Bird Flu Update

This piece of news from Monday has investment ramifications written all over it:

New strain of bird flu found in China

Now read this from a couple of weeks ago:

Governments still dithering on bird flu
A third of countries haven't pinned down vaccine plans, study finds


It was about nine months ago when we had a bona fide run on bird flu stocks. From the most speculative penny stocks (NNVC) to blue chip pharmaceuticals (SNY) and everything in-between, profits were fast and furious. Last March I posted this list of potential bird flu plays. For playing the sector going into flu season, any combination thereof would be a good start and for what its worth, the list still represents a compilation of my favorite bird flu stock plays, starting with NVAX and NNVC, which one of you pointed out in a comment under my previous blog.

    I prefer to be a bit more optimistic and buy Alcor Cryogenic Freezing.

    You guys are comical with this NNVC thing. It is a scam. The stock is going to zero. Sell it while there is still a bid side. It is a lot easier than going through the process of declaring a stock worthless with your broker.

    Allan,

    What's up with this NNVC thing ... still straight down. Do you still hold/own/buy more? Any new info?

  6. Holly, I have to admit that my patience is wearing thin as well on NNVC's management...they promised an SEC filing over a year ago and still no action...having been one for so many years, I know that attorneys can be blamed for a lot of delays, but this is already well beyond the blame game. NNVC's credibility is on the line here, I jope they are aware of it.

    NNVC released a statement today, their stock should be performing better than it is now, they are at a loss as to why it does not climb as much.

    Also, a bird flu expert has been nominated to head the WHO:

    At a loss, huh? How about no revenues, no product, no potential product, and no credibility. As year end tax loss selling accelerates NNVC will very politely head to $0.00.
