Stem cell stocks - wow

Quote from options2001:

just bringing this old thread up when everyone was ripping me for buying stem cell stocks. i sold out majority when it popped last time and jumped in when they tanked. now iam holding with a stop losss order. I hope some one benefited when i alerted everyone good 2 months before this pop.

I bought 20 GERN Feb 7.50 calls in December for .12, sold them yesterday for .65, if I had the balls to hold on or set a higher limit order I could have got 1.75! But 500% is cool :>)

I also bought a bunch of Mar 7.50s on Thursday, just in time. Made a nice profit in the early AM. I checked back a few hours later and saw that we were above 30M traded so I got back in, all-in and will stay in until we break Friday's high, then I will scale out, don't want to get caught in what may be a big dump, like someone said earlier in the thread, you never know when that dump will happen so be careful!

But also I'm with you on holding these if you can handle the price swings. I'm too short-term for that and like to keep money flowing liquid. Well...if I had an extra 50 to 100K I may do the buy and hold...though once these get run up higher over time they can experience one of those wicked "bio-drops" on bad news...hhmmm...still be careful!

I just loaded up on stem cell stocks. The two that iam familiar with are stem, and astm. Last time I believe in 2005 there was lots of talk about making stem cell research legal these two stock went up 5x. With congress firmly democratic and obama in control they have to legalize stem cells. These stocks already are exploding to the upside. I just got in today and am pissed I didnt think about it earlier.

I dont think its too late to get in. Iam expecting minimum 200% return on these stocks. Iam gonna hold for about 6 months and will not be shaken out. Good luck to others who want to jump in on this awsome oppurtunity. Iam still researching other companies who are involved with stem cell reasearch and see if i shoulld buy them also

these stocks are just crap. the news you where waiting for came out and almost back on the lows now. these are not investments, just speculative POS
 
Hey,
Figured i would post that i also doubled my investment, bought at the low and then placed a stop and got out at the start of the decline. Thanks for the advice:)

(I know they were speculative so didnt invest much)

Thats how you get rich, nice call.

I learned something from you. At the risk of being flamed, the big boys will shake you out but that doesn't mean for the long term you're position is wrong.

thanks
