You either become rich with a head full of hair, or poor and bald.

Best to err on the side of caution I suppose. I'll probably put in a few hundred and see what comes of it.

Can someone explain why people here are investing in this stock?

Also, what are you waiting for in terms of news that make you all rich? A trial of some sort?

There are three reasons people invest in baby biotech growth stocks:

1) They actually "understand" the product being developed and have high hopes and/or a strong belief for its success.
2) Pure speculation. Biotech growth stocks tend to have swings in value, but when very positive news is released they increase substantially in price.
3) They are trading those swings. For instance not too long REPCF was trading around $2 and about 1.5 weeks later it was trading at $2.60 - that 30% rise is pretty substantial.


What are we waiting for? Well, considering the context of the forum - we're in the #1 crowd.

But what's so promising about this treatment, in a nutshell? Also, what's the timeline for finding out whether it's the real McCoy?

Not very helpful if I'm honest

I'm researching this but anyone who's prepared to answer the specific questions, I'd appreciate it.

I see now that end of March is the results of the current trials.

Looks promising.

You've got to check out the Replicel threads mate. Information regarding Replicel has been iterated again and again. There's one more besides this one I believe. End of march is when they will be releasing a statement regarding efficacy of their phase I trial.

Also, does anyone know why the stock spiked at upper $20-$30 between 2004 and 2006 before plunging towards $1 for a few years?

Obviously we had the late 2000s stock market crash, but that wasn't until the end of 2007.

Ok, I'm going over all of this stuff now. There goes my plans for a productive Friday

Still, I'd be very interested in finding out why the stock has had such a rollercoaster history over the last decade.
