Product launch is difficult and can be much slower than expected (witness AMRN). There are two huge differences here for MNKD, first Sanofi's master sales force and, second, the huge short interest. We are seeing a beautiful short squeeze. What the heck! Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Looks like it was a good time. Bot then and currently up over 12%.

River, Like they sometimes say" Only invest money you can afford to lose" I was way down , but now am on top of the world.

This was written 6 weeks ago. I've followed Nate Pile for years. He's really good. It is hard to stay with some of his picks when he's down. HQL is one of his favorites. I'm up over 200% on it. He only has a few selections each year and doesn't trade much. Not exciting but very profitable. http://seekingalpha.com/article/3093...nd-and-afrezza MNKD has gone from 3.50 to 5.54 in 3 weeks.

Wow. Up over 20% now. Just read that June $5 calls..."... are now firmly in the money with two weeks remaining until expiration." GO AL!!!

River, Al Mann (MNKD) and Mark Libratore (LBMH) both have a history of building profitable companies then selling them for a fortune. Mann is nearly 90 years old and a billionnaire. Libratore is quite a bit younger and has many companies yet to start. LBMH's stock price isn't too hot right now but it pays a regular div. and has sound fundies. Maybe they'll both sell out and make me very happy.

Can't really understand why LBMH stock price isn't doing a smidge better.

Louetta, With a 5% div. and no debt I'd buy more if she'd just base out soon. See no red flags and TV ads are leading to a growing base of monthly customers.

I hear ya about the basing but I went ahead and bought at $2.48. Have this weird fear it is suddenly going to head North on me.

Louetta, I'm going to join you. We don't know if this is the bottom. I'd guess it's darn close.

I'm with you both (I hope), bidding 2.50. So far the've given me 100... Wow, 25 more. Glad I have patience.

[jiesen]

I'm in LBMH now also, at 2.51 (I don't have the patience to wait for 2.50). Just a small position for me, because I'm in it for a long-term play. I think I can get $4-6/shr for it in 1-3 years. With .20/shr in profits, $2.5 is a no-brainer entry point for this one, especially since these profits aren't going anywhere but up.

As a population, we're only going to get older, which means more C&C (colostomy bags & catheters) and thus more money for these guys (and us).
