I think that there's a lot of spewing going on here.
The fact remains that there is going to be a deal for 201. Getting in a lather over the upfront payment, or TA, to me, is missing the point.
As an investor or trader, you have to ask yourself whether you want to make money. There's a better heads-up here, than in any 100M+ MCap floated biotech, that the SP will materially rise, at some stage, over the next few weeks. The fact that VAL is water-tight gives me slight pleasure in seeing who can guess the trading ranges, and those who want to make a few TA/prediction-related sheets in the interim. Different strokes for different folks. Do you risk being "out", or are you going to avoid a stomach ulcer and stay "in". Everyone seems a little nervous. Me; I'm relaxed.
Hopefully by December, the SP will have changed. We should have a proven strategy and some revenue. But with that, I can't say that I'll be disappointed that it is no longer purely a ST traders share.
Ultimately, the SP should reflect 1. Confidence around the name of the partner, and justification/demonstration of the strategy (can't be underestimated); 2. A percentage of any total package; experience tells me 40%, but this is VAL, so you ever know for sure; 3. The upfront payment.
IME, I think that the above will be the order of priority for bigger LT investors, proper, and, most notably, IIs.
I've never barrier traded, but don't castigate those who do. But what I would say is that there are people on here, who are purposefully scaring new and less experienced investors with hokus pokus, because they are trying to buy a lot of shares at the lowest possible value. They need to take a good long hard look at themselves.
I don't want to dish out any advice, but for those in the former category; ask yourselves if you want to make an informed investment decision, based around what you’ve been told by the BOD themselves; please don't panic about the very short-term movements.
Many newer investors have come to VAL and thoroughly researched, for themselves, the risk:benefit ratios. They've gotten to know the IP, the management, and taken a position. The last thing they need is a bunch of d!cck*eads, who again, should know better, playing their own agenda. It's shameful. As far as I’m concerned, come the deal, you can shove your candlesticks where the sun no longer shines.
