Im all about Pharam companies because this is my specialty.

About a year ago i recommended GILD to everyone on here when it was 60$ a share, now its trading btw 106-116$ a share.

For the last year or so i have been watching ICPT and their new drug for treatment of Fatty liver disease. Their stock been fluctuating btw 120-450$. Today the stock tumbled after they published their phase two clinical trial in Lancet and i picked up more shares at 200$. At the end of the publication one sentence made the stock tank """Obeticholic acid improved the histological features of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, but its long-term benefits and safety need further clarification""
unfortunately that's how science work
I believe this stock has a massive upside to 600-800$ a share.
Good opportunity for fellow investors
good luck to all

You think RMTI gets the final approval from the FDA for Triferic? This is assuming you know what I'm talking about.

V , LO , TTWO, 2015 AAPL calls, and SRPT are all I have in my fun money self managed portfolio (401k/Roth are all indexed)

I'd love to hear your opinion on SRPT, I bought it at about 15 and it's been frustrating seeing Etep approval delayed again and again....

I am curious about RMTI as well. I have been following them for about a year. They seem to have some shady analysts that come out and hammer them every time the stock starts to climb.

MSFT, BAC, T, KO, EXXI, VWO, VUG, VYM. Pretty boring but I don't like a lot of action. Slow and steady.

I don't have $3,000 (I'm guessing there's a 3k minimum on VTSMX).

I like the .18 expense ration on VTIVX, but I don't know what the VTSMX expense ration is.

VTSMX is 0.17%. Its admiral share counterpart VTSAX is 0.05%.

XOM, ATVI, RKUS, VUG, AFL, VNR, DIS, BKS, FCX, PSEC

FCX is a new addition this week. RKUS I buy in any time it goes below 9.

In IT and think RKUS is a solid long term even though it's been super volatile.

Was doing pretty well until oil crapped....

i probably have too many holdings, and too much oil. not really worried long term though. i had small positions in PG, PM and Pep as well but sold them to buy more oil, i just couldn't resist.

I don't think you have too many positions. As long as you are diversified well into companies with long solid histories, I think you are safe. I have read that 50 is a good number of companies for your portfolio.

KRFT

The rest is a 70/30 split between VTSAX and VTIAX

FCX is spread across the commodity market with gold, copper mining operations. They are also involved in some oil and iron operations. I personally like the fact that they are diversified across commodities. They have a good dividend. 75% dividend growth over 5 years. Under 20 they are a steal in my book.
