Product Review  

RNAi is a great technology that will create a great drug pipeline.  Alnylam is at the forefront, as is Sirna, which I would have bought had I done my proper research and Merck beat me to the punch with an acquisiton.

The risk here is classic biotech risk - can they actually produce working/approvable therapeutics and how much cash will it take to get them there?

This is a long-term hold - ALNY will have volatility, but is an option with tons of upside at the end of the day.
