Port 24

Well, I'm back to my old bad habits, and only posting about the Port. I do have a writeup from the Dendreon conference call last night, that I will post tomorrow.

Portfolio 24
300 Dendreon and 1000 RMTI were called away from me last Friday. I bought 4000 GNVC today, at $2.42. Cash on hand now $10,058, and the Port is worth 125,144.

I am now as excited about GenVec as I was about Dendreon. In my real life IRA, I am about 50/50 in these two, with just a few others in small amounts. Both will have large events in the next 5 to 9 weeks.

GNVC may not, and probably will not, have a statistically significant result from the upcoming interim look. However, it should let us see how it will pan out. Having an entry even here in the $2s will look really good in 2 years, if you have that kind of a time horizon. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that before results are announced, we'll see $3.25 or $3.50 in this stock, giving you a 33 to 50% return in a month. I bought 1000 shares in my Roth today, in fact, at $2.41, with such an aim in mind.

Regards,
Trond
