Well now! . . . hasn't Potted been saying all along that JM has just about HYPED Alnylam "as far as he can go!" . . . with the PROMISE and expectations of "dream-like" DEALS! . . . well . . . REALITY has just set in! . . . and to the surprise of the Alnyl;am Dream Team. . . the big DEALS are NOT coming! . . . oh! . . . Potted knows the "prepared text" . . . it's just a DELAY! . . . for another year!
. . . from the ALNY cc . . . "Regarding our goal of two or more new major partnerships in 2009, we will remain focused on completing the right alliances with the right partners. ( get ready for the thrusting KNIFE! ) . . . While multiple discussions remain ongoing with potential bio-tech and pharmaceutical partners, we now believe that the timing for achievement of this goal could extend beyond year end.”

Well. . . Potted will give some advice for JM . . . get working on RNAi drug DELIVERY! . . . and KEEP QUIET about upcoming phantom DEALS! . . . as we all know that those DEALS will NOT HAPPEN without some NOTED progress on RNAi drug DELIVERY! . . . so there you have it! (Potted now wonders if the Alnylam stock will DROP to Potted's $10 to $12 prediction! . . . will be interesting tomorrow! )

And Potted really can't say much more . . . because members of the "Dream Team" are VOCAL enough . . . ( from the ALNY IV Board )

BioKing . . . "If JM backs off on the 2 deals by years end and especially if he is counting today's pr as one of them. He better step up to the plate or the shorts will be the ones hitting the home run."

Klip . . . "JM completely botched the guidance on deals for this year and had no business painting a rosy picture for so long."

Inoseit . . . "I knew the window was closing when we did not get a platform deal in the last several days. The shorts will lean harder than ever and this company better man-up."

Bigbonesmagoo . . . "Everything else looks good in the release but we now have a credibility issue ( YA THINK!??? ) . . . that we did not have prior to continually stating we were on track for two deals this year. I suppose it is a buying opportunity if the shorts take the wood to the stock. . . AND THE "BUYING OPPORTUNITIES" NEVER CEASE AT ALNYLAM! - - Potted!

Oh my stars! . . . just take a deep breath . . . and . . .

Go to the Head-of-the-Class with ISIS!
