ich möchte nur noch mal eine Aktie vorstellen die sich kurz vor einen wichtigen FDA Entscheid befindet und enormes Kurspotenzial beinhaltet.
Es handelt sich um die Firma Nutrition 21 welche ein Nahrungsergänzungsmittel für Diabetiker herstellt. In diversen Testreihen haben Sie die absolute Wirksamkeit unter Beweis gestellt. Nun muss nur noch der Ritterschlag seitens der FDA erfolgen.
Bezüglich Nutrition 21 wird das Team von Global Biotech Investing am Montag den 07.02.2005 diese Firma noch mal gründlich durchleuchten.
Wer also bereit seinem Depot einbisschen Risiko beizumischen sollte sich diese Firma mal genauer angucken und zuschlagen.
Einen Partner hat Nutrition 21 ja schon mit XL Health gefunden und ich denke, dass dieser schon kräftigst kurbelt um Chromax mit dem grünen Licht schnellst möglich unters Volk bringen zu können. Dem positiven News Flow seitens von Nutrition oder den Analysten können wir uns bei einem OK von der FDA sicher sein.
Ich denke das eine Entscheidung kommt und wir Kurse zwischen 2,50 € und 4 € sehen werden..........
Mal sehen was die Amis heute machen!
Ich denke wir werden bis Freitag kurz unter 1,6$ liegen und bei ca 1,30 €.
Dann kommt die nächste Woche da geht es noch mal heiß her und die Kurse werden hoffentlich nochmal nach oben klettern. Bei nem positiven Entscheid schießt der Kurs dann richtig nach oben und wer geschickt tradet kann ne Menge Kohle in ein paar Tagen machen.
@coldice
Die Entscheidung wurde schon mal um 90 Tage verschoben! Man kann auch sagen das sich die FDA selbst eine Gnadenfrist eingebaut hat. Nochmal kann es nicht verschoben werden. Somit besteht das einzige Risiko darin, dass die Entscheidung negativ ist. Würde dies bei den fundamentalen Daten passieren, würde ich den glauben an die Börse verlieren :o))
@ Money -> Ich muss mich korrigieren. So schnell kann es gehen. Jetzt halte ich auch 1,60$ bis Freitag nicht mehr für ausgeschlossen. Mal sehen ob das Niveau morgen hält. Es wird Gewinnmitnahmen geben, mindestens genausoviel werden morgen auf den Zug aufspringen. Wenn wir in der kommenden Woche, mit einer Startzbasis von 1,60-1,70$, eine FDA-Zustimmung erhalten, ist der Kurs sehr schnell über 2$. Da werden jetzt gute Nerven gefragt sein.
Habe noch ne News für dich und alle anderen. Im laufe dieser Woche werden die Q2 Zahlen veröffentlicht! Gekoppelt mit den Zahlen und dem FDA Entscheid brauch man auch nicht mehr über 2$ sprechen! Da ist es sinnvoller zu sagen 3 - 4$ und mehr.....
Ich denke morgen früh wird in Frankfurt die Hölle los sein! Da werden wir Kurse um die 1, 25 € sehen!
bis dann und eine gute Nacht!
Wenn es interessiert: Im US-Yahoo Forum gibt es unter NXXI eine rege und teilweise sehr interessante Dikussion zu der Aktie. Dort sind auch Presse-News abrufbar über die wir hier nicht verfügen.

Nutrition 21 Reports Reduced Losses and Increased Gross Profits with Release of Second Quarter Results
Thursday February 10, 1:30 pm ET
Company Prepares to Enter Global Diabetes Care Market and Expands Discussions with Disease Management Providers and Clinicians
PURCHASE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 10, 2005-- Nutrition 21, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXXI - News), the leading developer and marketer of chromium-based nutritional supplements, today reported the results from operations for the company's second quarter ended December 31, 2004.
Revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 totaled $3.7 million as compared to $2.3 million for the same period last year. Net loss for the quarter narrowed to $0.3 million, or ($0.01) per diluted share as compared to a net loss of $1.2 million or ($0.03) per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2004.
Year to date revenues for the period ending December 31, 2004 were $6.4 million as compared to $4.8 million for the same period last year. Net loss for the first half of fiscal 2005 was reduced to $1.5 million or ($0.04) per diluted share compared to a net loss of $2.3 million or ($0.06) per diluted share for the same period in the prior year.
Results for the second quarter and for the year to date reflect a $1 million reduction in net loss attributable to a one-time non-refundable $1 million payment received from ImmuCell Corporation. In consideration of this payment, the company waived its remaining rights to receive potential milestone and royalty payments for a majority of the animal health applications covered by its patented nisin technology.
"This was a significant quarter for our company on many fronts," commented Gail Montgomery, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nutrition 21. "While we saw a growth in our year over year ingredient revenues and gross profits, net of the one time revenue item, the bigger news relates to the achievement of several milestones during the quarter. We believe these achievements will help us to continue our positive momentum at an increasing pace. The achievements, domestically and abroad, include:
* Confirmation of the safety of chromium picolinate by The UK Food Standards Agency (FSA), an international government regulatory agency,
* Recognition by the US Congress of the potential role that chromium picolinate may play in mitigating the public health crisis associated with the increased risk of diabetes and its risk factors,
* The publication in Diabetes Care of an epidemiological study conducted by Harvard School of Public Health researchers, linking low levels of chromium with an increased risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and
* The first sale of Chromax chromium picolinate as a GRAS (generally recognized as safe) food ingredient to a leading US beverage company for inclusion in a popular consumer beverage product."
Montgomery commented further, "By far our most important second quarter milestone was the successful completion of our pivotal Diachrome study. We announced positive study results in collaboration with XL Health, a leading disease management company, in January of this year. The compelling outcomes of this study have already been submitted for consideration at key scientific meetings . We are confident that we will have an opportunity to present our findings at one or more of these meetings before the close of our fiscal year. Presentation at these meetings represents a critical objective for our company. The presentations allow us to further disclose our findings and should serve to draw increased attention from the scientific community as to the benefits of chromium."
The company indicated that under confidentiality agreements, it has shared Diachrome study data with key medical experts at XL Health and within the Native American community where higher than normal rates of diabetes have been diagnosed. "We are encouraged by their feedback," Montgomery reported, "as a result we have entered into discussions with XL Health to initiate a medically supervised pilot program using Diachrome as a component of diabetes care. We have also agreed to initiate a physician managed pilot program to use Diachrome in clinical practice at a tribal health center. This program is expected to begin before the end of our fiscal year. These are both important steps in securing wide scale adoption of Diachrome for use in medical practice."
Montgomery continued, "According to the International Diabetes Federation, there are currently more than 194 million people with diabetes worldwide. Without action, this number is expected to exceed 333 million by 2025. There is a great need for safe, effective and affordable solutions to the global diabetes epidemic. Given our research findings which suggest that Diachrome can significantly improve blood glucose and measures of cardiovascular risk associated with diabetes, as well as our pending international patent protection, we believe we are now well-positioned to participate in the global diabetes care market. We have a robust regulatory strategy that is international in scope. Accordingly, we have begun the process of registering our product for sale in Canada and the European Union. We are also in discussions with potential licensees for certain international markets as we concurrently prepare for the initial commercialization of Diachrome in the United States."
"We believe that our improving financial results signal that our chromium communications outreach program is beginning to resonate with consumers and healthcare practitioners alike," stated Montgomery. "Our chromium research program has generated exciting outcomes that are slated for presentation and publication in calendar 2005. Two new studies will be presented at the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology in April 2005, and an oral presentation and a symposium are slated for the American Psychiatric Association meeting in May 2005. We plan to leverage the unveiling of this research to further stimulate the continued growth of the chromium mineral category and our expansion into functional foods" Montgomery concluded.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Qualified Health Claim (QHC) Update:
The company reported that it has agreed to a request for an additional 60 day extension from the FDA regarding the company's application for QHCs for chromium picolinate. The FDA indicated it was unable to complete its review within the initial extension period. Nutrition 21 applied for qualified health claims associating chromium picolinate with reduced risk of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and related disease conditions in December 2003.
