As a reminder, I am long shares of ECYT.

Endocyte, the SMDC, and the future of clinical oncology...
...or the future of arthritis treatment and cardiovascular disease prevention?
Part One: The Premise
I'd like to take the time to disclaim here that I'm long Endocyte ($ECYT). I'm also ridiculously, unhealthily bullish about the prospects of this company in the next decade or two. Just so we get that out of the way: I'm going to try and make this the most fair and even-keeled assessment that I can, but be aware of my stance toward this company. Now that that's out of the way, onto the show!

The Keeping of the Record
In order for this to be the most maximal learning experience, I'm going to be adding a 'model portfolio' of what I would do if I was only going to invest in pharmaceutical companies based on the information that I've presented here, just so that I have something to keep myself intellectually honest about my efforts.
This 'model portfolio' is definitely, DEFINITELY not an exhortation to follow any of the trades/investment theses presented during my time on this blog, it's just a way for me to keep track of myself. Hopefully it'll teach me about biotech investing, without me having to actually risk a substantial amount of capital to learn the same lesson. Of course, nothing is the same as when you get to "the real deal", but I think it can still be a good developmental tool for myself. I'll also post it on here once I find a way to permalink it to the front page, so that other people can watch my progress/success/failure as it happens!
Happy Investing!

This (and the eventual model portfolio) is not a trade recommendation, or a financial recommendation of any kind.

Update on Galectin Therapeutics ($GALT):
Preclinical Trial Reassuring, if Little Else
Disclaimer: the author is no longer long shares or options of $GALT, but is considering entering a small position the next month.

Monday, Galectin Therapeutics announced the results of a small preclinical study. You can read about the results from their investor relations website. You can also click here to see my previous take on Galectin Therapeutics. There are definitely some large positives in their brief press release, along with a few questions I'm left with. Hit the jump for my take on what the preclinical trial means.
I'm Baaaaaack
Hey everyone, sorry for the complete (literal) dearth of posts in the last 3 months; med school finals and summer lab rotations started to get way too busy, and interfered with my first love: investing!
So, I'm really going to try hard to make this at least a biweekly (if not weekly) blogging foray. Tomorrow or Monday I'm going to post my thoughts on a biotech position that I'm currently in, one that I wish I had waited to enter until this week. Hopefully I can illuminate why in the upcoming post. I truly think it's a robust opportunity, for a company that I am expecting to hold for AT LEAST 5-10 years. Let's discuss.
