I believe it could have clinical benefits with less side effects than competing drugs. With people dying, isn't this what we want? Not only that, but we can make money in doing so.
I fully understand the skepticism, there isn't a single poster here who wouldn't vote NP right out if we were on the board. This isn't a Yahoo message board, we're all smart successful adults. We see the potential for major clinical benefits here and those are supported by renowned doctors at very reputable institutions with first hand experience administering the drug in life and death situations. Furthermore, I agree with Dr. Patterson's take; this is the perfect drug with its MOA to stockpile for a frontline defense against an unknown pathogen.
I've state my theory before, NP is an idiot, a hustler, a used car salesman... He most likely had no clue what Pro 140 was when they bought it (nor do I have any idea how we wound up as CEO... I should probably dig into that, maybe you know how?). Nonetheless, he is one lucky idiot who stepped into a pile of ####. A drug that could have major clinical benefits, the MOA makes tons of sense. If their severe trial shows benefit (and I believe it will), this stock goes to $20-$25, imo. At that juncture, being a real company, I believe we'll get a shakeup and bring in real leadership. I agree with your cult like take on the stock, but I feel it's because a lot of the smarter investors can weed through the NP nonsense and see the forest for the trees. Also, I'm curious, what type of outcome do you anticipate from their severe trial?
