I'm not the kind of narcissistic psychopath who enjoys leading a Twitter stock cult, but if I was my chosen stock would be Akebia. I closed my recent outperform rating at a big loss in order to write an updated pitch, but in real life zzporte… More

I five years will be 100 stock. One of the most common complications of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is chronic Anemia. Since Erythropoietin is produced in the kidneys. Current treatment (Epogen) has a lot of drawbacks. An oral alternative will be a God-send. The market is huge. Already this new drug has been proven to acheive the required hemoglobin level within 24 weeks of once day pill. Most likely we have a WINNER. May 2020 is the end of Phase III trial. I think AKBA is not looking back from this point onward.

Investing in small biotechs reminds me of watching Dave Kingman swing the bat- the result was either a strikeout or a homerun with many more of the former. With that caveat in mind this is what I like about AKBA. It is well capitalized having partnerships with larger companies in different markets. I think- and hope I'm wrong- the incidence of CRF is likely to increase. The next time you drive by a schoolyard observe how many of our children are obese- obesity leads to type 2 diabetes and hypertension- the 2 leading causes of CRF. It is therefore likely we will need drugs that treat the associated anemia- particularly if they have fewer side effects than the erythropoetin-oriented drugs. Given the likely expanding market it is also likely that several of the Big Pharma companies will want a horse in this race. Some of them have their own drugs in development and some don't. If I'm the ceo of one of these have-not companies and I want to be competitive in this space I'm likely to look to acquire a smaller company with a drug in phase 3 studies that has shown proven efficacy. I may even be willing to pay a premium price for it.
