As already answered, it's a gamble. One reason might be as a hedge. You don't want to sell all your holdings but you think the market may fall. I made a bit of coin in TZA in March. But then lost it and more because I held on too long. But, and this is just mental, having a small amount in it helped me relax as our other investments sank. We still lost money with everyone else, but at least that gamble paid off at first. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I like this approach. I think the mental part of investing is half or more of it. What is the old Yogi Berra quote? Anyway, having a small amount of a contrarian investment in your portfolio will not really do that much to offset your 98% of "normal" stocks, but if holding it makes you feel a little better and less panic when the market dips, I think it's worth the overall loss. You'll recoup that amount by not selling in dips. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They have another like 1.3B authorized or something along those lines (and they will be added to float If this stock rises). Personally, I feel $10 is a stretch. If the inhaler works, maybe, but even then idk. I suspect that a big pharma would step in at maybe like $15B ($5-$6 a share if they dilute). If (and big if) the drug is the real deal, intravenously, prob $3-$4, the inhaler would make the pie in sky $10 number a long shot, but possible. Personally, I’m holding what I have left and I think $4-$5 is my hope if the drug saves 90% of critical patients. Also, and this is the best advice you’ll find on this stock. Enable the Swiss exchange. Hold half in the US and half in the Swiss, you’ll be able to react to anything 11 hours out of the day. You basically get a head start on America. These Yahoo idiots have no idea what I’m even saying when I recommend this, but in the event of bad news overnight, could save you a ton on a sell off. Could also get in quicker on that side if you see something positive here. At the very least, you want that exchange enabled. I still only own the Swiss side, but tomorrow while both exchanges are open I’m going to put that in play. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The very first bullet point in the article posted and told that “it rings true today” from 2014 highlights a $13B debt load. You know what the debt load is today? $2B. So what was said is factually a lie (indisputable), so that was a liar telling lies And with my gains on that stock, I’m passionate about it. There are a handful of posters in this thread that I really would’ve loved to get in on this at the start, under 4 cents. By Sunday night on 8/2 I had more research on NeuroRX and Relief than any human on Earth. My friends who I gave it too have basically offered me their wives. I’m salty that I couldn’t get in here and pass this off to others at that point for stating facts. And that undeserved suspension was the biggest blunder in this forum’s history. Everyone would’ve made $10k, everyone, some would prob be up in the $100s as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
