is that the USPTO can't keep up with the pace to help the company keep generic versions at bay. Leerink Swann predicts the patent office will eventually grant approval after a lengthy appeals process, as it maintains an Outperformance rating and $25 price target on the biotech firm. 1 Comment [On the Move, Healthcare]

        It is hard to find the Truth when you start your search with a preconceived notion of what the Truth will be.

                Was there something in the price action that caused you to change your mind or was it that ole female prerogative?

                  Dog, I was locking in profits. This thing is going to continue to go up a few more days, I think. The premarket bid is currently 10.80. If they see allowance of the patent app '598, that is expected momentarily, that is good news for possible takeover. PFE's Lipitor is a wash now, the Amarin fish-oil AMR-101 could be a blockbuster because it lowers cholesterol but also lowers triglycerides, which Lipitor doesn't do. These stocks are always a crap shoot. But I lost a lot on AMRN in 2011 that I would like to begin to get back.

                  $AMRN will today be the day to see the allowance notice for patent application -598? getting real close, and will not surprise me one bit.

                      Duh! '598 patent app. allowed. Of course, it's "count Tuesday" at the PTO! The once a month the individual Examiners tally up the total action "counts" against budget and hope for bonuses! This Examiner allowed the patent app. today to boost his "count." Neat.

                      Speaking of BONUS, AMRN up 14% on the news! Have a sell order in at 12.45. Currently 11.93 (+14% from where I bot it late Fri).

                        No more oinks. Sold AMRN @ 11.94 for another 14+% in 3 trading days, a quick $5,000+

                          Gotta love it when the markets wants to fill your pockets.

                            Bats

                            Now here's a first! (for me anyway) How did this happen??
                            BATS priced its IPO yesterday at 16.00. It hasn't yet begun trading on the open market. I placed two orders before the open today at 16.97. Both just filled at 15.25! Does this mean it's undersubscribed at 16? What hidden market did I buy this on? Any ideas?

                              River,
                              At 11:13 I still see no trades. Looks like you got a heck of a bargain. The market rarely giveth like that.
