Two ways to think about time in biotech :

There's calendar time and then there's value-inflection time.

According to many involved in the biopharma space, the combination of private investors’ “dry power” combined with pharma’s US$1.4 Trillion in M&A deal-making capcity sets the stage for an electric year.


  • Record levels of dealmaking Firepower are available in the life sciences sector, with biopharma alone commanding more than US$1.4 trillion at the beginning of December 2022.

An extreamly static trading day today. Chasing a few cents either way. both NAS & TSX low volume. once again , an early day dip, met by recovery/ support. Still back to the investor presentation & web site. I covered every single branch if the Oncolytics biotec web site. The only thing missing is the statement about partnering for both MBc & Panc with one company. They do say  in ...more

@itntdf. No. The post was somewhat tongue in cheek. I have been listening to Hoffman. My conclusion from listening to him is Know That You Know Nothing, and I have believed that for a while now anyway. Watching this company for a number of years has been a tough mental experiment. The result is not yet known. But I suppose that the hopeful figure I mentioned was support for Noteable's ...more
