Re: Could Someone Research This Angle
[ QUOTE ]
A small company that has a lot of its eggs in one basket is being severely distracted by a patent infringement lawsuit and goes on to win the case. Either as a plaintiff or defendant. Obviously the stock goes up when it wins. [/ QUOTE ] This is, of course, an untrue assumption.

[/ QUOTE ] rofl_copter at your furious backpedaling. "Of course it goes up." Game, set, match. Even if 4 went up for every 1 that dropped, if it went +10, +10, -40, +10, +10, there's no 'alpha' there.

Re: Could Someone Research This Angle
DS,
If Naj won't take all of your square action, I'd like a piece also. Please try not to rephrase all future statements into entirely different ideas than originals. K thx

Re: Could Someone Research This Angle
i may be missing the forest for teh trees here but in what scenario would a small business stock not go up in the situation described by DS?? aka, a small company has a valueable idea that is huge to the company and it is either defending or prosecuting that idea in court. eventually the verdict comes out in favor of the small company... what would cause the price of that company's stock to drop as a direct result of the favorable ruling??

Phase III results on average result in a drop in share price.
