Another payday in the making for Al Gore. His venture capital firm is heavily invested in swine flu vaccines as well as Global warming money making schemes. Wow, what a week for Al, huh? And look who heâs connected with this time; Donald Rumsfeld.)

The swine flu outbreak is likely to benefit one of the most prolific and successful venture capital firms in the United States: Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Thomson Reuters Private Equity Week reported on Friday.
Shares of the two public companies in the firmâs portfolio of eight Pandemic and Bio Defense companies â BioCryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX.O) and Novavax (NVAX.O) â jumped Friday on news that the swine flu killed a reported 60 people in Mexico and has infected people in the United States.
The World Health Organization said the virus appears to be susceptible to Rocheâs (ROG.VX) flu drug Tamiflu, also known as oseltamivir, but not to older flu drugs such as amantadine.

âRummy (Donald Rumsfeld) was Chair of the Board of Directors at Gilead Sciences until named to the Bush cabinet and, like [Vice President Dick] Cheney, still has ties that bind to the âold company.â Now isnât it an âamazing coincidenceâ that the drug Tamiflu patented by Gilead Sciences is being pushed by the National Institutes of Allergies and Infectious Diseases as the NUMBER ONE choice for flu...

Here is a pure spec play for ya; buy BAX 20 min. after open, sell 20 min. before close. (4-27-09)
I think this thread encapsulates why most traders lose money.
You waited until TODAY to get a list of swine flu stocks? You should have been buying Friday.. stocks like NVAX went up 75% already, thanks though, I'll sell 1/4 of my position to you.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I'm certainly not going to chase stocks like NVAX, up 138%, or GNBT, up 44% but I still believe other "Swine Flu" stocks still have a lot more upside. Why? Because most traders/investors were to busy reading through Geitner's stress test to notice these little piss ant penny stocks surging on huge volume.
I think it is fair to say that most people, traders/investors included, did not find out about the outbreak until today, Sunday, and because of that on Monday "Swine Flu" stocks should go up. Would any one here disagree that these stocks won't pop tomorrow, I'd like to hear your bear side of the arguement?
This is why I'm buying DVAX tomorow, it's "only" up 23%. It put in a nice "V" pattern after a long downtrend, followed by what looks like a cup-and-handle pattern (saucer pattern). It trades 247k on average.

Short EWW if you can borrow the stock. Buy puts if you can't.
