Finally got into some Ford below $6.

I guess it'd be a good time to push some pencils on refinancing or even making a large purchase happen faster than planned.

Ford has a nice run in the early 2010's but they have really stagnated the past 4 years holy hell.

I'm bag holding on Ford in at just over $6. Hoping they soar when this blows over and they get good tailwinds with the release of the Bronco and E-F150, Mach-E Mustang, etc.

If they don't, the CEO has to go.

If Ford doesn't cut their dividend, you are in great shape.

Supposedly they have been showing off a truck smaller than the current ranger which has been garnering praise from the dealerships. It sounds like an actual successor to the previous ranger, and not the pile of junk currently out there. That might be what turns the tables for them. The baby bronco ain't it, and they priced the Mach - E way too high to compete with Tesla.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 09, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Algernon Pharmaceuticals Inc. (CSE: AGN) (FRANKFURT: AGW) (OTCQB: AGNPF) (the “Company” or “Algernon”) a clinical stage pharmaceutical development company is pleased to announce that it has made the decision to begin production of NP-120 (Ifenprodil) with a new injectable and long acting oral release formulation, in order to be prepared for new US clinical trials for COVID-19 (coronavirus) and acute lung injury (ALI).

The decision was made after a recent independent study found that Ifenprodil significantly reduced ALI and improved survivability in an animal study with Asian H5N1 infected mice by 40%. Asian H5N1 is the most lethal form of influenza known to date with an over 50% mortality rate. This compelling data, generated via a genome wide RNAi interference approach, that lead the investigators to the identification of Ifenprodil, an NMDA receptor antagonist, has been a major contributing factor in the Company’s decision.

The Company is in negotiations with a number of manufacturers and will be announcing more details on its decision shortly.

“The Company believes strongly in the potential of Ifenprodil to treat patients who have a severe acute lung injury, including people who have various forms of respiratory infections including COVID-19 (coronavirus) and influenza,” said Christopher J. Moreau CEO of Algernon Pharmaceuticals.

Algernon has filed new intellectual property rights for NP-120 (Ifenprodil) for the treatment of respiratory diseases.

About NP-120 (Ifenprodil)

NP-120 (Ifenprodil) is an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NDMA) receptor glutamate receptor antagonist specifically targeting the NMDA-type subunit 2B (Glu2NB). Ifenprodil also exhibits agonist activity for the Sigma-1 receptor, a chaperone protein up-regulated during endoplasmic reticulum stress. Although the anti-fibrotic activity of Ifenprodil in IPF is not known, recent studies have suggested a link between both receptors and pathways associated with fibrosis.

Glutamate (Glu) is the main excitatory neurotransmitter which acts on glutamate receptors in the central nervous system (CNS) but overactivation of these receptors can cause several damages to neural cells including death. Recent studies show that the glutamate agonist N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) can trigger acute lung injury (ALI). ALI is a direct and indirect injury to alveolar epithelial cells and capillary endothelial cell, causing diffuse pulmonary interstitial and alveolar edema and acute hypoxic respiration failure. ALI is characterized by reduced lung volume and compliance, and imbalance of the ventilation/perfusion ratio, inducing hypoxemia and respiratory distress and its severe stage (oxygen index <200) known as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). (1) Furthermore, pathological findings show that 64% of ARDS patients may have pulmonary fibrosis during convalescence (2).

NP-120 (Ifenprodil - brand name Cerocal) was initially developed by Sanofi in the 1990s in the French and Japanese markets for the treatment of circulatory disorders. The drug is genericized and sold in Japan.

Mach-E is Ugly As F***. Won't help matters either.

I was really digging it, then they showed off the price and I was like...uhhh...it's still a ford.

Why on earth did they call it a Mustang? That's not a Mustang.

So smarter than me CP investors, which stock should I pickup from the 3:

Amazon
TESLA
TEVA

I don't know much about TEVA, but I think TESLA has competition and future commoditization, whereas Amazon is hard to compete with. The barrier to entry is almost impossible now.
