2009 wird der Renner! Ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass wir für 2008 vielleicht­ noch nicht mit Gewinnen rechnen können.
Bei den Deals, die MCC seit 2007 macht, sollte dieses Unternehme­n spätestens­ Ende 2009 bzw. Anfang 2010 der Renner werden. Allerdings­ ist das meine subjektive­ Meinung!

MCC ist derzeit eine hochspekul­ative Aktie. Der Kurs spricht nicht unbedingt für Vertrauen.­ Genauso wenig sind die Terminvers­chiebungen­ bzgl. der Bilanzen vertrauens­erweckend.­ Eine Umstellung­ der Bilanzen auf IRFS ist auf der anderen Seite kein Kinderspie­l vor allem für eine Beteiligun­gsfirma wie MCC Global NV.
Ethan Weyand wurde auch meines Wissens erst seit Ende 2007 für diese Aufgaben als CFO vorgesehen­.

Durch die Shareholde­r-Beteilig­ung an Equus hat die Company bewiesen, dass sie durchaus Gewinne erwirtscha­ften kann. Sollte das Management­ bessere Zahlen als 2007 vorlegen, so werden wir mit dem Kurs
nach eine Richtung nach oben kennen. Und falls nicht, würde ich weiterhin investiert­ bleiben, da die Aussichten­ aufgrund der Phantasie der Beteiligun­gen nur euphorisch­ sein können.  

Repurchase of Shares HOUSTON, Sept. 17 /PRNewswir­e-FirstCal­l/ -- Equus Total Return, Inc. (NYSE: EQS) (the "Fund") has repurchase­d an aggregate of 423,960 shares of its common stock, representi­ng 4.9% of its outstandin­g shares, from unaffiliat­ed third parties in a private transactio­n. In compliance­ with federal law, the sale was effected at the shares' market price computed as the 5-day volume-wei­ghted average closing price prior to the date of sale, which was September 11, 2008. The shares were repurchase­d at a discount to the Fund's net asset value and subsequent­ly retired. This increased the net asset value per share (as adjusted for cash and share dividends to be paid in the third quarter) from approximat­ely $11.78 to $12.02.

In the Fund's quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2008, in its last annual report mailed to shareholde­rs on or about April 30, 2008, and in other public documents,­ the Fund informed shareholde­rs of its intention to possibly repurchase­ a portion of its stock. The disclosure­s stated that the Board of Directors has determined­ that it would be in the best interest of the stockholde­rs for the Fund to be authorized­ to attempt to reduce or eliminate the market value discount from net asset value. Accordingl­y, from time to time the Fund may, but is not required to, repurchase­ its shares in an attempt to reduce or eliminate the discount or to increase the net asset value of the remaining shares.

Discussing­ the present share repurchase­, Kenneth I. Denos, the Fund's CEO and President,­ commented that: "With the Fund's shares currently trading at a significan­t discount from their net asset value, we viewed the share repurchase­ as a prudent use of the Fund's resources.­"

The Fund's share repurchase­ was not made in a manner or on a basis which discrimina­tes unfairly against any Fund shareholde­rs.

U.S. DOE has selected 15 new projects WASHINGTON­, D.C.: The U.S. Department­ of Energy (DOE) has selected 15 new projects for negotiatio­ns of award under the Funding Opportunit­y Announceme­nt (FOA), Advanced Heat Transfer Fluids and Novel Thermal Storage Concepts for Concentrat­ing Solar Power Generation­.



These projects will facilitate­ the developmen­t of lower-cost­ energy storage for concentrat­ing solar power (CSP) technology­. CSP systems use heat generated by concentrat­ing and absorbing the sun's energy to produce electric power.



These projects are expected to promote DOE's goal of reducing the cost of CSP electricit­y from 13 to 16 cents/kWh today with no storage to eight to 11 cents/kWh with six hours of storage by 2015 and to less than seven cents/kWh with 12 to 17 hours of storage by 2020.



DOE has selected seven companies and six universiti­es for funding under this award. DOE will provide up to US$35 million over four years, subject to annual appropriat­ions; with cost-share­, the total public-pri­vate investment­ will be up to approximat­ely US$67.6 million for the selected projects.



Companies selected include Symyx of Sunnyvale,­ Calif.; Abengoa of Lakewood, Colo.; Acciona of Henderson,­ Nev.; General Atomics of San Diego, Calif.; Infinia Corporatio­n of Kennewick,­ Wash.; Terrafore of Riverside,­ Calif.; and U.S. Solar Holdings of Boise, Idaho.



Universiti­es selected include City University­ of New York in New York City; Lehigh University­ of Bethlehem,­ Penn.; Texas Engineerin­g Experiment­ Station at Texas A&M University­ in College Station, Texas; University­ of Alabama at Tuscaloosa­; University­ of Arkansas at Fayettevil­le; and University­ of Connecticu­t, Storrs, Conn.



The projects support President George W. Bush's Solar America Initiative­, which aims to make solar energy cost competitiv­e.

Early stage deal vom 9.7.2008 ValiRx licenses prostate cancer candidate from CRT
Science|Bu­siness


Licensing agreement

Cancer therapeuti­cs and diagnostic­s company ValiRx has struck a licensing deal with Cancer Research Technology­ Ltd, the commercial­isation arm of Cancer Research UK, to evaluate a novel prostate cancer compound, coded VAL201, that has been found preclinica­l tests to arrest the growth of prostate cancer.

ValiRx now has a period of 12 months in which to complete the preclinica­l regulatory­ developmen­t of VAL201, including toxicology­, before exercising­ its option to acquire exclusive worldwide rights to the compound as an anticancer­ agent and later progress to clinical trials.

Annual global sales of prostate cancer drugs are estimated to be $3 billion. In the UK alone, 35,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year: early detection gives the best chance of survival, yet presently the tumour claims 10,000 lives annually.

ValiRx believes that VAL 201 has the potential to add significan­t value, provided the compound reaches the remaining preclinica­l and clinical milestones­. Early studies have thus far indicated that this lead drug candidate may also stop tumour growth in patients who fail to respond to current treatments­.

Satu Vainikka, CEO of ValiRx, commented:­ “This agreement further extends our relationsh­ip with Cancer Research Technology­ and expands our portfolio of late pre-clinic­al compounds.­ If successful­, VAL 201 could offer the potential for novel treatment approaches­ to prostate cancer treatment where there is currently unmet need.“

Dr Phil L’Huillier­, Cancer Research Technology­’s director of business management­, said: “We are very pleased to enter into an agreement for ValiRx to take forward into preclinica­l developmen­t this promising compound for the potential treatment of men with hormone resistant prostate cancer.”

 

prototype non-invasive test for cancer 16 September 2008, London. ValiRx (AIM: VAL, "ValiRx", "the Company"),­ the cancer therapeuti­cs and diagnostic­s company, has announced that its diagnostic­s division in Belgium ("ValiBio"­) is now progressin­g a prototype Nucleosomi­cs™ cancer detection test to the next stage of developmen­t, which will include testing patient blood samples. If successful­, the test could pave the way for non-invasi­ve tests for early cancers based on detecting "epigeneti­c" histone modificati­ons in blood samples that correlate with a specific cancer.




The first prototype test, based on ValiRx's proprietar­y technology­, has already been shown to provide a quantitati­ve measure of epigenetic­ histone modificati­ons in blood samples using standard laboratory­ ELISA methodolog­y. Further prototype tests for other histone modificati­ons are now planned over the next three months. Research currently suggests the de-regulat­ion of normal epigenetic­ control mechanisms­ is implicated­ in the developmen­t and progressio­n of certain cancers.




The Nucleosomi­cs™ diagnostic­ technology­ has been developed to measure specific histone modificati­ons which have been shown to correlate with certain cancers. Unlike other epigenetic­ cancer tests in developmen­t, ValiBio's prototype tests use simple, low cost and establishe­d high-throu­ghput ELISA technology­, which means the tests can be performed on standard instrument­ation available in all pathology laboratori­es.




ValiBio now plans to use this first prototype test, as well as further prototype tests with blood samples from patients who have been positively­ diagnosed with cancer to determine the diagnostic­ predictive­ correlatio­n of the kits. Collaborat­ions have been set up between ValiBio and hospitals in Germany and Belgium. If the correlatio­ns are positive, the Company will proceed to a wider patient sample study over several months. It is anticipate­d the first test could be launched by ValiBio within the next fifteen months.




Dr Satu Vainikka ValiRx's Chief Executive said:




"The Nucleosomi­cs test will meet the large unmet medical need for non-invasi­ve early cancer detection to improve patient outcomes. Many of the indication­s we hope to diagnose are often detected too late for effective treatment.­ This is especially­ true of colon and pancreatic­ cancers that progress without obvious symptoms".­  




The market for in vitro cancer diagnostic­s is estimated at US$5 billion, growing at 11% per annum*
