RE: Regrets.. Richard, I have a few..1 May 2021 12:09
The presentation yesterday was that of a normal small biotech describing what they have done, what the issues are and what they are planning to do next, in some detail.
I was overexposed at some point, not in a way that it would make any difference to my life if this flopped, but enough to be upset that they did not seem to do what made sense to me combined with the company often offering soundbites instead of actual updates.
This isn't the first (or the 12th) time I see a sort of "melodramatic letter" from an investor to a ceo, so you are not alone. But, in my view one mistake was RM building a sort of casual relationship with private investors and the other is private investors thinking that it is OK to emotionally attach to company and ceo.
Yesterday perhaps it was a sign of maturity for the company, hopefully not an one off. Perhaps it is time for you to take a step back from this attachment and see it as it is, a small company trying to do something very difficult which was probably made even more difficult because of mistakes of the past, including the ones that you apparently asking the company to repeat.
