    Elan get a scare once a year that kills their price in the short term. I'd wait for the next panic and buy it.

    Wait for the next crisis and buy.Some of the products that are in the devlopment stage for Elan could be serious earners in the future.Granted I know little about stocks etc but I know though my lecturers that they will certainly not go bankrupt anytime soon.

    I wrote about my reasons for buying elan shares here:

    I personally feel that if you are buying equities at the moment you are in for the long term. The quick cash would be in shorting the market. But its risky.
