At the FDA's suggestion, CYDY is seeking a meeting to discuss breakthrough status for its breast cancer treatment.

What’s the difference between fast track and breakthrough therapy? How is it different than before? I don’t know enough about all the designations and what they mean. I honestly can’t keep track of it all. The Covid-19 stuff is pretty clear in terms of phases, but this isn’t.

As I understand it:

Breakthrough means that your trial(s) have shown such promising results that you ask the FDA to consider approving the treatment now.

Fast track means that the FDA will consider your drug with shorter delays than normal.

 
Boeing getting interesting again where it is.  I think it can still go lower, but it's value.

Also love Delta soon

I bought BA (Boeing) back when it was in the mid $90s.  Getting that stock is a score. From my understanding DAL is the best choice from the rest.

Bingo.  I bought BA in the 90s, sold at 150, just saw it coming back down.  But as it approaches 100 again -- I'm not sure where the right point is -- it becomes incredible value again. 

Love DAL too.

I sold my Boeing at 152 I think. I’d be back in at a 100. Not sure it gets there.

Agreed, but it seems like a few of these will go under sooner than later?

Do the small guys get bail outs?

Selling at 150 short is like selling ~$125 long right?  ($60 profit - 40% taxes ish?)

eta - I'll wait the year and bet the over.

To those pushing Boeing, they have much bigger issues than just a temporary dip in air travel.

As if the 737 Max issues haven't been enough, they have issues with a new K-47 tanker plane now as well. 

IMO Boeing can't get out of their own way right now, and I'm not sure Id buy a plane from them... I'm guessing folks who buy planes are probably a little gun shy too.

In theory, breakthrough designation is the fast pass for fda interactions.

from https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/food-and-drug-administration-safety-and-innovation-act-fdasia/frequently-asked-questions-breakthrough-therapies

Breakthrough therapy designation is intended to expedite the development and review of drugs for serious or life-threatening conditions. The criteria for breakthrough therapy designation require preliminary clinical evidence that demonstrates the drug may have substantial improvement on at least one clinically significant endpoint over available therapy.

A breakthrough therapy designation conveys all of the fast track program features (see below for more details on fast track designation), more intensive FDA guidance on an efficient drug development program, an organizational commitment involving senior managers, and eligibility for rolling review and priority review. 

Fast Track Designation: Fast track designation is intended to facilitate the development and expedite the review of drugs to treat serious conditions and fill an unmet medical need. Designation may be granted on the basis of preclinical data. A sponsor of a drug that receives fast track designation will typically have more frequent interactions with FDA during drug development. In addition, products that have been designated as fast track can obtain rolling review.

 
People selling short right now.. what is that strategy like in your head?

CYDY seems a short sell game, but when you buy into companies like Boeing and MGM and Marriott and DIS and DAL... these are long plays right?

Boeing has a contract with the military that Isn’t going anywhere. I missed on buying them but that contract will keep them relevant.

 
Generic drug names are often difficult to pronounce, this is pretty much by design. Both generic and brand names for drugs are proposed by the inventor and are approved by the fda. While there are rules for generic drug names, the drug companies intend to make the pronunciation difficult, so the easier brand name becomes the term typically used.

atorvastatin => Lipitor 

Sildenafil => viagra

In MAR at 53 out at 87 in 9 days.

In DAL at 25 out at 32 in 9 days

IN UAL 18.9 out at 30 in 2 days

In SAVE 8.04 out at 13.75 in 4 days

In LOW 66 out at 84 in 6 days

I didn't mess with BA, but many here made 50% in a week.

I think everything is a short play right now.  That said, any of the companies you mentioned will likely be easy double ups in 2-3 years and it would be much bette doing that than sitting on a bunch of cash at DOW30-35K

Guess I don't know ####.

Not confident to bet on short term.  Feel more comfortable committing to solid companies at 5 year lows and betting they come back 1-3 years.

The thing is they have been coming back in a week.  We'll get another chance and I'll be following your approach.  You are being very wise here so you know a lot.

 
Change in non-farm payrolls, March: -701,000 vs. -100,000 expected. OUCH

Unemployment rate, March: 4.4% vs. 3.8% expected and 3.5% in February DOUBLE OUCH.

The reference period for the March jobs report extended through the 12th of the month, meaning that the data was captured before much of the country went on lockdown in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Namely, this jobs report excludes the two-week period at the end of March that saw new unemployment claims skyrocket to a combined 9.9 million.

The market is not phased by the numbers. :lmao:   Get real.

I wonder how many on top of that are working with a salary reduction.

So we anticipate a huge run up today, correct?

 
I wonder if the govt realizes that $1200 ain't gonna cut it.

Just roll out the damn Trillion $ coin and lets get moving. The people only need ya to mint 1 to keep them running for 4 months.

I’ve been wondering when they announce May checks. Was that part of the bill or is it that the phase 4 thing they are talking about?

I missed on Boeing when it was sub 100, been watching it ever since.  This is not encouraging

Boeing offering buyouts as it projects recovery will take years
Click to expand...
Boeing doubling and tripling down on the Max 8 is also discouraging. They refuse to scrap it insisting they will "fix" it via software. Hey Boeing, nobody wants to fly on your Max 8s. Nobody wants to buy them. Unless the US props them up indefinitely or nationalizes them, Boeing is trouble.

I think we are supposed to get the checks deposited into our bank accounts around the 17th of April. Since they are behind, our 'phase 4' :lmao:  May checks that will be needed wont arrive until June.

The deficit should easily blow past 30T after this is over. But if they print the coins, that doesn't get added to the deficit. The coins are the debt. I love it. Makes me laugh.

Big beautiful platinum coins. See 'em? Right over there in that display case.  :clap:

Add to that, that at some point, we (and every other country) will no longer be able to feed its people without significantly paring down military spending. 

 
Selling off some of the cydy I picked up yesterday at 2.25 and 2.36 for a nice quick return.  Will look to acquire when it goes back down.

 
CYDY

I am becoming aware of the manipulation that's apparent in pink sheet stocks.  I will hopefully be prepared to take advantage BIGLY next time these ####ers try this with CYDY.
