Fingers and everything else crossed.

I was recently lucky enough to have a very long chat to someone who has a very intimate knowledge of the inner and outer workings of Anatara. His views on past and present chairmen, directors, CEO's and scientists was very interesting. However, the real reason Zoetis handed back the license shocked me. And it made me realise that there are a lot of things that poor old common-man plebs like me never know about and so we quite often get taken for a ride.
It was also explained to me why we won't be having a CR anytime soon, which has always been my biggest fear. At least, not unless we get some sensational news and real soon. Then a CR may be on the cards. I would say the next month is crucial to the well-being of this company. There seems to be a lot of confidence within the company at the moment that our poultry product may provide the good news that we so desperately need. I only hope it is not misplaced confidence.
I cannot believe the spike in our share price today. Where did that come from? I am really, really hoping that someone has some really good intel on either the poultry product or the progression of the clinical trials. Maybe this will be the turnaround we not only want, but desperately need.
PS. Did anyone else see that little article in today's West Australian newspaper about the Chinese scientists developing a treatment for IBD using gold? They state that it is not a cure. They gave medicine made from ultra-fine particles of gold to mice with IBD and found that it immediately reduced inflammation in intestines and prevented it from returning. Well, I guess that is great news for rich mice. I just hope the fact that our product treats 3 problems related to IBD will eventually have humans spending their hard earned with us.
