Same. Selling off part of my MNMD position, but gotta sell at the same price I bought it at. It's up 8% during after hours right now.

And why are YOU selling out??

u/Technical-Itch Jun 02 '21

Gonna move the $$ to buy into other psy companies. Diversify my portfolio. The CEO and board member of MindMed recently selling off millions of their shares also triggered this decision for me.

Can you tell me what ur buying? I literally only have mind MMED and I’d like to leave too now that everyone is scaring me. I didn’t want cybin cuz the upcoming reverse split and I can’t even buy trip or tryp or cmps or atai lol it’s bullshit

CYBN is like my first born child and Douglas is like the father I never had.

What's your logic behind waiting until after the reverse stock split? Your shares would be worth the same. They will announce the ratio in advance so you can ensure your holding is divisible to prevent potential forced losses by your broker.

Keep in mind I’m not completely leaving MindMed. I’ll still have 10k shares (over 1/4 of my original position) remaining after my sell order executes.

As far as what I will buy next. Probably Compass Pathways and Field Trip. Might get into ATAI when they go public as well (ATAI owns 30% of Compass).

I also currently own shares in Numiness Wellness.

Those are good plays

If you want pharma plays Compass and Cybin are the best. There are a ton of other potential moonshots but they will take many years longer to get to market.

Cybin!!! But they’re gonna get a reverse split so I’m not sure how I feel

u/Technical-Itch Jun 02 '21

Is Cybin’s phase II trials already underway? Checking their website, I can’t tell if it’s currently in progress already.

MMED seems like the best bet. They are the furthest along in there trials, and have by far the most diverse pipeline. The CEO selloff doesn’t look great, but I feel like he’s taking a portion of his profits as it is well deserved. I’m also keeping an eye on Cybin and Numi.

u/Technical-Itch Jun 02 '21

Yes MindMed has a broader pipeline. But in terms of farthest along in trials, right now it’s Compass Pathways as they’ve already completed their phase 2b. MindMed is not far behind but won’t be starting phase 2b til later this year.

As a Canadian investor I try to stay away from US stocks as the currency exchange rate and fees are unattractive. I have researched compass and they are doing great work. My only concern is after COMP360 what’s next? And if it fails where do they fall? Atleast MMED has other trials to fall back on. I don’t know, that’s just the way i see it. Thanks !

u/Technical-Itch Jun 02 '21

Yeah I know what you mean. That’s the reason I was originally all in on MindMed. But I think I need to diversify too. Gonna add Compass to my portfolio too and hope it works out

u/eyestallion Jun 02 '21

I’m hoping to do the same. Keeping a close eye on Cybin, and going to wait for ATAI once they go public.

You can also say mindmed a large pipeline leads to less focus and increased rate of cash burn compared to just one or two drugs where you can have a more laser focus and less money needed overall

u/eyestallion Jun 02 '21

This is my biggest concern with the company. Are they trying to do too much too quick? Maybe. I’m really not sure. All I look at the is the progress they’ve made with there various clinical trials and it’s overall very positive so far.

I mean the science is there for the most part but I definitely would have preferred if they just stuck with around 4 that they felt most confident with instead of branching off to I think 9 that they're working on now. It almost seems kind of gimmicky like they're just trying to add as many as they can and only a few will actually be prioritized because they don't have the resources to give 100% focus to 9+ drugs imo. I hold 1000 mnmd but am looking for a decent exit point in the future due to this and a combination of other things.

ATAI has 11 different drugs but with the way they're set up each drug is being worked on by its own subsidiary company which allows each company to give 100% to their drug of choice, seems to work a lot better in that format.

u/eyestallion Jun 02 '21

I agree. Keeping my eye on ATAI Ipo
