I am somewhat puzzled as well by the market's reaction. I would have expected $6 at a minimum for today. The only new thought I can suggest is that is that when I read the news release I found it difficult to understand the import because it was so very technical in nature. Thanks to some of the contributors on this board I was able to have a better idea of its significance. I suspect the market will also need some time to understand this.
I would also expect that when Dr. Mungall's report is released then the market will have a better idea of the huge significance of this find, and will react accordingly.
